There are many kinds of arguments about the origin of the Spring Festival, several of which are more representative. For example, the Spring Festival originated from the festival, the Spring Festival originated from the ritual of witchcraft, and the Spring Festival originated from the ghost festival. However, the generally accepted saying is that the Spring Festival is from the Spring Festival. On a day more than 2,000 BC, he was the son of Heaven and led his subordinates to worship heaven and earth. Since then, people have regarded this day as the beginning of the year. It is said that this is the origin of the Lunar New Year, later called the Spring Festival. ![](https://img.sogoucdn.com/v2/thumb/?appid=200698&url=https%3A%2F%2Fpic.wenwen.soso.com%2Fpqpic%2Fwenwenpic%2F0%2F20220130090115-482540072_png_450_240_111145%2F0)
There is another saying:"Year" is a fierce beast of Han folk legends. Its head is long and pointed, and its ferocity is abnormal. The beast lives on the bottom of the sea for many years. Every New Year's Eve, it climbs up to swallow livestock and hurts people. Therefore, every New Year's Eve, the people in the village of the village helped the elderly and children and fled to the mountains to escape the damage of the "year". On the New Year's Eve of another year, the villagers were busy packing up and preparing to flee to the mountains as usual. At this time, a white-haired old man came to the head of the village. The white-haired old man said to an old woman that if he could only let him live in her house for one night, he would be able to drive the "year" beast away. I saw the white-haired old man wearing a red coat on the house door. Set firecrackers outside the house and beat gongs and drums. The beast fled. Therefore, every year during the New Year, firecrackers, red clothes, red couplets, and drums.
