历山：大舜文化的圣山

济南古城南郊的千佛山,古称历山,因为远古圣王大舜曾耕稼于山下,所以又名舜山或舜耕山。历山海拔仅有285米,但是对于整个济南古城来说,却是观瞻所归的地标性山体。所以,在古代,历山脚下的舜井又名历井;以历井为源头的河流称历水（今曲水亭街所在的泉溪正是古历水的孑余）;历水北流而西折,注入一个叫做历水陂（故址在今大明湖西南门以南）的湖泊;历水曲隈之地,古称历汭,济南古城的前身历下城,或称历城,就是从这里发展起来的。

MOUNT LI: A SACRED MOUNTAIN OF THE SHUN CULTURE

Before getting its present name during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, The Thousand-BuddhaMountain has been called Mount Li, and Shungeng Mountain （the hill which Emperor Shun ploughed on）. Emperor Shun, a legendary leader in the early stage of Chinese civilization, shared his virtue with the people when he was farming on the Mount Li. Based on the historical materials, it is clear that Shun Culture is inextricably linked with the Thousand-Buddha Mountain.
