盘瓠是我国苗族、瑶族和畲族共同的祖先,对盘瓠的敬奉习俗在苗、瑶、畲族聚居区流传相当普遍。虽然经过历史的洗礼,但麻阳苗族自治县的盘瓠文化是我国迄今保存相对完整的原始宗教信仰文化之一,借用多门学科的相关理论对之进行挖掘、分析表明,其涵盖了宗教学、民俗学、文化学、美学等多学科的文化内涵,值得深入探讨和研究。
Panhu is the common ancestor of three nationalities of"Miao", "Yao" and "She". It was prevalent that people all hold pious worship to Pan Hu in these nationality communities in old days. Despite the baptism of history, Panhu culture, exclusive to Miao Autonomous County of Mayang, is one of the well preserved and complete primitive religious cultures of China. By applying certain theories from multiple subjects into the exploration and analysis, we find that Panhu Culture covers cultural connotation of many subjects like religion, folklores, cultures and aesthetics, which is worth discussions and researches.
