Tabloid template of Yao traditional culture

The gentle and resolute Yao people have created rich and colorful Yao culture. They not only inherited and carried forward this traditional custom, but also infected everyone around them with that unrestrained and warm atmosphere. Next, I will show you the inheritance of Yao traditional culture, Yao Ganba Festival culture.

Ganba Festival is a traditional festival of Yao nationality, which is held on the third day of the third lunar month. In the second half of the second month of the lunar calendar, Yao people in each village are busy, discussing the contents of festival activities, and then each village prepares separately. The village hunting in the mountains is responsible for repairing guns, flushing gunpowder, marking yards and making crossbows. Fishing nets, harpoons and other utensils are also placed in villages that fish in rivers.

On the day of the festival, at dawn, the adult men who agreed to go hunting in the village went hunting in the mountains with muskets and crossbows and rakes and other food, while the old people and women slaughtered chickens and ducks at home, dyed all kinds of glutinous rice, raked rakes and prepared the table. The wild animals that men go up the mountain are brought back for distribution, and everyone has a share. If you can't get wild animals, people will laugh at you.

In particular, the "gatekeeper" (the young man) should be despised by the "gatekeeper" (the girl), so the "gatekeeper" who goes hunting in the mountains always takes pains and tries their best to catch wild animals. Li Ning Village, which originally discussed fishing in the river, also set off before dawn, with men, women and children in droves. The caught fish and shrimp are also distributed by every household, and * * * enjoys the joy of the festival.

In the evening, people go back to the village, visit each other, congratulate each other, take out sweet rice wine, eat fragrant glutinous rice, and have a full meal with the prey or fish of the day, but more or less they will leave some, hang them by the fire, bake them into dried game and entertain the closest people. In the evening, young men and women gathered around the fire and sang touching songs.

If you want to say the origin of March 3, you can blame it on Fu. Fuxi and his sister, Nu Wa, unearthed human beings to reproduce. In eastern Henan, Fuxi is honored as the "ancestor", and the ancient temple of Taihaoling was built in Huaiyang (the capital of Fuxi). From February 2nd to March 3rd of the lunar calendar, the Temple Fair of Taihaoling was held. Good men and women all gathered in the mausoleum area to worship their ancestors.

In ancient times, the third day of March was regarded as "thinking", and the Han Dynasty was designated as a festival. "Today is the third day of the month, and the officials and the people are all on the east running water (clean). It is called "removing dirt (disease)" (Book of Rites). Later, water banquets and outings were added. In the evening, every household sets off firecrackers and blows ghosts in every room of the house. It is said that ghosts haunt everywhere on this day. After Wei and Jin Dynasties, Shangsi Festival was changed to March 3, which was followed by later generations, thus becoming a festival for Han people to drink by the water and have a spring outing in the suburbs.
