黑水与华夏文化

黑水地望是中国历史地理中的难题，自汉唐以来，众说纷纭，莫衷一是。本文结合青藏高原自然地理，并用语源学藏汉语言文字对比的方法，对《山海经》等经文中关于昆仑墟及其四水地望的记载进行了深入研究，针对历史上考黑水者存在的误区，提出了与前人不同的二点新说：１．青藏高原及其周边地区是华夏民族的主要发祥地之一。２．华与夏不同，华是今日华夏各族祖先的名号，而夏只是华中较大的一支。文中新说不仅从整体上符合历史地解说了经文中昆仑墟及其四水地望，也是探讨炎黄文化源流的一个引端。

Heishui River and HuaXia Culture

Heishui River place is a problem in Chinese historical geography. Since Han and Tang Dynastiest as opinions vary, no unanimous conclusion has been drawn. In this paper, the author makes a deep study on Kunlun site and the four rivers, which are recorded in 《Shan Hai Jing》 etc, by combining the physical geography of the Qinghai-xizang plateau, and also by comparing Tibetan words with Han characters according to etymology. To counter the existing errors among the Heishui River researchers in history, the author advanced the following new thoeries, which are different from the above mentioned: 1. Qinghai-xizang plateau as well as the surrounding regions is one of the main birthplaces of Huaxia Nation; 2. Hua can't be equal to Xia in meaning. Hua is the general name of all the nationalities'an- cestors of Huaxia; While Xia is only a relatively big branch belonging to Hua. This paper not only reasonably explains Kunlun site and the four rivers in a historical attitude, but also is a brick cast to attract jade-leading to the exploration of the origin of Yan-Huang culture.
