He reigned through the virtue of Wood. His capital was at Wanqiu (now Chenzhou in the Circuit of Bianliang, commandery name Huaiyang; the territory of Yu Province in the 'Tribute of Yu'). In high antiquity, human beings pursued birds and beasts, eating their meat and wearing their hides, which was difficult to attain. Taihao taught the people to make nets, so as to hunt, fish, and raise the six domestic animals; furthermore, because he used sacrificial animals to make offerings to the gods and spirits, he was called the Paoxi ('Kitchen Sacrifice') Clan. Later generations called him the Fuxi Clan. He was the first to draw the eight trigrams and create written tallies, from which documents and records arose. He recorded his officers using dragons. He was on the throne for one hundred and sixteen years. The Book of Changes states: 'Fuxi hollowed out wood to make boats, and shaved wood to make oars.' The Qin Cao states: 'Fuxi created the zither to cultivate the person and regulate the nature, returning to one's natural authenticity.' The Tongli states: 'Fuxi created the twenty-five-stringed se zither to establish the rituals of marriage.' The Tujing states: 'Paoxi was born in Chengji County, Qinzhou, in the Circuit of Gongchang, Shaanxi; his mother was Huaxu; it is within the territory of Yong Province in the "Tribute of Yu". In Huozhou, Hezhong Superior Prefecture, in the Circuit of Jinning, there is the Funiu Terrace, the place where Fuxi tamed oxen and rode horses. The tomb of Nüwa is located there (the territory of Ji Province). In Luzhou, Huaxi, there is an ancient temple to Nüwa.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.61](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2037.1.61) - [Next: 1.63](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2037.1.63) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2037.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2037~en-mt.1.62) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2037.1.62](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2037.1.62) · Pramāṇa
