广州三个村落的天后宫和信仰空间

Tianhou Temple and Belief Space of Three Villages in Guangzhou

考察调查广州南部小洲村、西塱村、胜洲村三个村落的天后宫,比较其信仰空间关系,进而总结出三种类型,即东部靠海村落,保留疍民文化较多,天后宫就处于中心地位;西部内陆村落以儒家文化为主,天后宫则附属于祠堂;而中间的村落,疍民文化逐渐被儒家文化取代,天后宫的地位遂逐渐衰退。

This paper compares Tianhou Temples and belief Space in Xiaozhou village,Xilang village and Shengzhou village in south Guangzhou,and summarizes three types,which is,firstly,the culture of Dan people was saved more in the east village near sea,so Tianhou Temple was located in central position;secondly,the Confucian culture was dominant culture in the west inland village,so Tianhou Temple was attached to ancestral temple;lastly,The Dan people culture was gradually replaced by Confucian culture in the middle village,so the position of Tianhou Temple gradually declined.
