There is a village in Nanyang, Henan. Why in Shiyan, Hubei?

The reason why this village in Nanyang, Henan Province is located in Shiyan, Hubei Province is mainly because this village is a piece? Enclave? . This special village is called Shicaogou Village, which belongs to Jingziguan Town, Xichuan County, 89 kilometers away. The village is located in Bailang Town, Shiyan City, Hubei Province. This is an enclave in Henan Province. Enclave? This place involves other provinces. Even if the enclave is small, it is very complicated to transfer back.

Shicaogou village covers an area of about 0.8 square kilometers, with more than 300 mu of cultivated land and a population of less than 300. It is located in Hubei province, surrounded by villages in Hubei province, but its license plate starts with Yu, and even the area code of the landline is Nanyang. So in order to save money, some villagers used to have two telephones at home, one for Hubei and the other for Henan. Later, there was no roaming fee, so it was no longer like this.

The road in this village was also built in Hubei Province, and even the married daughter-in-law was mostly from Hubei. As for why this village became an enclave, there is no relevant record. However, there are also some rumors among the people. The first view is that this is? Dowry theory? . Shicaogou Village is because Hubei people married their daughters to Henan and gave the land to Henan as a dowry. But this reason is always unconvincing, because this land is surrounded by mountains on three sides in the west, south and north, and there are ravines in the north. In the ancient environment, this place is not a good land.

What is the second point of view? Migration theory? , village? Jia? And then what? Wang? The two main ancestors moved from Hongtong County, Shanxi Province to Neixiang, Henan Province, and then to Shicaogou Village. This incident may have happened during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, because it was under the jurisdiction of Jingziguan Town at that time, so it has continued to this day. I personally believe this view, because? Migration? This situation was very common in ancient times. But legends are just legends after all. As long as people live happily, it doesn't matter where they belong.
