Lạc bird (Vietnamese: chim Lạc, Lạc điểu, Chinese: 雒鳥)[1] is a mythical creature in Vietnamese culture and a national bird of Vietnam. [2][3][4]

Appearance

The Lạc bird is depicted with outstretched wings and a long beak. This image symbolizes the aspiration to reach the dream of conquering challenges regardless of challenges of the Vietnamese people.[5]

Terminology

The meaning of the word Lạc itself is debatable. A theory suggests that it might come from the term "lạc điền", meaning waterfield, and so Lạc bird would mean waterfield bird.[6] The word is also translated as "lost" in modern Vietnamese language, which could be a metaphor to the Vietnamese history.[7]

During the Hồng Bàng dynasty, the word lạc was used as part of different terms such as Lạc Việt (Luoyue), Lạc Vương (King of the Lạc), Lạc hầu (Marquis of the Lạc), Lạc tướng (General of the Lạc), and Lạc dân (Lạc people).[8]

Origin and species identification

Images of Lạc bird appears on the surfaces of the Đông Sơn drums, one of the objects that were made thousands of years ago, during the era of Văn Lang-Âu Lạc. Despite its aged existence, no one really sure what species the Lạc bird actually is. Based on its appearance, Lạc bird could be another version of the Chinese Fenghuang, or a sketchy drawing of the stork, egret, crane, pelican, teal, or great hornbill.[9][10][11]
