阿哲主摩奢香夫人与水西彝族文化调查探证

明初贵州宣慰使奢香是中华民族杰出的女政治家。她出生于四川永宁宣抚使门第，与贵州宣慰使水西安氏世代姻亲，她从出嫁水西，佐夫理政，代夫袭职，教子成名直至英年逝世。在她短暂的三十多年的人生道路上，对维护祖国的统一和民族的团结，对开设驿道发展民族经济，对其后的贵州地区建省奠定了有利的基础，对水西地区的政治经济文化作出了积极的贡献。奢香是出身川南彝中的大姓，彝名“扯勒”是川南彝族中的统治家族。奢香属于扯勒家族的后裔，家氏至今仍分布在赤水河两岸的川黔境内。这里的历史文化底蕴深厚，近些年来在赤水河两岸的叙永、古蔺、毕节、大方、黔西、金沙、仁怀、赤水、习水等县境内也发现不少历史文化遗存。
