Ling Lun Ling Lun () is the legendary founder of music in ancient China.〔Lihui Yang and Deming An, with Jessica Anderson Turner, ''Handbook of Chinese Mythology''. Santa Barbara, California: ABC CLIO, 2005, p. 73 and pp. 169-170〕 In Chinese mythology, as described in the Lüshi Chunqiu (in (中国語:吕氏春秋)), he was said to have created bamboo flutes which made the sounds of many birds, including the mythical phoenix.〔(Baidu Encyclopedia: Ling Lun ) (in Chinese)〕 "In this way, he invented the five notes of the ancient Chinese five-tone scale (gong, shang, jiao, ahi', and yu) which is equivalent to 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 in numbered musical notation (do, re, mi, so, and la in western solfeggio) and the eight sounds made by eight musical instruments.〔Lihui Yang and Deming An, with Jessica Anderson Turner, ''Handbook of Chinese Mythology''. Santa Barbara, California: ABC CLIO, 2005, p. 73.〕 The "Yellow Emperor" (Huangdi) is said to have ordered the casting of bells in tune with those flutes. An alternative text, the ''Lushi Chunqiu (English: Annals of Master Lu)'', from the third century BC credits another culture hero, Kui, (who is often confused with a one-legged mythical monster bearing the same name, Kui) with the invention of music. In one version of the story, Kui makes a drum by stretching an animal skin over an earthen jar that defeats another monster.〔Lihui Yang and Deming An, with Jessica Anderson Turner, ''Handbook of Chinese Mythology''. Santa Barbara, California: ABC CLIO, 2005, p. 159.〕〔In another version, Huangdi fashions a drum from the skin of a ''kui'' monster. For a discussion of the ''hui/kui'' confusion, see Richard von Glahn, ''The Sinister Way: The Divine and the Demonic in Chinese Religious Culture''. Berkeley: University of California Press, 2004, pp. 90 ff.〕 In the computer games ''Civilization IV'' and ''Civilization V'', Ling Lun appears as a great artist. ==References== 〔
