盘古文化寻踪——盘古文化考察记之二

Inquiries About Culture of Pangu——Part II of An Investigative Record About Pangu, the Creator of the Universe in Chinese Mythology

广东属岭南地区,历史上是盘古文化的重要发祥地,至今仍保存着许多盘古文化遗存。广州市花都区狮岭镇的盘古文化遗存,是历史上生活在珠江流域的原住民族———壮侗语民族先民越人所开创,与珠江中上游的盘古文化同属于一种文化体系;汉族迁入该地区后,接受和吸收了原住民族创造的盘古文化,使之得以世代传承下来。而肇庆市的盘古文化以及盘古祖殿里供奉的“狗头人身”(盘瓠)塑像,则是由历史上生活在这一地区的瑶族所开创,是瑶族信仰和崇拜的图腾。

Guangdong province lies in the south of the Five Ridges, which was the important place of origin for culture of Pangu in history, until now the place has preserved many remains about culture of Pangu. The remains in Shiling town of Huadu region of Guangzhou that were set up by the original ethnics-people of Yue , the ancestors of Zhuang & Dong ethnics, as well as those in the upper and central reaches of the Zhujiang river belonged to the same kind of culture system; After transferring to this region, people of Han nationality not only accepted and absorbed the culture of Pangu created by the local ethnic, but also passed it on from generation to generation. While the culture of Pangu in Zhaoqing city and the sculptures with a dog's head and a person's body (named Panhu) consecrated in temples of Pangu ancestors, were created by the people of Yao nationality living around this area in history, which were the totem believed and worshiped by the Yao people.
