  the 
  Jun<jj 
  of 
  the 
  T'ang-she 
  north 
  of 
  the 
  Wei, 
  between 
  Ssu-yuan 
  and 
  

   Hsing-p^ingj; 
  the 
  Chilian 
  Jung, 
  between 
  the 
  mouths 
  of 
  the 
  Wei 
  and 
  

   of 
  the 
  Lo 
  ; 
  the 
  Ta-li 
  of 
  T^ung-chou, 
  subdued 
  only 
  in 
  461 
  ; 
  the 
  P'eng-hsi 
  

   of 
  Po-shui 
  on 
  the 
  banks 
  of 
  the 
  Lo 
  ; 
  and 
  the 
  Li 
  Jung 
  in 
  the 
  foothills 
  

   of 
  the 
  Hua 
  Shan, 
  who 
  on 
  the 
  north 
  reached 
  the 
  banks 
  of 
  the 
  Wei 
  

   near 
  the 
  modern 
  Wei-nan, 
  a 
  vestige 
  of 
  the 
  time 
  when 
  not 
  only 
  the 
  

   mountains 
  but 
  the 
  plain 
  also 
  formed 
  part 
  of 
  the 
  Jung 
  domain, 
  

   before 
  the 
  Chinese 
  had 
  yet 
  arrived 
  and 
  driven 
  them 
  out 
  or 
  assimi- 
  

   lated 
  them. 
  The 
  Li 
  Jung 
  were 
  in 
  touch 
  on 
  the 
  east 
  with 
  the 
  Chiang 
  

   Jung, 
  who 
  dominated 
  the 
  Yellow 
  River 
  along 
  its 
  southern 
  bank 
  

   above 
  Chen. 
  All 
  the 
  hill 
  country 
  bctv/een 
  the 
  Valley 
  of 
  the 
  Huang 
  

   Ho 
  and 
  its 
  tributaries, 
  the 
  Lo, 
  the 
  Yi, 
  etc., 
  as 
  far 
  as 
  the 
  Huai 
  Moun- 
  

   tains, 
  was 
  likewise 
  peopled 
  by 
  the 
  Jung 
  — 
  the 
  Jung 
  of 
  the 
  Lo, 
  of 
  the 
  

   Yi, 
  of 
  Yang-chiu, 
  of 
  Man 
  or 
  Mao, 
  etc. 
  They 
  surrounded 
  the 
  eastern 
  

   capital 
  of 
  the 
  kings 
  of 
  the 
  Chou 
  dynasty, 
  the 
  town 
  of 
  the 
  Lo, 
  or 
  Lo-yi, 
  

   situated 
  near 
  the 
  modern 
  Honan-fu, 
  which 
  they 
  sacked 
  in 
  the 
  seventh 
  

   century, 
  just 
  as 
  their 
  brethren 
  of 
  the 
  west 
  had 
  sacked 
  the 
  western 
  

   capital, 
  near 
  Hsi-an, 
  in 
  the 
  eighth. 
  

  

  Along 
  the 
  coastal 
  region 
  the 
  mountains 
  of 
  Shantung 
  were 
  peopled 
  

   by 
  the 
  Yi 
  barbarians, 
  certain 
  tribes 
  of 
  whom 
  persisted 
  down 
  to 
  the 
  

   end 
  of 
  the 
  feudal 
  period, 
  in 
  the 
  midst 
  of 
  their 
  congeners, 
  who 
  had 
  

   been 
  assimilated 
  by 
  degrees 
  and 
  not 
  by 
  brute 
  force, 
  and 
  who 
  had 
  

   established 
  real 
  Chinese 
  princij)alities, 
  such 
  as 
  Chiu, 
  Chi, 
  Chou-lu, 
  

   and 
  others. 
  More 
  to 
  the 
  south, 
  the 
  border 
  region 
  between 
  Shantung 
  

   and 
  Eaangsu 
  Provinces 
  was 
  held 
  by 
  the 
  Yi 
  of 
  Huai, 
  who 
  on 
  the 
  

   west 
  adjoined 
  the 
  Hsiu. 
  These 
  latter 
  must 
  originally 
  have 
  occupied 
  

   the 
  whole 
  country 
  between 
  the 
  Yellow 
  River 
  and 
  the 
  Huai 
  Moun- 
  

   tains, 
  along 
  the 
  middle 
  course 
  of 
  the 
  Huai 
  and 
  its 
  tributaries. 
  The 
  

   last 
  kings 
  of 
  the 
  Yin 
  dynasty, 
  around 
  the 
  eleventh 
  century 
  B. 
  C, 
  

   had 
  relations 
  with 
  them, 
  and 
  somewhat 
  later 
  their 
  name 
  was 
  given 
  

   to 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  nine 
  Provinces 
  into 
  which 
  the 
  great 
  conqueror 
  kings 
  

   of 
  the 
  Chou 
  dynasty, 
  Chao 
  and 
  Mu, 
  about 
  the 
  ninth 
  century 
  B. 
  C, 
  

   divided 
  their 
  ephemeral 
  empire. 
  By 
  the 
  beginning 
  of 
  the 
  historical 
  

   period, 
  however, 
  beaten 
  now 
  on 
  the 
  north 
  by 
  the 
  princes 
  of 
  Lu, 
  now 
  

   on 
  the 
  west 
  by 
  the 
  dukes 
  of 
  Sung, 
  their 
  neighbors, 
  they 
  survived 
  

   only 
  in 
  the 
  eastern 
  part 
  of 
  their 
  former 
  domain, 
  around 
  the 
  present 
  

   Hsii-chou, 
  leaving 
  behind 
  them 
  in 
  the 
  west 
  only 
  fragments 
  of 
  them- 
  

   selves. 
  Of 
  these, 
  the 
  most 
  important, 
  the 
  Jung 
  of 
  Hsiu, 
  held 
  the 
  

   country 
  around 
  the 
  great 
  bend 
  of 
  the 
  Yellow 
  River 
  between 
  K^ai-feng 
  

   and 
  Ch'ao-chou 
  and 
  were 
  finally 
  subjugated 
  only 
  in 
  668 
  B. 
  C. 
  

  

  Lastly, 
  the 
  whole 
  basin 
  of 
  the 
  Yangtse 
  was 
  peopled 
  by 
  barbarians 
  

   grouped 
  together 
  under 
  the 
  general 
  name 
  of 
  Man; 
  brought 
  rather 
  

   late 
  under 
  Chinese 
  influence, 
  after 
  the 
  conquests 
  of 
  the 
  ninth 
  cen- 
  

   tury 
  B. 
  C, 
  and 
  quickly 
  regaining 
  their 
  independence, 
  they 
  kept 
  it 
  till
