The origin of the name

Lingkou is one of the top ten towns in Danyang history. It was built in the Six Dynasties and has a long history. It is the main symbol of Xiaoliang culture.

Xiaoliang culture is a kind of tomb culture. Xiaogang is now called Xiaoliang River, which is an ancient river road named after the royal family name. The tombs of Qiliang are mostly on both sides of the river. During the Qi and Liang dynasties, Prince Gongqing paid a visit to the mausoleum. From the capital of Jiankang (now Nanjing City, the capital of song, Qi, Liang and Chen in the Eastern Jin and Southern Dynasties), Qinhuai River, along the pogangdu (an artificial canal in the Six Dynasties period), started from the south of the Shanxi side of Jiangning in the west, passed through the Jiangning lake and other places, entered the Jurong Chishan lake, crossed the Maoshan hills and Gangdi, reached today's Danyang, merged into the water network, and connected with Taiyuan in the East The stone beast guards the entrance of Xiaogang and becomes the mark of the entrance of the mausoleum area, so the mausoleum entrance is also named. It has a history of more than 1500 years.

A pair of Stone Beasts guarding the entrance of Xiaogang have been named Lingkou stone carvings. Now they occupy the East and west sides of Xiaoliang River in Lingkou market town. In the East is Tianlu, with two horns, 4 meters in length, 3.6 meters in residual height, 2 meters in neck height and 3.9 meters in body circumference; in the west is Qilin, with one horn, 3.95 meters in length, 2.9 meters in residual height, 1.7 meters in neck length and 3.6 meters in body circumference. It is the largest pair of existing stone carvings in the Southern Dynasty.

In 1956, due to the widening of the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal, Tianlu and Qilin, which are adjacent to the canal in the south, moved 450 meters parallel to the north along the Xiaoliang River and placed on a concrete base. When the Xiaoliang river was dredged in 1977, Qilin moved west another 70 meters.
