云南瑶族聚落背景探析

A Study of the Formation of Yao Compact Communities in Yunnan

由于各种因素之间的相互作用和影响 ,云南瑶族聚落呈现出以山居和血缘聚落为主的较分散的小规模聚居等特征。在其聚落背景中 ,对聚落形成及其主要特征起主导作用的是政治经济和文化因素而非自然环境因素。

Because of the interruption and influence by various factors, the living style of the Yaos in Yunnan manifests itself in relatively scattered and small consanguineous compact communities mainly in the mountains. The political, economic and cultural factors rather than the natural surroundings have played a dominant role in the formation of these communities and in the construction of their main traits.
