Villages the songs were collected in
All 5 poems collected in this place name a smaller place on their archive record. The counts reflect how often collectors wrote an address down, not how much was sung. Names are shown as written on the records, so they span different eras’ commune divisions; a place may be where the song was written down or where the singer came from, and a name marked (?) was uncertain in the record itself. All these names, across every collection place, can be searched in the Place Name Index.
