滇文化与北方地区文化及族群关系研究

On the Relations of Yunnan Culture and the Northern Area Culture and the Ethnic Groups

滇文化是战国至西汉时期位于云贵高原滇池区域的一支风格独特的考古学文化,以数量众多、特征鲜明的青铜器、金器、玉石器等闻名于世,是中国青铜文化的一朵奇葩。从文化特征来看,既有源自云贵高原新石器时代文化的特征,也有大量来自周边地区如中原、巴蜀、岭南等文化的影响,还有来自更为遥远的欧亚草原、南亚甚至西亚地区的因素,因此滇文化是杂糅了大量其他地区文化因素的一支复合型文化。其中,北方地区的文化因素占据了较为重要的地位,使其显得与周边一些典型农业民族的青铜文化差异较大,呈现出独特的地方特色。

Yunnan culture, which was famous for its numerous and distinctive bronze, gold and jade wares, was a kind of unique archaeological culture which was located in the area of Dianchi Lake (滇池)in the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau during the period from the Warring States to the Western Han Dynasty. Yunnan culture stemmed from the Neolithic culture and impacted by the cultures of its surrounding areas such as the central plains, Bashu and Lingnan, and remote areas such as the Eurasia Steppe, the South Asia and the West Asia. Thus Yunnan culture was compound, and the culture of the northern area occupied an important position, which made Yunnan culture localized and different from the bronze culture of surrounding ethnic groups characterized with typical agriculture.
