Inheritance significance of Wunijing handmade cotton textile technology

Huang Daopo's cotton textile technology has changed the tradition of taking silk and hemp as the main raw materials for thousands of years, changed the economic structure in the south of the Yangtze River, gave birth to a new cotton textile industry, and changed the life customs and traditional marriage customs in the south of the Yangtze River. It can be said that Wunijing handmade cotton textile technology is one of the core contents of China textile technology.

Huang Daopo and handmade cotton textile technology is a microcosm of the development of textile technology in China. It not only embodies the crystallization of the labor wisdom of the Han and Li nationalities, but also promotes the exchanges between all ethnic groups.

However, the inheritors who have mastered hand-made cotton textile and printing and dyeing techniques are all in their seventies and eighties, and there is a serious shortage of special books and video materials to record related technologies, so traditional handicrafts are in danger of being lost; Huang Daopo's contribution to mankind has been gradually forgotten, and the temple sacrifices, ceremonies and festivals have been completely destroyed. This ancient art is in danger of being lost, so it is necessary to protect it effectively.
