Bao: a long history of righteousness
Print Edition
THERE are an estimated 670,000 people surnamed Bao, accounting for 0.054 percent of the total population in China. Bao ranks the 179th most common Chinese family name.
The Bao families mainly dwelled in Shandong Province in the early Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC) and moved to Anhui, Zhejiang, Jiangxi and Jiangsu provinces in the Song Dynasty (AD 960-1279). The number of Baos in Zhejiang today constitutes 15 percent of the total population of Bao. The widely known idiom “Guan Bao Zhi Jiao” (绠￠矋涔嬩氦) depicts the sincere friendship between two politicians in the state of Qi — Bao Shuya (椴嶅彅鐗) and Guan Zhong (绠′徊).
