Abstract:

Going through the relevant records in the Original Manchu Records, it can be asserted that manju, as a tribe belonged to the ethnic group jušen. which already existed in the period of Nurhaci. After the Qing dynasty was established the name Manju was usually used as the title of the state in place of Jin. By the ninth year of Tiancong (1635), Taizong Hong Taiji renamed the ethnic group. Hong Taiji substituted jušen with manju, which soon became widely known.

摘要：

梳理《满文原档》记载，可以肯定，manju（满洲）作为 jušen（女真）族所属部落之一，在清太祖时期已然存在。迨其兴起以后，“满洲”之名常被用作国号，指代金国。至天聪九年（1635）十月十三日，清太宗皇太极更改族称，以 manju（满洲）取代 jušen（女真）。满洲遂名闻遐迩。
