馮氏圖騰釋義 

【釋義】 馮，馬疾行也。其本義是駿馬奔騰、踏地有聲的象形字。 

【起源】 春秋後期，鄭國（都今河南新鄭）有個大夫叫馮簡子，史書說他「能斷大事」，當時子產為政，許多大事都同他商議。他的後代以他名字中的「馮」為姓氏，就是馮氏。再就是周文王姬昌後裔畢萬封魏，稱魏氏，魏氏子孫又有另封為華侯者，華侯之孫長卿，食采馮城（在今河南滎陽市西），因以邑為氏，稱馮氏，史稱馮氏正宗，故馮、魏兩姓為同一脈族。

Interpretation of the Feng Clan Totem 

[Definition] "Feng" (馮) signifies a horse galloping swiftly. Its original meaning is a pictograph representing a noble steed charging forward, with its hooves thundering against the ground.

[Origin] In the late Spring and Autumn period, there was a high official in the State of Zheng (capital in present-day Xinzheng, Henan) named Feng Jianzi. Historical records describe him as "capable of deciding great matters." When the statesman Zichan was in power, he consulted Feng Jianzi on many significant affairs. His descendants adopted "Feng" from his name as their surname. Another lineage traces back to Bi Wan, a descendant of King Wen of Zhou, who was enfeoffed in Wei and took the surname Wei. Among the descendants of the Wei clan was the Marquis of Hua; his grandson, Changqing, was granted the fief of Fengcheng (west of present-day Xingyang, Henan) for his sustenance. He adopted the name of his fief as his surname, becoming the Feng clan. This lineage is historically regarded as the "Orthodox Feng," meaning the Feng and Wei clans share the same ancestral bloodline.
