The origin of New Year's Day

Around 5, BC, the ancient Egyptians changed from nomadism to farming and settled on both sides of the Nile, and their agricultural harvest was closely related to whether there was a flood in the Nile. From long-term observation, the ancient Egyptians found that the time of Nile flooding was regular, so they recorded this time on bamboo poles every time, from which they learned that the interval between the two flooding times was about 365 days; At the same time, it was also found that when the rising tide of the Nile came near Cairo today, it was just the time when the sun and Sirius rose from the horizon at the same time. Therefore, the ancient Egyptians set this day as the beginning of the year. This is the earliest origin of New Year's Day.

New Year's Day is a compound word in Chinese, and yuan means beginning or first. Dan is an pictograph, which means that the sun rises from the horizon. There are pictographs of Dan on the bronzes of the Yin and Shang Dynasties in China.

Every year on January 1st of the Gregorian calendar, people call it "New Year's Day". Why?

It turns out that in Chinese, "yuan" is the beginning, that is, the first; "Dan" means a day or morning, and the two words together mean the first day of the New Year. But this is not fixed from the beginning.

the origin of new year's day

in the calendar, people are used to saying that the earth revolves around the sun once for one year. However, because there is no fixed starting point and ending point for the earth to move around the sun, the starting point and ending point of a year are artificially specified, which leads to the inconsistency of various calendars. According to legend, the word "New Year's Day" comes from Zhuan Xu, one of the earliest emperors in China. He stipulated that the first month of the lunar calendar should be "Yuan" and the first day should be "Dan". Later, some dynasties changed the date of New Year's Day, but in principle, the first day of each year was still regarded as New Year's Day, such as the first day of the first month in Xia Dynasty, but the first day of December in Shang Dynasty, the first day of November in Zhou Dynasty and the first day of October in Qin Dynasty. It was not until Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty that the great historian Sima Qian and others reformulated the calendar, and stipulated that the first day of the first month of the first month of each year was New Year's Day, which has not changed since then.

After the success of the Revolution of p>1911, it was decided to adopt the internationally accepted Gregorian calendar, so the Lunar New Year's Day was changed to "Spring Festival" and January 1st of the Gregorian calendar was called New Year's Day. When New China was founded, the "AD Chronology Law" was officially used, and January 1st of the Gregorian calendar was designated as New Year's Day.

Now, most countries in the world regard January 1st as New Year's Day, because they mostly adopt the internationally accepted Gregorian calendar. However, some countries and ethnic groups have different New Year's Day dates because of their local calendar traditions, religious beliefs, customs and seasonal climate, which makes the world colorful and more national.

New Year's Day is a traditional New Year for people all over the world. New Year's Day is the first day of the year. New Year's Day is a compound word. In terms of disassembly, Yuan means the first or the beginning, and the original meaning of Dan is that a red sun rises from the ground.

In China, the name of New Year's Day always refers to Zhuan Xu, one of the legendary three emperors and five emperors. He takes the first month of the lunar calendar as the yuan and the first day as the Dan. According to "Historical Records", the first day of the first month was regarded as New Year's Day in the Xia Dynasty. In the Zhou Dynasty, the first day of November was New Year's Day. Qin takes the first day of October as New Year's Day. After the Revolution of 1911, China called the first day of the first month the Spring Festival, and January 1st of the Gregorian calendar the New Year, not New Year's Day. It was not until September 27th, 1949, when the first plenary session of China People's Political Consultative Conference adopted the method of calendar year, that January 1st of Gregorian calendar was officially designated as New Year's Day, and the first day of the first lunar month was designated as Spring Festival.

The ancestor of the lunar calendar, the Egyptian calendar, regards the day when Sirius rises with the sun as New Year's Day; Afghanistan regards the vernal equinox as New Year's Day; Jews regard the autumnal equinox as New Year's Day; However, the New Year's Day of Eskimos in cold regions is not fixed. They regard the first rain as New Year's Day. In 46 BC, the Roman emperor Julius Caesar formulated the julian calendar, and at the beginning he took the winter solstice as New Year's Day. However, people insisted on taking Shuori as New Year's Day, so they postponed New Year's Day to 1 days after the winter solstice. !
