Abstract

There is a branch of the Jurchen tribe in Qishan, Shaanxi. To this day, inscriptions have been preserved in the village's ancestral hall, recording the lineage of the ancestors and proving the origin of this descendant. In addition, the customs that followed are the legacy of the memory of their ancestors. After hundreds of years of development and change, the Wanyan clan descendants of the Jurchens were integrated into the Han Chinese population. Based on field research, this paper analyses the development and changes of the Jurchen Wanyan descendants from an ethnological perspective.
