About the folk customs in Bazhong, the composition of the sixth grade of primary school.
"Nadam" is Mongolian, and "Mu" is a transliteration of Mongolian, which means "entertainment and games" to express the joy of harvest. It is a traditional form of sports activities loved by Mongolian people. It begins on the fourth day of June every year. Nadam has a long history. According to the inscription on the stone wall of Genghis Khan, Nadam originated in the early days of the establishment of the Mongolian khanate. As early as A.D. 1206, when Genghis Khan was elected as the Great Khan of Mongolia, he held the "Great Hural Platform" from July to August every year to gather tribal leaders to show solidarity and friendship and celebrate the bumper harvest. At first, only archery, horse racing or wrestling were held. In the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, archery and wrestling became a fixed form. Later, the Mongols also called these three sports Nadam.
Wrestling is a favorite sport of Mongolians and an essential event in Nadam. In Mongolian, wrestling is called "Bok Beldeou" and wrestlers are called "Bok Qing". Wrestlers should wear wrestling clothes "Zhao Dege". The most striking thing is that the center of the wrestler's pickup shoulder is decorated with exquisite patterns, such as dragon, bird, flower and monster, which gives people a sense of simplicity and solemnity.
Archery is one of the earliest activities in Nadam. More than 800 years ago, Mongolians were divided into many different tribes, and their economic life could be roughly divided into nomadic economy and hunting economy. After Genghis Khan unified Mongolia, although the hunting economic tribes gradually turned to nomadic economy, the bow-drawing and archery skills accumulated in the hunting process for many years were preserved to prevent foreign enemies from invading and wild animals from attacking the herds. The rule of archery competition is nine arrows in three rounds, and the top three are determined by the number of arrows in the target.
Nadam convention usually lasts seven to nine days, and Mongolian men, women and children are immersed in joy.
