1, from Gui surname. According to legend, Shun, one of the five emperors, was born in Ruoshui and is a descendant of Diqiu. Born in, later generations took the land as their surname and called it Yao's. It is said that Shun recommended Tao's name to Yao in April before he ascended the throne. After he succeeded to the throne, Shun married two daughters and let them live by Gui River. Some of their descendants stayed by Gui River and took Gui as their surname. After King Wu destroyed the Shang Dynasty, he found Gui Man, a descendant of Emperor Shun. Married the eldest daughter to Guiman and named him Chen. It was passed on to Zhongjing's family in 2000, and it was renamed Gui to avoid Wang Mang living in Wu. After the fifth generation, it was changed to Yao surname.
2. From the surname. According to the History of the Road, there were descendants of Shang in the Spring and Autumn Period, and later generations took the country as their surname and called it Yao.
His family name was changed to Yao.

In other words, most of China people in Yao today come from these two groups. These two Yao families continued to multiply and migrate, and before the Tang Dynasty, they had become prominent families in Zhejiang and Longzhou, Gansu. Later, a Yao family in Wu Kang, Xing Wu moved to Shaanxi and developed into a large local family in the Sui Dynasty. After the Tang Dynasty, Yao's reproduction was more extensive and spread all over the country. Among them, Yao's transplanting in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Henan, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong, Guangdong, Sichuan, Anhui, Hubei and other places is the most prosperous.
