History
In Lüshi Chunqiu, the current Boluo used to be one of the many Yue states without a king before Qin dynasty.[2] The state's name was transliterated as Script error: No such module "Lang". (Simplified: Script error: No such module "Lang"., Fuluo) in Chinese.[3] and it was located nearby Mount Luofu (Script error: No such module "Lang"./Script error: No such module "Lang".). Script error: No such module "Lang". or Script error: No such module "Lang". are the hanzi transliteration of the old Yue language's "people", while Script error: No such module "Lang". or Script error: No such module "Lang". means "cave". The current Boluo (Script error: No such module "Lang".) is derived from the same old Yue word and therefore means "people in mountain".[4]
In 214 BCE after the unification of China by Qin, Fuluo County (傅羅縣) was established. Its name was altered to Boluo under the Emperor Wu of Jin's rule in 280 CE.
