清明,是中华民族祭拜先祖和追思亲人的传统时日,在春风、春草中扫墓踏青,与远方的灵魂对话,实际上是对自己的一种寄托。清明刚过,中国邮政即发行了《红山文化玉器》邮票一套(图1-3),真是恰逢其时,因为红山文化的主题就是神与巫,主要内容就是祭祀,是先民对自然与生命的认知与祈盼,是人神之间的沟通。清明过后来展读这套邮票,能从先民们的世界中获取哪些收获呢? Ching Ming is the traditional time for the Chinese nation to worship ancestors and think about their loved ones. When they visit the spring breeze and spring grass and talk to the souls of afar they are in fact a sustenance of themselves. Just after the Ching Ming passed, China Post issued a set of stamps on “Hongshan Culture and Jade Stamps” (Figure 1-3). It is just at the right time because the theme of Hongshan culture is God and witch. The main content is sacrificial rites, Cognition and pray for nature and life, is the communication between people and gods. After Ching Ming to exhibit this stamp, what can be gained from the ancestors’ world?
