滇西契丹后裔民族融合原因初探

Reasons of National Assimilation of Qidan Descendant in West Yunnan

契丹族建立的辽朝灭亡后,作为统治民族的契丹族并未消失,他们散落于长城内外,大江南北和西域各地。1253年,忽必烈南征,有大量的契丹士兵加入军中,他们随军进入云南,落籍云南,主要分布于滇西地区,随着历史的变迁最终融合于各民族之中。

Qidan people did not disappear after the fall of Liao Dynasty, instead, they scattered all over China. In 1253, the Mongol general Hubilie invaded south China, and there were many Qidan soldiers in his army, and many of them stayed in Yunnan and assimilated with other ethnic groups.
