The Geographical Context of the Leizu Legend

forumPage talk:The Geographical Context of the Leizu Legend
To all talks
This timeline explores the geographical locations associated with Leizu, particularly Xiling, and their significance in the development and spread of the silk industry.
Xiling as a Center of Early Sericulture
c. 27th Century BCE (Estimated)
Xiling, Leizu's traditional birthplace, is believed to have been a region where early forms of sericulture were practiced. The fertile lands and favorable climate may have contributed to the cultivation of silkworms.
Expansion of Silk Production Beyond Xiling
Spread of Sericulture Across China
The techniques for silk production, attributed to Leizu, gradually spread from Xiling to other regions of China. Areas with suitable climates and mulberry tree cultivation became major centers for silk production.
