The third origin of the Dragon Boat Festival, the festival of the dragon said. This statement comes from Wen Yiduo's "Dragon Boat Festival Examination" and "Dragon Boat Festival Historical Education". He believes that the fifth day of the fifth month of May is the day when the tribe of the "dragon" in the ancient Wuyue region held totem worship to their ancestors.

2) The relationship between the race and the ancient Wuyue place is particularly deep, and the people of Wuyue also have the custom of tattooing their hair "like a dragon". (3) In ancient times, on the fifth day of the fifth month of the fifth month, there was a folk custom of "colorful silk arm", which should be the remains of the tattoo custom of "like a dragon".

The fourth origin of the Dragon Boat Festival: the evil day said. According to the "Historical Records", Meng Weijun Tian Wen was born on the fifth day of the fifth month of the fifth month, and his father had ordered his mother to abandon Tian Wen on the grounds that the child born on this day wanted to kill his father.

The Eastern Han Dynasty's "Customs and Customs" also has a saying that "if a child is born on May 5, a man harms his father, and a woman harms his mother". The Eastern Jin Dynasty general Wang Zhen Evil was born on the fifth day of the fifth month, and his grandfather named him "Zhen Evil". Song Huizong Zhao Ju was born on the fifth day of the fifth month of May, and was fostered outside the palace since he was a child.

It can be seen that in ancient times, the fifth day of the fifth month of May was regarded as an evil day, which was a common phenomenon. In this way, on this day, it is logical to plant calamus and mugwort leaves to drive away ghosts, and to drink atractylodes, angelica angelica and realgar wine to avoid epidemics.

The fifth origin of the Dragon Boat Festival: the summer solstice said. Liu Deqian, who holds this view, put forward three main reasons in "The Origin of the Dragon Boat Festival" and "Interesting Talks on Traditional Chinese Festivals":

1) The authoritative book "Jing Chu Sui Ji Ji does not mention the festival custom of eating zongzi on the fifth day of the fifth month of May, but it writes about eating zongzi in the summer solstice festival. As for the ferry race, the "Jade Candle Treasure Book" made by Du Taiqing of the Sui Dynasty classified it as an entertainment activity on the summer solstice, which shows that it is not necessarily to salvage the great poet Qu Yuan who threw himself into the river. (2) Some contents in the customs of the Dragon Boat Festival, such as "stepping on a hundred grasses", "fighting a hundred grasses", "picking miscellaneous medicines", etc., actually have nothing to do with Qu Yuan.

3) The first explanation of the Dragon Boat Festival in the famous book "The Year of the Age" is: "The sun is the sun, and the summer is in the middle of the summer." That is, the Dragon Boat Festival is in the summer, so the Dragon Boat Festival can also be called the Tianzhong Festival.

From this point of view, the earliest origin of the Dragon Boat Festival is the summer solstice.

There are various theories about the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival, and the commemoration of Qu Yuan has the most extensive influence. Because of Qu Yuan's great personality and outstanding poetry, people are willing to attribute this anniversary to him.

It can be written from the perspective of inheriting and carrying forward traditional cultural customs, and it can also be written from the perspective of commemorating Qu Yuan's patriotism.

The Dragon Boat Festival is in honor of the patriotic poet Qu Yuan. Qu Yuan threw himself into the river on the fifth day of the fifth month of May and died. Therefore, the Dragon Boat Festival has the custom of making zongzi and the custom of talking about dragon boat racing. Legend has it that it was to drive away the fish in the river and prevent them from eating Qu Yuan's carcass.

The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as the Duanyang Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival, the Chongwu Festival, the Tianzhong Festival, etc., is a folk festival that integrates worshipping rotten gods and ancestors, praying for blessings and honoring the Liang to ward off evil spirits, celebrating entertainment and eating. The Dragon Boat Festival originated from the worship of celestial phenomena in the celebration of Yunran, and evolved from the dragon sacrifice in ancient times.

Not in honor of Qu Yuan.
