What do you think about the fact that more than 100 people in a village in Chongqing have the last name Ha?
It’s quite normal. What should you think about this?
When a village was first formed, one family settled here, and then other people slowly followed suit, eventually forming a village.
Therefore, there must be one surname in the village that is a popular surname and has the largest population.
This is a very common phenomenon in rural areas. In a village, there are always one or two surnames that account for the largest proportion of the population, and other surnames are in the minority.
Therefore, the big surnames in rural areas are the backbone, and other small surnames are called small surnames.
This kind of relatively rare surname is most likely to get together, because there are very few people with this surname, and most of them are related.
1. As a village, most people have the same surname.
Especially in villages with relatively small populations, there may be only one surname in a village, and this surname accounts for more than 90% of the total population of the village.
Such a village was originally built as a family unit, and it is normal to have the same surname.
This family has thrived in one place for a long time, and the population has increased, eventually forming a village.
In this case, it may not be that the village came first and then the family, but that the family settled here first, and then the village slowly came into being.
It is not unusual for more than a hundred people in a village to have the same surname. After all, everyone is a family, and they are the descendants of the ancestors who have multiplied over a long period of time.
As for the surname Ha, it may be related to some experiences of our ancestors. The reasons for the emergence of this surname are quite complicated.
2. The surname Ha itself is relatively rare, and of course it is more concentrated.
The surname Ha is definitely a relatively rare surname, but thanks to Li Yong’s wife Ha Wen, people across the country have actually heard of this surname.
It is said that the earliest records of the surname Ha can be traced back to the Song Dynasty. The surname Ha is recorded among the hundreds of surnames in the Song Dynasty.
Up to now, the surname Ha still belongs to a small number of areas, and its distribution range is not particularly wide.
This surname is mainly concentrated in Hebei, Jiangsu, Hubei, Henan and Northwest China, and is a minority in the local area.
This kind of surname with a relatively small population often appears in a village and everyone in the village has the same surname.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with the surname Ha. The key is that in Chongqing dialect, the word Ha has a bad meaning, so local people with the surname Ha will feel unhappy.
There are probably relatively few people with the surname Ha in Chongqing. Maybe there is only one village like this in Chongqing, so the locals make fun of people with the surname Ha.
But if placed in other regions, the surname Ha is just a relatively rare surname.
