摘要
当猿人制作第一块石器时,我们可以说他创造了“文明”。人类的天性是不满足于生活的现实空间,而是力图构筑精神空间。一切神秘主义以及随后的宗教是先民不满足于生活的现实空间,试图探索精神空间的一项创造。土家族现存的巫师端公,可以追溯到距今7000年的仰韶文化。仰韶文化陶器上蒙面人纹饰表达的应当是一种神秘主义的主题。汉水上游是仰韶文化向南传播的通道,可能是巴人的发祥地。
When an ape man made the first stoneware, he has created a civilization. People's instinct encourages them not to be satisfied with toe real living space, but to try to construct a spirit space. The history of “Duangong” (witch -doctors in Tujia culture)in Tujia culture can be traced back to Yangshao culture, which was 7000 ago. The veiled man engraved on stoneware of Yangshao Culture expressed mysticism as a theme. The upper reaches of Han River, which served as a way for Yangshao Culture's southward spreading, may be Ba people's (the forefayher of Tujia people) cradle.
