Zhurong
Zhurong (), also known as Chongli (), is an important personage in Chinese mythology and Chinese folk religion. According to the ''Huainanzi'' and the philosophical texts of Mozi and his followers, Zhurong is a god of fire and of the south. The ''Shanhaijing'' gives alternative genealogies for Zhurong, including descent from both the Yan Emperor and Yellow Emperor.〔Yang 2005:248〕 Some sources associate Zhurong with some of the principle early and ancient myths of China, such as those of Nuwa, Gong Gong and the Great Flood (Nuwa patching the sky).〔Yang 2005:124〕 Chinese mythology has in the past been believed to be, at least in part, a factual recording of history. Thus, in the study of historical Chinese culture, many of the stories that have been told regarding characters and events which have been written or told of the distant past have a double tradition: one which tradition which presents a more historicised and one which presents a more mythological version.〔Yang 2005: 12-13〕 This is also true in the case of Zhurong. In Sima Qian's ''Records of the Grand Historian'' (''Shi Ji''), Zhurong is portrayed as a historical person, who held the governmental office of Minister of Fire.〔Hawkes 2011 (): 81〕
Zhurong was said to be the son of Gaoyang (also known as Zhuanxu), a sky god.〔Hawkes 2011 (): 21 and 79〕 (Again, the more historicised versions of the mythology portray Zhuanxu as a historical person; in this case an "Emperor of China"). Gaoyang also had a son, Gun, who fathered Yu the Great. The imperial clan of the Qin Dynasty also claimed descent through Gaoyang (though not Zhurong). Zhurong was also claimed to be an ancestor to the eight lineages of the royal families of the Chu state.
