Interpretation of the Yin (Yin) Surname Totem

【Meaning】

According to the Shuowen Jiezi: "Ying refers to the grandeur of music being performed." The left side of the character was originally the word for "body," depicting the spinning and swaying of a dancer. The right side is "Shu" (殳), representing a hand holding a wooden staff or mallet, symbolizing the instrument used by a musician. Together, they represent a magnificent performance of music and dance.

【Origins】

1. From the Zi (子) Surname (Lineage of Qi): The lineage descends from Qi (Xie), the son of Emperor Ku. It is a surname derived from the name of a state.

2. The Move to Yin: During the Shang Dynasty, King Pan Geng moved the capital from Yan (present-day Qufu, Shandong) to Yin (present-day Anyang, Henan). Consequently, the dynasty became known as "Yin" or "Yin Shang."

3. Adoption of the Surname: After the fall of the Yin Shang dynasty, the remaining subjects and royal descendants adopted the name of their fallen country as their surname, becoming the Yin clan. With a history of over 3,000 years, it is one of China's most ancient and venerable surnames.

殷氏圖騰釋義

【釋義】

《說文解字》中記載：「殷，作樂之盛，稱為殷」。殷字的左邊為「身」的原字，表現的是身體的旋轉，描繪舞者的姿態；右邊為「殳」，代表手持木棒或樂槌，是樂者的打擊樂器。合起來象徵著盛大且莊嚴的歌舞樂章。

【起源】

1. 源於子姓（帝喾嫡子契之後）： 屬於以國名為氏。殷氏的祖先可以追溯到商族的始祖——契（xiè）。

2. 盤庚遷殷： 商朝君主盤庚將國都從「奄」（今山東曲阜）遷到了「殷」（今河南安陽），因此商朝也被稱為「殷朝」或「殷商」。

3. 以國為姓： 殷商滅亡後，原來的商朝遺民與王族後裔為了紀念故國，便以國號「殷」為姓氏。該支殷氏已有三千多年的歷史，是中華民族最為古老的姓氏之一。
