The Chinese Zodiac
The rotating cycle of twelve animal signs was a folk method for naming the years in traditional China. The animal signs follow one another in an established order, and are repeated every twelve years.

The Legend of the Chinese Zodiac
According to Chinese legend, twelve animals quarreled one day as to who was to head the cycle of years. The gods were asked to decide and they held a contest: whoever was to reach the opposite bank of the river would be first, and the rest of the animals would receive their years according to their finish.

All the twelve animals gathered at the river bank and jumped in. Unknown to the ox, the rat had jumped upon his back. As the ox was about to jump ashore, the rat jumped off the oxs back, and won the race. The pig, who was very lazy, ended up last. That is why the rat is the first year of the animal cycle, the ox second, and the pig last.
