伏羲:多民族共享共有的文化符号

Fuxi:The Cultural Symbols Shared by Different Minzu Groups

传世和出土的文献记载、多民族流传的神话故事、分布各地的文化遗存及各民族的祭拜传统,使伏羲成为多民族共享共有的文化符号。多民族的共同祖先和华夏文明的始祖是伏羲成为多民族共享共有文化符号的基础,与伏羲具有很强关联性的多民族神话故事是共享共有文化符号形成的纽带,分布多地的文化遗迹是对共享共有文化符号的凸显,多民族共同祭拜是对共享共有文化符号的巩固。伏羲之所以会成为多民族共享共有的文化符号,既与伏羲至高无上的神圣地位有关,又与人类由野蛮走向文明、由低级文明走向高级文明这一各民族社会发展总趋势有关,也与中央和地方政府及民众对伏羲祭拜有关,还与伏羲文化极强的传播力和没有负面影响的完美伏羲形象有关,更与伏羲造福各族人民、各民族都受惠于其有关。

The literature records passed down and unearthed,the mythological stories passed down by different Minzu groups,the cultural relics distributed in various regions,and the worship traditions have made Fuxi a shared cultural symbol.The common ancestor of Chinese civilization is the foundation for Fuxi to become a shared cultural symbol.The multi-ethnic mythological stories with strong correlation with Fuxi are the bond formed by the shared cultural symbols.The cultural relics distributed in multiple places highlight the shared cultural symbols,and the joint worship of multiple eth-nic groups consolidates the shared cultural symbols.The reason why Fuxi became a cultural symbol shared by different Minzu groups is not only related to Fuxi’s supreme sacred status,but also to the overall trend of human social development from barbarism to civilization,from low-level civilization to high-level civilization.It is also related to the worship of Fuxi by the central and local governments and the public,the strong dissemination of Fuxi culture,and the perfect image of Fuxi.
