Visible,This paragraph of "North Classics",Qi outline a departure from Kyushu Island, Japan,via the Korean Peninsula and Liaodong Peninsula,Then cross the Bohai Sea via the temple Island,Finally arrived at the maritime traffic line on the Shandong Peninsula。This route runs along the coast and islands all the way,and the direction of the warm current of the yellow sea in the ring of the yellow sea,Forms a natural Ringhai route that communicates Northeast Asia。Archaeologists on Miaojima Islands、Dalian Changshan Islands have discovered the cultural relics of Dawenkou culture and Longshan culture,Explain that as early as the Neolithic period,There are already boats on the temple Island Islands。

bet365 best casino games "Shan Hai Jing" records about Miaojima routes,Not only is it seen in the "North Classic of the Northern Classics","Dongshan Jing" in "Shan Jing" has more detailed records。"Dongshan Jing" records the mountain geography of the Shandong Peninsula,Among them, the third "East Sanxian Classic" records nine mountains,Nine Mountains arranged from north to south,Activalent Hu Zhishan、Qishan、Mountains of Hook、Mount Father's Mountain、Hushan Mountain、Menzi Mountain、Mountain of 跂、Mountain of Laurea、Mountain of Wulin。It is worth noting that,Scriptures say that these nine mountains are "water row",Eight hundred miles from the corpse Hu Zhishan to the south is Qishan,Five hundred miles from Qishan to the south is the hook hook mountain ... These nine mountains are actually islands in the sea,The island of Miaojima Islands is located on the Bohaikou route.,The nine islands are the Jiushan of the "Eastern Three Classics"。The southernmost part of the southernmost part is called Wuyao Mountain,Ascend this mountain,"Nanwang Youhai,Dongwang Aoyu "。Youhai is Shaohai again,In the ancient book, refers to Laizhou Bay, northern Shandong,Tochigi is Fuki、Fusang,In the ancient book, the place where the oriental sunrise is in the ancient book,That is the east of the eastern end of the Shandong Peninsula。Except describing the distance between Nine Mountains、relative orientation,"Eastern Three Classics" also records animals on the mountain、Plants、Landform and water source (spring water),The author of this book is very familiar with the geography of the temple Island。

Ancient Jiaodong is an important silk origin,"Yugong" said: "Lai Yi is making a herd,Jue 篚 檿。"The Jiaodong Peninsula belonged to Lai State during the Spring and Autumn Pencing,Laei is Jiaodong。檿 柞 柞,also known as Shan Sang,Silk silk is a silk silk。This record description,Jiaodong has produced silk silk since ancient times,柞 Sang as a special product of Laiyi,Since you can tribute to the court,Naturally, it can also be used for trade。Lubei Weifang area,The silkworm industry still exists,It has been listed as one of the national intangible cultural heritage projects。Ancient period,Merchants from the Northeast and Farters bring fur,Replace the silk,Silk Road, which forms a route around Northeast Asian route。The book of "Shan Hai Jing" is not later than the Warring States Period,The Northeast Asian trade route it records should be opened for a long time before the "Shan Hai Jing" mature,It should be said,This is a more old -fashioned maritime Silk Road than the Western Silk Road and the Southern Maritime Silk Road。

The navigator of the ancient East and North Asia did not stop in Penglai,This route continues to extend south along the Pacific West Bank。"The East Classic of the Nland" and "Southern Sutra" continues to continue the "North Classic of bet365 best casino games the North",Mention a series of place names in the sea: Langya Terrace、Yuzhou、Cangwu、Han Yan、Shi Dove、辕、Huiji Mountain、瓯、Fujian、Three Sky Soning Mountain、Fanyu, etc.。Among these place names,Han Yan、Shi Dove、辕。瑘 瑘 is now Langya Terrace in the south of Qingdao,Here,Gou Jian has built the capital here,Qin Shihuang once sacrificed God here,Leave the famous Langya carved stone。Yuzhou、Cangwu is located in the current Lianyungang,Huiji Mountain is an island near Shaoxing, Zhejiang,It is likely to be today's Zhoushan Islands。瓯、Minjin is the abbreviation of Wenzhou and Fujian Province,But 瓯 in the book、Fujian is in the sea,Refers to Wenzhou today、Two islands on the coast of Fuzhou。Three Tianzi Shengshan is also in the sea,It is difficult to determine which islands refer to which islands,When it is an island on the coast of Zhejiang。Fan Yan is Panyu,Guangzhou ancient name Panyu,Qin Shihuang built Nanhai County,is Panyu as the capital。These records of "Domestic East Classics" and "Southern Sutra" indicate,This route starting from Northeast Asia continues southward through the southeast of the Shandong Peninsula,Passing Jiangsu、Zhejiang、Island on the coast of Fujian,Always extended to the coast of Guangdong,From the Yellow Sea、Bohai,East China,Finally enter South China Sea。
