贵州世居少数民族水族医药文化“源流”考辩

On the “Origins and Development”of the Medical Culture of the Shui People in Guizhou

水族是贵州十七个世居少数民族之一,文中就水族医药文化"源"与"流"作了梳理,即从饮食文化、居住方式、节日习俗、服饰、宗教信仰等不同方面来考证水族医药"源"与"流"的关系;论文还就水族医药文化中现象(如"巫醫兼任"、"巫醫同源")以及治病的有效性机制作了进一步分析。贵州水族地区虽然有着丰富的医药资源,但是在现代民族医药产业化开发过程中还存在一些困难,这都是值得我们注意的。

The Shui people are one of the 17 permanent minority ethnicities in Guizhou. This paper analyzes the relationship between the ＂origins＂ and ＂development＂ of the Shui people＇ s medical culture, specifically, diet, residence mode, festival customs, costumes, and reli- gious faith. It also discusses the special Shui medical cultural situations such as the sha- man and doctor combined identity and the shared origin of shaman and doctor as well as their effective medical mechanisms. It is found that the Shui areas are rich in medical re- sources, yet the industrialization of ethnic medicine is not easy to achieve.
