Spatial distribution characteristics of toponymic cultural landscape in Hehuang Valley of Qinghai Province

地名是群体共有的精神记忆,承载着丰富的文化内涵,对中华优秀传统文脉的延续发展有着重要的意义。本文采用分类统计法、核密度分析法和标准差椭圆分析河湟谷地地名文化景观的空间分布特征,结果显示:(1)河湟谷地地名可以分为自然景观类、人文景观类和其他类3个大类;(2)河湟谷地地名呈现以西宁市为中心,沿湟水、黄河和大通河等水系向周围辐散降低的方向性趋势;(3)自然景观类地名充分体现了河湟谷地先民们依山傍水、趋利避害的自然选择,折射出粗犷、朴直的自然环境;(4)人文景观类地名反映了河湟谷地多民族融合发展及地处边地要塞的特征。本文可为河湟谷地的多民族融合发展、历史人口迁移和文化传承等研究提供地名文化依据。
