Supposedly Disproven Etymology Appears on the Page

edit

"Another common theory is that the name means "south of Yun Range" (云岭之南) However, this has been disproven because the name "Yunling Mountains" first appeared in Tang dynasty (618-907) literature, but the name "Yunnan" first appeared during the Han dynasty (202 BC–220 AD)."
