植物栽培:壮泰族群同源与分化的佐证

Plant Cultivation: Supporting Evidence for the Group Identity and Differentiation of Zhuang and Thai

植物的同名是共同族群认知某种植物的结果,是辨别民族起源是否同源的一个参考因素。壮泰族群对蕹菜、白菜、芋头等等本地植物的同样命名,是他们为"同根生民族"的又一证据。他们对烟草、玉米、红薯等外来植物的异样命名,说明他们由同源而分化了。泰族、佬族对白菜与芥菜的不区分,说明他们在公元6世纪就已经离开了中国的岭南地区。

The same name of plants is the results of common knowledge for a plant,is a reference factor to identify whether the national origin is homologue.The same name of Chinese cabbage,taro,and so on in Zhuang and Thai ethnic group is another evidence to identify their＂the same root nation＂.Their different names of tobacco,corn,sweet potato and other exotic plants shows their differentiation of homology.The fact that Thai and Lao do not distinguish between mustard and cabbage indicates that they had left China＇s Lingnan region in the sixth century AD.
