But they are not noted in Chinese history until about 500 A.D. Chinese history attributes gongs to the HSI YU nation, located between Burma and Tibet. It is believed by historians that Java, Annam, Burma, and China were the main gong producing centers.ongs and gong bowls in the Tibetan spiritual tradition have the deepest links with the cosmos and the spiritual world. It was not unusual for monks to use gongs to invoke spirits, maybe bad spirits (this is not recommended but, nonetheless, part of gong history).
The Sarcopterygii, or lobe-finned fishes, is a clade containing the coelacanths, lungfishes, tetrapods, and their fossil relatives, including the osteolepiformes and panderichthyids. They are the sister group to the ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii), together forming the bony fishes (Osteichthyes).hese lobe-fins gave rise to the paired limbs of tetrapods, with the single bones representing the humerus (forelimb) and femur (hindlimb). The once-diverse coelacanths (Actinistia) are now represented by just two species in a single genus-Latimeria chalumnae and L. menadoensis.
Holoptychius-late Devonian period. The Sarcopterygii. are generally robust osteichthyan fishes with fleshy lobe-fins. They are distinguished from the Actinopterygians or ray-finned fish by their muscular fins with articulating bones.The fins are called lobe fins because they are fleshy and like the limbs of land animals, rather than the fins of familiar ray-finned fish.The lobe fins swivel on a shoulder or hip socket (like a tetrapod limb) and most of the bones can be matched directly to the bones in the limbs of land animals.oloptychius-late Devonian period.
