How did the word "East" come from?

In ancient China, there was a myth called "Sunrise Fusang", which was a legendary tree. In the east, the sun lives on the hibiscus tree. Every morning, the sun blows the branches of the hibiscus tree and rises to a very high place, shining on the earth. The hibiscus tree is the direct embodiment of China's ancient world view. Some scholars believe that the word "East" is also based on this legend.

"Shuo Wen Jie Zi" said: "East, move also. From the sun in the Woods. " The shape of the word "East" in Oracle Bone Inscriptions is "The sun is not at the top of the tree", indicating the direction of the sun rising and the east.
