Exploring the origins of Chinese civilization, this book presents a mythological interpretation of ancient totems like the bear and the owl, questioning traditional symbols such as the lion, dragon, and phoenix. Utilizing a unique quadruple evidence method, it combines ancient literature, oral histories, and archaeological findings to provide a comprehensive understanding of China's cultural heritage. Through this lens, the author challenges conventional narratives and invites readers to reconsider the significance of these totems in Chinese identity.

Drawing on the sun, moon, dragon, phoenix, Nuwa, Yandi, Huangdi and other widely circulated cultural elements as examples, this book addresses the development and evolution of the most representative Chinese creation myths regarding nature, totems, ancestors and saints.
