Chinese Lunnar New Year And Nian

Chinese New Year is now popularly known as the Spring Festival because it starts at the beginning of spring. Its origin is too old to be traced. All agree though that the word "nian," which in modern Chinese only means "year," was originally the name of a monster that started to prey on people the night before the beginning of a new year.
