Xiangxiang

As a place name, 'Xiangxiang' dates back to 3 BCE in the Eastern Han dynasty when Emperor Ai of Han ({{zh|labels=no|s=刘欣}}) bestowed it upon Changsha Prince Liu Chang ({{zh|labels=no|s=刘昌}}). In the years leading up to 1952, Xiangxiang's territory included present day Shaoshan, Shuangfeng County and Loudi.{{cite book |last1=Jiang |first1=Junfeng |title=Xiangxiang Fangyan Yuyin Yanjiu |date=June 2008 |publisher=Hunan Normal University |location=Changsha |url=http://cdmd.cnki.com.cn/Article/CDMD-10542-2008132120.htm |access-date=10 December 2018 |ref=Jiang-2008}}
