Abstract: Yuhuangmiao culture is an important archaeological culture distributed in the mountainous area of northern Hebei from the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period to the middle of the Warring States Period,which belongs to the main representative of the late northern bronze culture discovered so far in the eastern section of the Great Wall in northern China.The formation of the name of Yuhuangmiao culture is a history of discovery and research of this culture,and it has gone through many twists and turns due to being mixed with nationality cognition.The issue of ethnicity has always been a hot issue of this culture.Combined with the understanding of the location of time and space and the source of culture,this culture is located in the western region adjacent to the Sanggan River Valley.It is the remains of the Dairong tribe.Dairong is a new tribe formed by taking the Di people as the main body and integrating many people from different sources.The composition of the population and its change process should be very complex.The name of Dongqu nationality located in the hinterland of Yanshan is still difficult to be identified for a time.It is likely that this is the historical process of Dairong and Shanrong coexisting and Dairong gradually replacing Shanrong.

Key words: Yuhuangmiao culture, cultural naming, ethnicity, Dairong
