By combining the history and archaeology, the public can see that in the weeks before ZhouGong built over the Luoyang city,they called it Luo Yi,but when the capital was built,they changed Luo Yi to Chengzhou City, Wang City was a little castle of it. The Chengzhou City of the Western Zhou should be on the right bank and left bank of the Chan River, rather than in Henan county of Han Dynasty which is recorded by history books writed after Han Dynasty; the historical remains of Western Zhou in the old Han-Wei periods Luoyang city in Yanshi,it must be a city which was built in mid-week of the Western Zhou period to protect the Chengzhou City and prevent the revolt of the east.
