====China==== The Chinese call the digging stick "lei"(耒), which is said to have been invented by Shennong.<ref>《易經·繫辭下》:包犧氏沒,神農氏作,斲木為耜,揉木為耒,耒耨之利,以教天下,蓋取諸益。[https://ctext.org/book-of-changes/xi-ci-xia/zh]</ref> The most primitive lei had only one prong, while improved versions often had two prongs. "lei" is often mentioned together with "si" (耜,[[Hoe_(tool)|push hoe]]) as the most primitive agricultural tool in China.
