Name of one of the nine ancient provinces of China in the Tribute of Yii, situated, as the ancient account says, between the Ho (Yellow River) and the Hei shui [one of the northern affluents of the Yang tsz‘ kiang, see supra, 26. Its sources are in South Kan su]. The Yung chou of the Tribute of Yii corresponds to Northern Shen si and Eastern Kan su. In the San kuo period Yung chou was a province of the kingdom of Wei and comprised Shen si north of the Wei River and Eastern Kan su. Yung chou was also a province in the Tsin and Sui dynasties. In the latter period it extended farther to the west into Kan su. Yung chou in the Wu tai period was a prefecture corresponding to present Si an fu in Shen si. 425. —Yung chou.
