Origin of place names

According to Yang Guosheng, an expert in Hunan folklore and history, the place name of "Xuefeng Mountain" in Hunan has been established and recorded in history for only a hundred years. Before that, it was called "Meishan" in Song Dynasty. Before "Meishan" it was called "Chushan". Before "Chushan" it was called "Kuaijishan". Before "Kuaijishan" it was called "Kunlun Mountain" together with Wuling Mountain. The concept of modern "Kunlun Mountain" is different from that of ancient "Kunlun Mountain"

.

Meishan in narrow sense: it is the local name of Xinhua County belt in Anhua County of central Hunan, which has a long history. Anhua County was called Meicheng in ancient times. The so-called Meishan Navy generally refers to this area.

Generalized Meishan: the widest part of this mountain is in Anhua County, which was called Meicheng in ancient times. Therefore, Meishan is the official name of Xuefeng mountain in Hunan Province in ancient times (and Xuefeng mountain only refers to the main peak area of this mountain, which is generally called Xuefeng mountain. This large mountain range started in the period of the Republic of China and has only a hundred years of History). It is recorded in the biography of Meishan man in the history of Song Dynasty: "the Dongman in Meishan is thousands of miles away. It is connected with Tan (Tanzhou, now Changsha), Shao (Shaozhou, now Shaoyang), Chen (Chenzhou, now Yuanling) and Ding (Dingzhou, now Changde) in the East, South, West and North This Meishan mountain is located thousands of miles away (roughly estimated as the Great Wall), which is later called Xuefeng mountain area. The main line from Suining county to Yiyang County (now in the south of Yiyang City) is 350 km, with a land area of nearly 50000 square kilometers; the branch line is 80 km South to Danan mountain.
