《北史·本记·卷一》
黄帝的后裔名叫始均的，曾经当过尧帝的官，他把旱魔女魃驱逐到弱水去，北方的人靠他的功绩而得益，所以舜帝便让他当了田祖。
其裔始均，仕尧时，逐女魃于弱水，北人赖其勋，舜命为田祖。
The descendants of Yellow Emperor named Shi Jun, who once served as the official of Emperor Yao, drove the witch of drought to Ruo Shui, the people in the north benefited from his achievement, so Emperor Shun made him the ancestor of farmland.
