西南夷相关资料极为匮乏,地名所透露的信息尤为可贵,堪称研究该民族地区历史的“活化石”。通过对且兰、句町二地名的考察,从历史沿革、名称含义、地域范围、居民族属等四方面挖掘其所蕴含的文化内涵。 Information on the Southwest is extremely scarce, the information disclosed by the place name is particularly valuable, called the “living fossil” of the history of the ethnic region. Through the investigation of the place names of Erlan and Senmachi, the cultural connotations contained in the four aspects of the history, the meaning of the name, the geographical scope and the ethnic group are excavated.
