The results include, for example,the establishment and acceptance of the auspicious nomenclature“Jili and Fugui”(Good Luck and Prosperity) originating between the Han and Tang,and recorded as omens of the highest quality in the Da Tang Liudian (The Six Statutes of the Tang Dynasty - the Tang administrative code), the assembling of information on divination surviving only in Japan,the Korean Peninsula,and the Chinese cultural sphere, and identification of the following points:Jili and Fugui were originally a pair of beast-headed/beast-footed Chinese Phoenixes,they were inherited from the phoenixes in the oddities catalog Shan Hai Jing,and they were newly-created folk omens based on the auspicious phoenix types(Eastern/Faming;Southern/Jiaoming; Western/Sushuang; Northern/Youchang).
