History of the Dragon Boat Festival:

The origin of the ancient traditional festival is related to ancient primitive beliefs, sacrificial culture, celestial phenomena, calendar and other humanistic and natural cultural contents. According to the research results of modern anthropology and archeology, there are two most primitive beliefs of mankind: one is the belief in heaven and earth, and the other is belief in ancestors. Most of the ancient festivals were formed when the ancients chose auspicious days to offer sacrifices to thank the gods of heaven and earth and the kindness of their ancestors.

The early festival culture reflected the ancient people's humanistic spirit of worshiping nature, consolidating roots and thinking about the source; a series of sacrificial activities contained profound cultural connotations of respect, morality, ritual and music civilization. The origin and development of the festival is a process of gradual formation, subtle improvement and popularization.

In ancient times, the customs of the north and the south were different. The customs of the Dragon Boat Festival in the pre-Qin Dynasty are rarely recorded in the Central Plains documents. It is impossible to directly verify their origins based on the existing documents. Regarding written records related to the Dragon Boat Festival, the word "Dragon Boat Festival" first appeared in "Feng Tu Ji" of the Jin Dynasty, but the customs of the Dragon Boat Festival have long existed, such as the custom of dragon boat racing and sacrifice.
