Brief introduction of Xie jiapu

The earliest recorded Xie's genealogy is the Xie's genealogy quoted by Liu in the Southern Dynasties when he annotated Shi Shuo Xin Yu, which can be divided into Chen Xia Xie's and Hui Ji Xie's. Seven places in the book quoted the genealogy of the former, and one place quoted the genealogy of the latter. Based on a comprehensive analysis of all the quotations, the basic contents of these two genealogies include names, names, inheritance relations, official titles, marriages, children, child marriages and so on. At that time, society paid special attention to genealogy. Not only did the court choose officials to search genealogy, but society also chose women and husbands according to genealogy. In order to prevent counterfeiting, the state has also set up a genealogy bureau, and there are also families in society who specialize in compiling and studying genealogy. Therefore, Xie's earliest genealogy may be compiled by the official according to the information provided by Xie, and the earliest time will not exceed after the founding of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
