Introduction:
Yi nationality is the sixth largest minority in China, and its national language is Yi language, which belongs to the Yi branch of Tibeto-Burman language family of Sino-Tibetan language family. There are six dialects in North, East, South, Southeast, West and China, including five sub-dialects and twenty-five dialects.
Yi people are mainly distributed between the plateaus and coastal hills in Yunnan, Sichuan, Guizhou and Guangxi provinces, and mainly gather in Chuxiong, Honghe, Liangshan, Bijie, Liupanshui and Anshun. Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture is the largest Yi inhabited area in China.
History:
There are different views on the origin of the Yi people, mainly including the northern theory, the southern theory, the oriental theory and the Yunnan indigenous theory. The academic consensus is from the north. According to the historical records of Han and Yi languages, the ancestors of Yi people had close relations with the ancient Qiang people distributed in the west, and the Yi people mainly originated from the ancient Qiang people.
From the 2nd century BC to the beginning of A.D., the activities of Yi ancestors concentrated in Dianchi Lake and Du Qiong (now southeast of Xichang, Sichuan). These areas are inhabited by tribes engaged in agriculture or nomadism, such as Du Qiong, Kunming, Laojin, Mimo and Yunnan. According to the historical legend of the Yi people, their ancestors lived in the "Qionglu Road" in ancient times, and then they went south to the banks of "Eno" and "Quyi" (namely Jinsha River and Anning River basins).
After the 3rd century A.D., the ancestors of Yi people gradually expanded from Anning Valley, Jinsha River, Dianchi Lake and Ailao Mountain in Yunnan to northeast Yunnan, south Yunnan, northwest Guizhou and northwest Guangxi. Since the ancestors of the Yi people settled in the southwest, they have been merging with other ethnic groups. For example, many descendants of Pu people in ancient south have become Yi people today.
