When the system of the Ming Dynasty changed, the people thought of the old emperor when they shaved their heads, so they said "thinking of the past." As the custom lasted for a long time, it was mistakenly translated as "dead uncle." Not shaving one's head in the first month of the year originally meant "thinking of the past." That is to say, when the Qing army entered the pass, they forced the Han people to shave their heads and keep their queues. However, the Han people, because they missed their homeland, agreed not to shave their heads in the first month of the year to show that they did not forget their old monarch, which became known as "nostalgia." 2. “No shaving in the first month of the lunar year” is also related to the importance that ancient Han people attached to hair. The "Book of Filial Piety" states: "The body and hair are given by parents. One should not damage them. This is the beginning of filial piety." Ancient Chinese believed that "hair" was given by parents, so one had no right to "dispose of" their hair. Hair was also considered to be as important as one's own life, so ancient people often tied their hair into a bun. Unless a person has seen through the mundane world and wants to become a monk or a nun, he or she will shave their heads to show their determination not to be attached to the mundane world. In ancient times, people did not cut their hair, which also meant remembering their ancestors. Ancient people believed that the importance of hair was almost equal to that of the head, so "shaving hair" meant "shaving the head". However, people nowadays call "shaving head" "haircut", which is just tidying up the hair. It can be seen that with the changes of the times, there is a world of difference in the concept of "haircut". |
