社会记忆与族群认同问题是当下人类学、民族学和社会学等学科研究中的一个重要的学术话题。文章主要运用社会记忆和族群认同的有关理论,结合相关的文献与田野调查资料,从英雄祖先记忆、家族祖先迁徙记忆与苦难记忆等方面对(亻革)家人的族群认同进行了诠释。(亻革)家人的社会记忆对其族群认同有着深刻的影响,社会记忆体系不仅是强化族群自我认同的重要力量,同时也是区分、标识族群之间和表达其族群认同的特殊"历史叙事"方式和媒介。

Social memory and ethnic Identification is an important academic topic in the study of contemporary anthropology, ethnology, sociology etc. This paper, referring to the theory of social memory and ethnic Identification and the relevant literature and data of field work, analyzes Gejia＇s ethnic Identification from the following aspects： memory of heroic ancestor, memory of ancestor＇s immigration and past suffering of Gejia people.
