Why did the ancients call it when they went to work"Dianmao", this saying is related to the work and rest time of the ancients.
Point the "Mao.""It's from ancient timekeeping"Mao time"。
The ancients used to divide the 24 hours of a day and a night into 12 hours, that is, every two hours was an hour.
The 12 hours were named after each of the 12 earthly branches. For example, 11 o'clock in the first half of the night to 1 o'clock in the second half of the night is called sub-time, which is often referred to as midnight sub-hour.
According to the order of the earthly branches, 5 a.m. to 7 a.m. is exactly the time of the day.
In ancient times, people were accustomed to going to bed early and getting up early, and the ** people at that time also had the habit of going to the morning court.
So at five or six o'clock in the morning, the first thing they had to do when they came to the yamen was to count the number of people, which is now the roll call.
At that time, it was the time of Mao, so people naturally called the roll call "Dianmao".
From this, a series of words were derived, such as the name of the official waiting for the roll call "Ying Mao.""The roll call is called "Mao Book", and if you need to sign in, it is called "Draw Mao" and so on. Slowly, all walks of life have learned from the "Dianmao"."experience, prescribed morning roll call.
We are now going to work not by name, but by brushing our faces, which the ancients may not have expected.
