在南方一些民族的洪水神话里,从葫芦里或其他植物果实里走出的是伏羲兄妹,或称呼相近的其他兄妹,他俩成亲繁衍了各民族的祖先。相传,伏羲生于成纪(今甘肃天水),但主要活动地区似乎在豫东南鲁南皖北淮河流域。纵观伏羲形象,似乎更多地与天象气候、与阳有关。他出生于混沌状态的雷霆闪电之中,或因雷而感生;他标志性的创造是“仰则观象于天,俯则观法于地”而发明的八卦;尤其是,他为日气、阳气,更具天、阳的特性。随着中国古代哲学阴阳匹配观念、对称观念的逐渐深化,伏羲作为天的象征、阳的象征的角色品性越来越突出,与此相对应的地的象征、阴的象征的角色也越来越呼之欲出。随着中国传统文化对偶观念逐渐深化,与天地交合、阴阳交合化生万物说相对应,相传分制婚姻嫁娶之礼的人间两位神伏羲、女娲的性别角色也逐渐突出,终于组合成一对配偶神。根据相关材料,苗蛮、百越系统历史上也曾与东夷系统在族源上有所交叉,太昊伏羲氏文化在这些系统中传承也属正常。在南方民族人类起源神话里,洪水漫延往往是人类生存发展的最后一次考验,经过洪水的考验,或者说在洪水考验后保留下来的人种,才最终能够繁衍下来,故从某种角度来看,洪水之后人类的再生具有更重大的意义。或许因此,伏羲及其配偶繁衍后代的神话叙事,在南方融化在了洪水神话之中。 In the flood mythology of some ethnic groups in the south, the brothers and sisters from the gourd or other plant fruits walked out of the same neighborhood or other siblings, and they both became pro-ancestors of various ethnic groups. According to legend, Fu Xi was born in Ji Cheng (now Gansu Tianshui), but the main areas of activity seem to be in Southeast Henan, Henan, Anhui and Anhui Huaihe River. Throughout the image of Fu Xi, it seems more with the weather climate, and Yang related. He was born in the state of thunder and lightning lightning, or because of Ray and his life; his iconic creation is “ghosts and gods in the sky, overlooking the concept of law ” gossip; especially, he For the weather, yang, more days, Yang characteristics. With the ancient Chinese philosophy Yin and Yang match the concept of symmetrical concept of deepening, Fu Xi as a symbol of heaven, Yang symbol of character character more and more prominent, and corresponding to the symbol of the overcast character also more and more The more ready to come. With the gradual deepening of the concept of duality in Chinese traditional culture, intercrossing with heaven and earth, the transfiguration of yin and yang corresponds to the conversion of all living things. It is said that the gender roles of the two gods Fu Xi and Nu Wa, God on spouses. According to related materials, Miao Man, Bai Yue system history has also been with the East Yi system in the ethnic origin of the cross, Taihao Fu Xi culture in these systems is also a normal heritage. In the southern myths of the origins of human beings, the flood spreading is often the last test of human existence and development. After the flood test or the race preserved after the flood test, it will finally be able to flourish. Therefore, from a certain point of view After the flood human regeneration has more significance. Perhaps, therefore, the mythological narrative of Fu Xi and his spawning offspring melted in the flood myth in the south.
