摘要
甘肃的历史堪称一本历史教科书。中华民族的人文始祖伏羲、女娲和黄帝的神话传说都诞生在这片大地上。距今8000年的大地湾文化标志着中国农耕文化的初步形成;5000年前的马家窑文化孕育出目前中国历史上最早的彩陶艺术文化。2000多年前的汉武帝时期,张骞出使西域,霍去病领兵攻下咽喉要地,在此建立“河西四郡”,开通了河西走廊、丝绸之路,为中西贸易往来、文化交流提供了有利条件。
Gansu's historyis akinto a comprehensive textbook.The mythical ancestors of the Chinese people-Fuxi,Nuwa,and the Yellow Emperor-are said to have originated in this land.The Dadiwan culture from 8,000 years ago marked the early formation of Chinese agricultural culture.The Majiayao culture from 5,000 years ago produced the earliest known painted pottery in Chinese history.
