羌、姜同源说辨正

Reconsidering the Theory that the Jing and Qiang Nationalities Are of the Same Origin

该文通过对甲骨文、金文、经籍和考古发掘材料中有关羌、姜的记载加以分析整理，可知殷周羌族、周代姜姓诸族、考古“姜炎文化”、汉代河湟羌族，随时代改变而有不同的内涵。仅就殷周羌族、周代姜姓诸族、考“姜炎文化”三者关系言之，羌、姜同源之说非也。

After analyzing the records about the Jiang and Qiang nationalities in the oracle bone inscrip- tions, inscriptions on ancient bronze objects, ancient books and archaeological findings, the author dis- covers the different meanings of Qiang and Jiang nationalities in different times before the Han Dynasty. The paper holds that the Qiang and Jiang nationalities are not of the same origin.
