History

The area belonged to the Template:Interlanguage link, also known as the state of Ying (Template:Lang-zh), during the Shang dynasty.[1] The Cheng state, which included northern portions of present-day Weicheng District, was settled by the descendants of Template:Interlanguage link sometime between 16th and 14th centuries BCE.[1] Present-day Template:Interlanguage link was the site of a fief of the Cheng state.[1]

During the Zhou dynasty, King Wen oversaw the expansion of the dynasty to the west of the Template:Interlanguage link, into present-day Xianyang.[1] Him and King Wu were buried in a complex known as the Template:Interlanguage link, located in present-day Template:Interlanguage link.[2] The complex contains two ancestral halls dedicated to the kings, as well as over 40 steles, which were erected in their honor during the Song dynasty.[2]
