In ancient times, the seniority of siblings was usually based on the order of the elders in the family. Generally speaking, the elders in the family had brothers or sisters in order of age. For example, if the elders in the family had an elder brother and an elder sister, then according to this order, the elder brother and elder sister of the family would increase in seniority, and the younger sister would be the lowest. There were also some ancient families that ranked their seniority according to the age relationship between siblings. For example, if the age difference between siblings was large, then the order of seniority would be based on the order of the elders of the older siblings. In this case, the older siblings would be called "uncle","uncle","middle", and the younger siblings would be called "brother","sister", etc. No matter how ancient families arranged their seniority, these rules had certain historical and cultural significance, reflecting the social customs and cultural traditions of that time.
