三星堆青铜直目人面像的历史文化意义研究

由巴蜀古史和古蜀族群的相关神话,可以认为三星堆发现的青铜直目人面像是人类对远古时期特殊历史阶段的记忆,是神话、历史和宗教的混合物,既是对烛龙神话和蜀王传说的历史记忆,也是原始图腾和宗教祭祀的遗沉,融合了图腾崇拜、祖先崇拜、神灵崇拜和自然崇拜的多重文化内涵,在以祖先崇拜和神灵崇拜为主旨的同时,又保留了自然崇拜和图腾崇拜的某些原始意味,展示了人类从自然崇拜向拟人形态的社会神崇拜过渡的中间形态所应有的特点。

On the Historical and Culture Meaning of Straight-Eye Statues Discovered in Sanxingdui

Through investigating mythology related to ancient history and ethnic groups of Sichuan Province, this paper concludes that the Bronze Straight-Eye Statues discovered in Sanxingdui are the human memory of special historical phases in remote antiquity and the mixture of mythology, history and religion. They are not only the historical memory of King Shu legend but also inheritance of primitive totem and religious sacrificial ceremony, which integrate multiple cultural connotations in totemism and worships of ancestors, deities and nature. While regarding worships of ancestors and deities as substance, they retain some primitive implication of nature-worship and totemism, and then reveal all the supposed features of a transitional form from nature-worship to anthropoid society-worship.
