The modern-day name "Jinan" literally means "south of the Ji (Waters)" and refers to the old Ji River that once flowed to the north of the city. The Ji River disappeared in 1852, when the Yellow River changed its course northwards and took over the bed of the Ji River. During the times of the Zhou Dynasty (1122 BC to 256 BC), the city of Lixia (Chinese: 历下; pinyin: Lìxià) was the major settlement in the area. The Battle of An, which was fought in the area during the Spring and Autumn Period (in 589 BC) uses the ancient city name An (Chinese: 鞍; pinyin: ān). Marco Polo describes the city under the name "Chingli"[1]. Jinan is also called "City of Springs" (Chinese: 泉城; pinyin: Quán Chéng), because of the many artesian springs.
