Confucius
(551-479 BC) was a sage,
scholar, and philosopher. Confucius
passed on his passion for education by
emphasizing the importance of
education. A slew of accolades,
including a posthumous award of
“Supreme Teacher” in 1AD, an imperial
decree deeming him a "Grand Master"
in 581AD, and the bestowing of the title
“Prince of Culture” in 739AD led to
Confucius’ continued popularity.

The Confucian ceremony has been traced to the Zhou
Dynasty (1046BC-221BC). After Confucius’ death,
ceremonies to honor him were held by Confucius'
family members. Emperor Lu Aigong (
魯哀公
)
converted Confucius’ home in Qufu (
曲阜
),
in
Shandong Province, to a temple so Confucius'
descendants could honor him. It wasn't until after
Han Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang (
高祖
)
paid his respects
to Confucius that all emperors began to worship
Confucius. Confucian Ceremonies have been held
regularly since the Han dynasty (206BC-220AD).

an institute for teaching the
emperor how to conduct the Confucius ceremony.
