The Canh line (Vietnamese: chi Canh; chữ Hán: 支庚; chi can also be translated to as branch) was the fifteenth dynasty of Hùng kings of the Hồng Bàng period of Văn Lang (now Viet Nam). Starting 754 BC, the line refers to the rule of Cảnh Chiêu Lang and his successors. It is best known as the period when the Lạc Việt made their appearance in Văn Lang and whose influence was an important one on Vietnamese history.
