GEBCO: discoverer and year of discovery (en): Discoverer: Chinese research vessel "Xiang Yang Hong 3". Year of discovery: 2018. History: Named after Huang Shigong, a famous hermit at the end of the Qin Dynasty (221 B.C.-207 B.C.) and the beginning of the Han Dynasty (202 B.C.-220 A.D.) of China. He kept his name in secret to avoid unrest. Hermits and hermit culture is a unique scenery in ancient Chinese society and culture. They maintain independent personality, pursue freedom of thoughts, and never compromise to power. They possess extraordinary talents and knowledge, but unwilling to enter officialdom from the bottom of their hearts. Bill Porter, from the United States, has written "Road to Heaven: Encounters with Chinese Hermits", in which he appraised that Chinese hermits have nurtured the roots of spiritual life and are the most respected people in the world's oldest society. |
