  • The Yangyue (Chinese: 揚越; pinyin: yángyuè) were a tribe of the Yue people, one of the ancient peoples of South China. In Chinese historical books, the earliest description about the Yangyue appeared during the Warring States period. The commonly accepted hypothesis is that they were a tribe of the ancient Yue people who originally lived in the Yang Province (Yang Zhou), one of the ancient Nine Provinces (Jiu Zhou); because of this, the tribe was called “Yangyue”, meaning the Yue people from the Yang Province. During the Warring States period, after the Yue Kingdom was destroyed, the Yangyue and the Baiyue grew in influence. Depending on the period, the term may not necessarily refer to the same people group. The modern-day Zhejiang province is the core area of the ancient Yang Province, which also included the provinces of Fujian and Guangdong, the south of Jiangsu and Anhui, and the east of Jiangxi. Gradually, the Yue people spread to adjacent regions, into modern-day Jiangxi, the east and north of Hunan and the east of Hubei. The Yue people who settled there came to be known as the Yangyue. The regions inhabited by the Yangyue were dominated by mountains, hills, basins and river valleys. They were spread across the Yangtze River basin, including the Han, Xiang, Zi, Yuan, Li and Gan river valleys and the Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake basins. The Yangyue's lifestyle was based on agriculture, with rice being the most common crop. (en)
  • 扬越，又稱揚粵，是先秦百越部族的一个分支，活動區域在長江中下游，因居住在古代扬州而得名。 扬越之名最早出现于战国时期，有的解释为越人所居住之地属九州之一的扬州（非今日之扬州市），故称“扬越”，战国时期的越国亡后，扬越、百越之称渐多，各个时期称呼对样不一样，有时和越、越人、百越混合使用。扬越最初的分布区域，北至淮河，东南至海，西与以都阳湖为界，包括今江苏、安徽南部、江西东部和浙江、福建及广东等省，包括今湖南、湖北等地。其后多对居于湖南、湖北、江西之越人称为扬越。扬越人居住地以山地、丘陵、盆地、河谷为主，分布于长江流域，包括汉水、湘江、资水、沅水、澧水、赣江及洞庭湖、鄱阳湖等地域；以农业为主，过定居生活，主要依靠种植水稻。 (zh)
