478. T'an2 譚
The surname T'an 譚 came from two sources: 1. Yüan ho hsing tsuan traces the origin of the surname T'an 譚 as follows: the surname derivd [sic] from the name of the feudal territory, the State of T'an (T'an kuo 譚國) in the Spring and Autumn (Ch'un ch'iu 春秋) Period. After the State of T'an was defeated by the State of Chü (Chü kuo ? 國), its descendants formally adopted T'an as their common surname. The family initially settled in Shan-tung 山東 and later prospered in Hu-nan 湖南 provinces. 2. The surname T'an 譚 branched from the surname T'an 談 due to a change of character for the name to avoid revenge of the family by the rivals.
