China Native Origin Theory 19: The "red octagonal star" on Gaomiao Phoenix is a symbol of "Hua"

China Native Origin Theory 19: The "red octagonal star" on Gaomiao Phoenix is a symbol of "Hua"

Text | Huang Yinbing

First, the division of ancient nationalities in China.

? (1) "Huaha", "Hu Hu" and "An An"

At or before the end of the last ice age (6.5438+0.3 million years ago), the early modern population in southern China was divided into two parts. The ethnic group living in the southwest Pan-Yunnan-Guizhou area (mainly in Yunnan, Guizhou and Wuling Mountain areas) is the Hua (ha) ethnic group (I also call this ethnic group with Hani sound), and the ethnic group living in Hunan to the coastal areas is Hu (I also call this ethnic group Huni sound).

The two ethnic groups "Huaha" and "Huhu" are the main sources of modern ethnic groups and grassland Hu ethnic groups in China. The Han (Kazakh) people are from ancient China, and the Hu people are ancient Hu people. Their sexual characteristics are "Ni" (ancestor worship), so they can also be collectively called Ni people.

"Huaha" is fire. "Hu" was also a fire at first, and later it evolved into a comprehensive worship of birds and the sky. The bird of the ancient Hu people is a swan (swan or goose). The ancient Hu people finally reached the grassland and returned to Hongyan's hometown.

Together with Hua Ha and Hu, there are Huanian people in northern China, who can also be referred to as An people for short. "Huanian" people are a systematic and huge northern ethnic group with the characteristics of modern westerners, which was formed by the ancient China people in western China migrating northward 70,000 to 60,000 years ago and mixing with Homo sapiens in northern China. After the last ice age (1.3 million years ago), the South China people migrated to the Eurasian steppe and evolved into Aryans who worshipped fire in western history. There are still survivors, mainly shepherds, of the Huanian nationality in the northwest and west of China. The main body of ancient ginger, ancient Qiang or Xirong and Beidi is their descendants.

This is the sound of ancient flowers and Hu. There is a scholar who studies phonetics in Datong think tank group. The screen name is "Jing Tian Li Mei, a woman with a fragrant soul". She taught me the ancient voice of China, Hu and Huo. She believes that the ancient sound of Hua is ka, Hu is ko, and the ancient sound of fire is ka, all of which can be regarded as homophones. Later, K was lightened and evolved into H, which, according to her statement, can also support China Huhuo homology. Indeed, all roads lead to the same goal.

(B) "Flower" and "Summer Sprinkle"

? After the last Ice Age (6.5438+0.3 million years ago), under the merger, integration and expulsion of people, the ancient Hu people gradually migrated from the south and east of China to the grasslands in the north, and became the Hu ethnic group that ruled the grasslands. Most people in Gu 'an moved out of China and entered the Eurasian grassland, becoming the main ancestral home of westerners.

1, the symbol of the ancient Xia people-the fish face pattern.

I said a lot about "Xia" because I found the graphic "Xia". What is the graphic "summer"? The figure "Xia" is a "human face fish map" existing in Banpo site of Yangshao culture from 6800 to 6300 years ago. I have talked about the evolution of "The Cultural Map of Mermaid" and "Xia" in detail.

The ancient Xia people were divided into three branches: Eastern Xia (Huaxia Hasa), Xixia (Xia Rong Rong Sa) and Daxie Nisa. Daxia people moved westward 9000 years ago, and a large number of them moved westward around 7800. Therefore, the Daxia people are the main ancestors of the population in West Asia, Central Asia and the surrounding areas of the Mediterranean.

The figure below shows the figure "Summer":

2. The ancient symbol of China-Huahua (sun totem)

? I also talked a lot about what "Hua" is. I think "Hua" originated from "fire" and sublimated into "sun" in the two lakes region. As for the ancient sound of China, I think when Huawei is in fire, it is pronounced as ha, and when China sublimates into the sun, it is pronounced as Hua. The formation of Huahua is not only the fusion of worship between ancient Chinese and ancient Hu people, but also the fusion of language.

Many people think that "flowers" are "flowers", but I don't think so. "Hua" is really like a flower when making words. But this is only using Shu Hua to express "Hua", not the origin of "Hua". The origin of "Hua" is "fire book" The sublimation of China is the sun. It's just that I haven't found the "Hua" in the totem period with the sun.

3. Ancient Xia people and ancient China people are of the same origin-the source is Hua Ni (Hani) in Pan-Yunnan-Guizhou area.

At the end of the last ice age, the Gu Hua (Kazakh) people in the Pan-Yunnan-Guizhou region migrated in two branches. It has been moving northward along the eastern edge of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the western edge of the Sichuan Basin to the upper reaches of the Weihe River (with Dadiwan in Qin 'an, Gansu Province as the central area), and this branch has developed the brand of "Xia" civilization, that is, "Tween the Face Fish". According to their cultural characteristics, I call this branch "Hua Ni Xia", that is, the ancient Xia people. The pronunciation of "Xia" at this time is "Sa". One faction moved eastward to Hunan and merged with the ancient Hu people in Hunan. The change at this time is that (Ha) has evolved into (Hua), (Ha) into fire worship, and (Hua) into sun worship. The integration of Gu Hua (Kazakhstan) people and ancient Hu people also formed the worship of surnames-the worship of corpses. What is a "corpse"? In ancestor worship, a person who pretends to be an ancestor is sacrificed in a sacrificial position. This person who pretends to be an ancestor is a "corpse" and later evolved into a "yi". I also talked about this evolution. According to their worship, I call this group of people "Hua Ni-corpse (Yi)". It was a flood period from 8000 to 6000 years ago, and the dead (barbarians) in Hua Ni returned to Wuling Mountain. A part of Hua Ni Yi people set up a high temple in the south of Wuling Mountain, and a part of Hua Ni Yi people developed to the north of Wuling Mountain, which developed the culture of the north and west in the mountainous area of western Hubei and the edge of Jianghan Plain. They also divided into two development directions, one continued to enter northwest Hubei and west Henan, and this one finally developed into Shennong ethnic group. Some of them entered Jianghan Plain after the flood subsided, walked along the cultural context of the north, west, daxi and Qujialing, and finally built their capital in Chengtoushan. From 5600 to 5300 years ago, due to the cooling in the north, the Shennong nationality formed in the Central Plains returned to Jianghan, which led to the eastward movement of some Hua Ni's remains in Jianghan to Jianghuai area, and Lingjiatan culture appeared in Jianghuai area (from 5600 to 5300 years ago).

The historical title of Hua Ni's corpse (Yi) should be ancient Chinese. In ancient China, there was always a process of eastward migration. After the disintegration of ancient Xia people and ancient China in the Xia Qi period, China and Xia were always in the opposite situation. The ancients in China worshipped "corpses" and turned their dutiful sons into "foreigners".

The ancients in China were called barbarians in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the word "barbarians" in the Western Zhou Dynasty gradually became a derogatory term.

Second, the concepts of "Japanese" and "China".

The hieroglyphs and Chinese characters of 1 and "day"

In fact, the concept of "day" appeared in the period of Pengtoushan culture and Jiahu culture. Look at the picture below:

In the Pengtoushan symbol in the above picture, 7 can be regarded as the pictograph "day". And 8 is obviously "month". 5 and 6 can be regarded as solar halos, that is, solar stripes. Above, there are two phoenix heads on the pottery of Datang, with a sun pattern in front. The sun pattern in the Tang Dynasty means "sunflower", the circle in the middle represents "sunflower", and the radioactivity outside the circle represents the light emitted by sunflower. The characteristic of sunlight is radioactivity, with the sun as the center and the light shining in all directions. If you want to draw the emitted solar rays, you can use circles to represent the rays, but the distances between the circles should be equal, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 above. Light can also be represented by lines, but these lines are scattered around the sun and the distances between lights are equal. Therefore, it is very important to show the rays of the sun and divide them equally. A pattern that is not bisected is not the sun.

It can be seen from the combination picture of birds and the sun on the first-phase pottery in Tang Wenhua that the composition of birds and the sun in the early days may be that the bird's head is facing the sun, and the sun pattern of the high temple has evolved into an octagonal star.

The ancient pronunciation of "Japanese" reads ni, and the ancient pronunciation has no R sound, and the R sound belongs to N, so I said that "ni" existed in the Pengtoushan period, and I interpreted the "X" of 16 as "Ni". The original meaning of "you" is a schematic diagram of "communication between men and women" After "Ni" was sacred (it evolved into ancestor worship, which actually traced back to the source of life), it was changed from "X".

The above picture shows the Jiawu engraving. These four words, from top to bottom, mean "looking up at the sun", and the word "sky" is a very vivid word. On Jia Hu, there are also sun lines.

Jiahu culture in Henan province has a typical word "day", and Pengtou Mountain also has the word "day". From the perspective of "day", Pengtou Mountain is earlier, because the "day" of Pengtou Mountain is pictographic, while that of Jia Hu is written. The * * * nature of the two is rice, and the other is the soft-shelled turtle found in Jia Hu, that is, the soft-shelled turtle in Dongting Lake. Jiazi Lake comes from Dongting Lake and comes down in one continuous line with Pengtou Mountain.

Yangshao culture is often superimposed on the bottom of the late Jia Hu, but there are fundamental differences between them. Jiahu culture is not the source of Yangshao culture, but Yangshao culture from the west, living in Jia Hu. At this time, Jaga culture has disappeared.

? Compared with the Central Plains culture (Peiligang culture) in the same period, Jiahu culture is also fundamentally different from Peiligang culture, so the characteristics of Jiahu Lakers as a foreign population are obvious.

Jiahu culture is closely related to Dawenkou culture. Jiahu culture entered the middle of Anhui and met the new culture in the north, forming the early Dawenkou culture.

Xinglongwa Culture is also related to Jiahu culture, and the turtle culture in Hongshan Culture originated in Jia Hu.

The Jiahu culture that went west was Xiawanggang, but it was quickly disappeared by Yangshao culture. Yangshao culture developed to the Central Plains when the early culture of the Central Plains (8,000 years ago) disappeared or lost its development momentum. Yangshao culture, which developed to the Central Plains, is the eastern branch of Nuwa Fuxi, a descendant of Hua Xu, an ancient Xia people.

? 2. Differences and connections between "Japanese" and "China"

Since there are pictographic "sun", literal "sun" and luminous "sun stripes", it shows that "sun" is a multi-concept existence in ancient times and needs a basic judgment.

The connection between "the sun" and "China" is of course the round and bright object in the sky-the sun. What is the difference between "Japan" and "Huahua"? The sun is the sun itself, and the flower is the light of the sun.

Third, the relationship between octagonal star and sun totem

? (A) the ancient octagonal star

Where is the symbol of "flower flower" (sun worship) in Hunan? I have also seen the map of octagonal star spreading from Gaomiao to Jianghuai area and Shandong area, but for this map, I am in Fuxi, Gaomiao. I questioned it in the article. Because the composition of the octagonal star in Dawenkou and the octagonal star in Lingjiatan is relatively short, the high temple in its origin is very complicated.

1 Octagonal diagram combined with Gaomiao Temple

For example, the following two octagonal star maps are the combination patterns of the octagonal stars in Gaomiao. These two modes have different connotations, but they are both * * *.

From the above two combinations of the octagonal star in Gaomiao, we can also see a single octagonal star. If we separate the octagonal star patterns of the high temple combination, we can see that the separated octagonal stars are eight equally divided octagonal stars in eight directions.

The octagonal star of Lingjiatan, the octagonal star of Dawenkou and the octagonal star of Hongshan are not as complicated as the high temple, but simple. I have discussed the reason why some ancient Chinese in Jianghan area moved eastward to Jianghuai, so I believe that the octagonal star will spread to Jianghuai as a cultural symbol, but if I go north to Shandong and Hongshan in the northeast, I can't convince myself.

2, Lingjiatan combination octagonal star

Lingjiatan has two kinds of octagonal star patterns, both of which are carved on jade.

The shape of an eagle. The wings are shaped like pigs. The head is a combination of an eagle mouth and a snail. The back pattern consists of an outer big circle, an inner octagon and an inner small circle. Although it is an octagonal star with an inner circle and an outer circle, the octagonal star of Lingjiatan faces four directions, and every two corners are in the same direction.

The pattern on the jade turtle in Lingjiatan is very complicated. The inner circle is an octagonal star with four directions and two angles in the same direction. Between the outer circle and the inner circle are eight arrows divided into eight directions and eight zones, and outside the outer circle are four arrows divided into four directions and four zones. These arrows can be regarded as "Gui".

Simply look, there are two octagonal stars in Lingjiatan, one is an octagonal star with four directions and two corners in the inner circle, and the other is an octagonal star with two corners in the inner four directions.

3. Octagonal Star in Dawenkou

? The octagonal star in Dawenkou consists of an outer octagon and an inner square, which is a simple octagonal star pattern. The center of the octagonal star in Dawenkou is square rather than round, which is very different. The octagonal star in Dawenkou is an octagonal star with four directions and two angles in the same direction. Dawenkou and Lingjiatan should be culturally related. The octagonal star map on the jade turtle in Lingjiatan is the same as the octagonal star in Dawenkou. The octagonal star map on the back of the Jade Eagle in Lingjiatan is round inside, and the stars outside are the same as those in Dawenkou. So Lingjiatan may be the fusion culture of Dawenkou and Gaomiao.

Talking about the mature gossip culture, Lingjiatan is. The octagonal star map on the jade turtle in Lingjiatan is the original picture of gossip. The jade turtle and the jade plate in Lingjiatan were discovered at the same time. The jade plate was placed in the shell of the jade turtle, which is a realistic version of chinemys reevesii.

Lingjiatan jade plate has a rectangular front and a slightly concave back. Five round holes are drilled on each of the two short sides, nine round holes are drilled on one long side and two round holes are drilled on both ends of the other long side. The middle of the jade plate is engraved with an inner circle, and the inner circle is engraved with an octagonal star map with four directions and two angles in the same direction; Carve a big circle outside the inner circle, and the two circles are divided into eight parts by the pattern of Gui. On the outer edge of the great circle, the four corners of the rectangular jade plate are engraved with square patterns, which are divided into four parts.

The expert's explanation is that the carved pattern on this jade plate reflects the original philosophical thought of Lingjiatan ancestors 5000 years ago, that is, the octagonal star pattern at the center of the circle should represent the sun; The eight turtle patterns outside the small circle and inside the big circle should represent east, west, south, north and southeast, northeast, southwest and northwest. The four GUI-shaped patterns on the four corners outside the great circle should represent four dimensions. Four dimensions and eight directions may be the so-called "four dimensions have been fixed, and gossip is opposite" recorded in Historical Records and Biography of Qiuci. According to the age of Lingjiatan site, Yupan should be the original gossip in the "Huang San" era.

My understanding is slightly different. This is an original gossip, but there is no connotation of sun worship here The square center of the inner circle is octagonal, with four directions, and there are two angles in the same direction, which does not represent the sun, because sunlight is emitted equally, not just in four directions. As for what it is, let's discuss it again!

4. Hongshan Culture octagonal jade.

Hongshan Culture octagonal jade. A small circle inside and an equilateral octagon outside. The jade octagonal star in Hongshan Culture is consistent with the high temple in composition.

(2) Types of octagonal stars: octagonal stars with eight equal parts in eight directions and octagonal stars with two angles in four directions.

Compared with the above-mentioned octagonal stars, the ancient octagonal stars can be divided into two categories, one is an octagonal star with eight directions and eight grades, and the other is an octagonal star with four directions and two angles.

According to the principle of uniform emission of sunlight and the sacred position of octagonal star in ancient times, if octagonal star represents sun worship, it should be an octagonal star that can be used as a totem of sun worship. "Four directions and two angles in the same direction" is not a sun totem.

(C) the sun totem "Hua"

In this way, the symbol of "huahua" in ancient Chinese should be the composition of "outer octagon+inner small circle". The outer octagon stands for sunlight, the inner small circle is the sun body, and the sun body is the sun. So the sun totem is a totem composed of "sun" and "light". As shown in the figure below.

Fourthly, the symbol of "flowers and flowers" in the culture of Gaomiao (sun totem)

During the periods of Pengtoushan culture and Jiahu culture, we can find the pictographic characters "sun" and "sun", which shows that the ancients in that period had the consciousness of worshipping "sun". But goodness has not formed a unified symbol of "Hua" (sun totem). This judgment can be judged from the disorder of the solar pattern and the inconsistency of the sun. Looking for a unified "Hua" symbol, we still have to go back to Gaomiao, because the earliest octagonal star was discovered in Gaomiao, more than 7,000 years ago.

( 1)? The symbolic meaning of "Hua" can be analyzed from the two octagonal star combination patterns of the High Temple.

? 1. Deconstructing the "flower" from one of the octagonal patterns of Gaomiao combination.

The meaning of this pattern is very clear, that is, "the round place lacks sunshine." This pattern can also be made into a compass, which is specially used to set eight directions with the sun. Therefore, the pattern above is actually an orientation map, which is the "compass" of later generations. This picture is a "compass" 7000 years ago.

Deconstructing the above picture can be divided into three composition elements, the big circle represents the sky, the irregular quadrilateral inside represents the earth, and the octagonal star in the middle is actually "Hua".

2. Deconstruct "Hua" from the octagonal star pattern of Gaomiao combination.

This painting has a charm in the sense of calendar and philosophy. One is "four points". Four points is the positioning of "four times". Four o'clock is four time points as long as day and night; The second is "Yin-Yang and Five Elements". In the calendar, the five elements divide the movement of the sun into five periods in a year, namely five seasons. The third is "dividing the land into eight roads." The fourth is the "eight-day tour". There are eight solar terms in a year. This "eight-day tour" is also "China".

Then this picture is a calendar picture, which embodies the original idea of making the earliest calendar. A year is five seasons and ten months, so this picture is "October calendar". 360 days a year. There are five seasons in a year, and each season is 72 days. Two months is a season and January is 36 days.

It says here that "Fuxi was conceived in Hua Xu 12, and it was 12". So this calendar has nothing to do with the legendary Fuxi. What does Fuxi mean by "12 is a year"? I discussed it in the article "The Mystery of the Birth of the Yellow Emperor in Fuxi and the Calendar of the Yellow Emperor in Fuxi", so I won't repeat it here. That's why I said Fuxi was not in the high temple.

(2) You can also find a separate signboard of "Hua" in the High Temple.

This is the signboard of "Hua" in the High Temple. This picture is taken from the picture below.

(3) There is also a red octagonal star pattern (China symbol) in the pattern of "Two Winds Facing the Sun" in the Temple.

Screenshot of the Chaoyang map of Gaomiao Shuangfeng. The red octagonal and small circle pattern on the bird's head is the symbol of China. This picture is taken from the picture below.

Five, "four points and two angles in the same direction" octagonal star is the earliest urban construction drawings.

? (A) the classification of "four points and two angles in the same direction" octagonal star

? Although there are octagons, octagons do not refer to eight directions, but every two corners are in the same direction. In fact, the octagon points in four directions. The octagonal star in Dawenkou and the octagonal star in Lingjiatan are representatives.

The octagonal stars with four points and two angles in the same direction are mainly distributed in Haidai, Jianghuai and the northern part of Taihu Lake. From 5800 years ago to 5000 years ago. It first appeared in Tangjiagang in the early stage of Daxi culture (6000 years ago), and then appeared in Haidai area from the lower reaches of the Yellow River to the northern part of Taihu Lake (6000-5000 years ago). 5000-4000 years ago, the number of western regions was small.

(2) The octagonal star with four directions and two angles in the same direction originated from Tangjiagang culture.

Tangjiagang culture is an independent archaeological culture in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. 200 1 China Heritage Newspaper published Guo Weimin's article "New Understanding of Tangjiagang Culture and Daxi Culture in Dongting Lake Area", arguing that Tangjiagang culture has a specific region, has existed for a certain time, and has specific artifacts. The morphological characteristics of these artifacts are obviously different from other archaeological cultures, which affirms the unique position of Tangjiagang culture as a typical archaeological culture type. At the same time, the archaeological community has identified Tangjiagang culture as the lower layer of Huachenggang Site in Zhang 'an Township, an xiang, the early stratum of Dingjiagang Site in Lixian County, the early stratum of Chengtoushan Site in Lixian County and the first phase of Huarong Liufutai Site.

The earliest octagonal star with four corners in the same direction was unearthed in Tangjiagang. As shown in the above picture. What is this octagonal star?

(3) Tangjiagang is characterized by urban construction, and Tangjiagang's "four directions and two angles in the same direction" octagonal star is the earliest urban construction map.

Tangjiagang has many characteristics. What I value is the urban construction of Tangjiagang.

In Hunan Province, the Pengtoushan site (file 18) found that in the process of survival, ancient humans began to dig ditches around their homes, on the one hand for self-protection and on the other hand for drainage and flood control. Archaeology calls this kind of trench "ring trench". At Chengtoushan site, ancient humans have developed a "moat" defense measure composed of city walls and trenches. Archaeologists believe that there must be a transitional form in the 2000-year evolution from the "ring ditch" of Pengtou Mountain to the "moat" of Chengtou Mountain. What form is this? The third archaeological excavation of Tangjiagang site finally found the "ditch-enclosed soil", which filled the missing intermediate link in the urban construction from Pengtoushan to Chengtoushan. From this point of view, I think that the octagonal star with four directions and two angles in the same direction discovered by Tangjiagang is a drawing of Tangjiagang's urban construction. Later, with the eastward spread of Tangjiagang culture, the octagonal cultural gene of "four directions and two angles in the same direction" was formed in the eastern region.

As shown in the figure below:

Simulation map of Tangjiagang urban construction. Trenches and mounds are irregular circles, cities are squares, and their central axes intersect.

Sixth, the influence of the octagonal star culture on later generations: the Han nationality inherited the Gaomiao culture, and the southwest ethnic minorities inherited the Tangjiagang culture.

1, the Han nationality inherited the octagonal culture with eight directions and eight points.

? Gaomiao culture has a great influence on the Han nationality. The number "eight" plays a very important role in the history, culture and philosophy of the Han nationality. Therefore, fundamentally speaking, Gao Miao culture is one of the important sources of Chinese culture.

The sunglasses of the Han Dynasty are composed of octagonal stars, with eight directions and eight divisions. The octagonal pavilion built by the Han nationality is also an octagonal star composition in eight directions and eight divisions, and the octagonal hat of the Red Army is also an octagonal star composition in eight directions and eight divisions.

2. Now some ethnic minorities inherit an octagonal star with four directions and two angles in the same direction.

? At present, some ethnic minorities have inherited the four directions of the octagonal star and two angles in the same direction. As shown in the figure below:

Zhuang's shoulder strap is octagonal, an octagonal star with four directions and two angles in the same direction.

The octagonal star of Yao costumes is also an octagonal star with four directions and two angles in the same direction.

As can be seen from the above model, Zhuang and Yao have nothing to do with Gaomiao culture, but come down in one continuous line with Tangjiagang culture. Moreover, the original inhabitants of Chengtou Mountain also came from Tangjiagang culture, which may contain the true origin of some ethnic minorities in southwest China. From the source, Gaomiao culture belongs to ancient Han culture, and Tangjiagang culture is the ancient culture of modern southwest minorities.
