History
Bửu Lang[a] (year of birth unknown) took the regnal name of Hùng Diệp Vương (雄曄王)[b] upon becoming Hùng king.[2] The series of all Hùng kings following Bửu Lang took that same regnal name of Hùng Diệp Vương to rule over Văn Lang until approximately 1913 B.C.[2]
The burial customs of this period were that the bodies lay straight. But a sick deceased was usually laid to rest curled in the fetal position.[3]
The evidence for early Vietnamese calendar system was recorded on stone tools dating back 2200–2000 BC. Parallel lines were carved on the stone tools as a counting instrument involving the lunar calendar.[4]
Sometimes around 2000 B.C., the Phùng Nguyên culture arose and lasted about 1000 years.[5] At the end of its time, it must have overlapped with the cultures of the later period.[5]
Also during this time, population from the mountainous areas moved out and began to settle in the open along the rivers to join the agricultural activities.[5] The slash-and-burn method was introduced to create fields.[5] In addition, the population started to raise their own animals.[5] Archaeologists had discovered the remains of domesticated animals.[5]
