Who first invented wine, who invented it, and when did it first come to be known?

1. The legend of the origin of sake brewing In ancient times, the origin of sake brewing was often attributed to the invention of someone, and these people were said to be the ancestors of sake brewing, and because of their great influence, it became an orthodox view. For these views, the Song Dynasty "Wine Spectrum" once raised doubts, believing that "none of them are enough to study the evidence, and it is too redundant". Although this is not enough evidence, as a phenomenon of cultural identity, it may be listed below.

There are mainly the following legends. 1. Yidi winemaking According to legend, Yidi invented winemaking during the Xia Yu period. The second century BC history book "Lü's Spring and Autumn Period" cloud:

Yi Di makes wine". Liu Xiang's "Warring States Policy" of the Han Dynasty further explained: "In the past, the emperor ordered Yi Di to make wine and beauty, enter Yu, drink and be willing, day:."

There will be those who drink wine and go to the kingdom in the Hereafter. 'Then he soothed the ritual and gave up the wine. (Yu Nai Xia Dynasty Emperor) 2 Du Kang Brewing Another legend holds that winemaking began with Du Kang (also a person from the Xia Dynasty).

In the Eastern Han Dynasty's "Shuowen Jie Zi", it is explained: "In the entry of the word wine, Du Kang is a winemaker. The same is true in the World Book.

3. Winemaking began in the period of the Yellow Emperor Another legend indicates that people began to make wine in the time of the Yellow Emperor. The Han Dynasty book "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing 6 1 Su Wen" records the scene of the Yellow Emperor and Qi Bo discussing winemaking, and the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing" also mentions an ancient liquor, liquor, that is, a sweet wine made from animal milk. The Yellow Emperor is the common ancestor of the Chinese nation, and many inventions and creations appeared during the Yellow Emperor period.

The book "The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon" is actually the work of the Yellow Emperor under the name of later generations, and its credibility has yet to be verified.

Wine is a major drink created by people of all ethnic groups in the long-term historical development process. The oldest physical wine in the world is the wine unearthed in Samaritan, Iran, which is more than 3,000 years old and is still mellow; China's oldest physical wine is the Han Dynasty imperial wine unearthed in Xi'an, according to expert research is grain wine (there are also experts certified as rice wine, as a rice wine worker heard it for the leap, fortunately to the good!) It's still delicious and drinkable, which is amazing!

The Chinese oracle bone inscriptions have long appeared in the word wine and the words li, zun, and 酉 related to wine. This is evidence of the longevity of the wine. As for the records in literature and history, there are countless records, such as China's first poetry collection "Book of Songs", there are poems "that is, drunk with wine, that is, full of virtue" ("Daya, that is, drunk"), "Zhou Yi", "Zhou Li", "Rites", "Zuo Chuan" and other classics, there are more records about ancient wine customs, such as "Drinkers can support the elderly" ("Rites"), wine to become a ceremony" ("Zuo Chuan") and so on.

This shows that there are many uses for wine. It is indispensable in the customs of life. Legend has it that the man who invented wine was named Du Kang.

When he was working as a long-term worker, he once accidentally put sorghum rice in a tree hollow, and after a long time, it fermented into wine. That's why it was called "long" at first, and then the word "wine" came later. Add historical allusions to "wine".

It is not known when wine was produced.

Yi Di invented it, and he was a subordinate of Xia Yu.

In ancient times, Du Kang. The earliest appearance of wine in Chinese history can be traced back to the ancient period in myths and legends, the earliest Fuxi clan among the so-called "three emperors" of Fuxi, Suiren and Shennong. Du Kang is the legendary ancestor of winemaking in ancient China.

The earliest time that wine appeared was the Warring States period and the Spring and Autumn Period, and the first to invent wine was Du Kang, and in the Shang Dynasty, various varieties of wine began to slowly increase.

Chinese wine culture originated from the brewing of wine, and there are many folk theories about the origin of wine, such as Yidi winemaking, which is said to have been invented by Yidi during the Xia Yu period. There is such a record in the Warring States Policy"In the past, the emperor ordered Yi Di to make wine and enter the beauty of Yu. Yu drank and was willing, and then Shu Yi Di was absolutely unwilled, and the wine said that in the future, there will be those who will die with wine.

According to the records of "Shennong's Materia Medica", wine originated in ancient times and the Shennong era; In "The Eight Kinds of the World", there is "Yi Di's first work..."Shaokang makes straw wine", which seems to have been invented by Yidi and Shaokang.

Legend has it that it was invented by a man named Du Kang, and there was wine during the Yellow Emperor's time.

Legend has it that during the time of the Yellow Emperor, there was a man named Du Kang, who was specifically responsible for managing grain. At that time, with the development of agriculture, there was a bumper harvest of grain every year. However, there was too much food to eat, so they had to be stored in the cave, which was dark and damp, and after a long time, all the grain rotted.

Seeing this, Du Kang began to think hard about how to store grain.

On this day, Du Kang went for a walk in the woods and found a few dead trees, leaving only thick, empty trunks. Du Kang had an idea and poured all the grain into the dry trunk of the tree. After some time, Du Kang came to the woods to check on the grain, and he was surprised to find:

In front of the dead trees where the grain was stored, there were wild boars, goats, and rabbits, motionless, as if they were dead.

He hurriedly approached to see what was going on: the trunk of the tree that originally held the grain had cracked a few cracks, and water continued to seep from the inside out. It seems that the animals licked and ate the water before lying down.

But what kind of water is this, Du Kang leaned over to smell it, only to feel a fresh fragrance coming to his face, he couldn't help but taste a few sips of this strong perfume, and suddenly felt refreshed.

Later, Du Kang took the strong perfume home and invited everyone to taste it. In this way, wine gradually became popular among the people, and Du Kang was also revered as the "God of Wine".
