Abstract

The aim of this study was to find the temporal and spatial evolution situation of placenames named in Yi nationality language in Guizhou province. Distribution direction and average center indexes were used to indicate temporal and spatial evolution situation. The results showed that the spatial distribution direction could be roughly regarded as northeast-southwest direction, and its average central coordinate was located in Nayong County. The average center trajectory of these placenames first moved to southeast direction and then moved to northwest direction. These results had reference value for studying the activity range and migration of the Yi people.
