 '''外形和习俗'''
 独龙族的外形特色是男女均散发，前垂齐眉，后披在肩上，左右盖耳。他们过去都喜欢坠系耳饰和佩挂项链，如今男子已极少系戴配饰。过去独龙族女子有文面的习惯。文面一般在十二三岁时进行。文面时，先用竹签或树枝蘸锅烟灰水在脸部描好纹路，干后，拿一根长有硬刺的老荆棘自上而下地对准脸上图案，再用木棍轻轻敲击沿纹路打刺。拭去血水，敷以锅烟灰或一种深色的草汁并反复擦揉刺纹，使之渗入皮下。待7天左右，被刺纹处红肿结痂，等创口愈合脱痂后所纹图案呈青蓝色，再也洗抹不掉，永远留在脸上。文面的样式因地区不同而各有差异，通常在独龙江上游一带是满面文，即前额、双颊、鼻梁及上下唇都刺有花纹；下游一带则只在鼻尖刺一圈和唇下刺两三路。对于独龙族文面习俗的由来，人们有许多不同的说法：有的人认为文面是独龙族女子的成年礼；有的人认为文面是独龙族对美的追求以及避邪消灾的需要；有的人则认为是历史上为躲蔽外族人掳掠妇女而来；有的还认为与独龙族早已消失的图腾崇拜物有着某种联系。新中国成立以后，这种文面习俗已逐渐被独龙族妇女所摒弃。

		+
		+	摘要
		+	独龙族主要分布在云南怒江州贡山独龙族怒族自治县，是中国人口较少的少数民族之一，也是云南省人口最少的民族。根据2010年人口普查数据，独龙族人口约7000人。独龙族使用独龙语，没有本民族文字。
		+	独龙族主要分布在云南省西北部怒江傈僳族自治州的贡山独龙族怒族自治县西部的独龙江峡谷两岸、北部的怒江两岸，以及相邻的维西傈僳族自治县齐乐乡和西藏自治区察隅县察瓦龙乡等地。缅甸境内也有不少独龙人居住。
		+	独龙族原有原始群婚的习俗，现已不存在。独龙族人相信万物有灵，崇拜自然物，相信有鬼。男女均散发，少女有纹面的习惯。
		+
		+	民族特点
		+	独龙族的族源及民族的形成，还没有较为清楚的脉络及线索，但从语言系属上来看，作为汉藏语系藏缅语族的独龙族，应当来源于氐羌族群。该民族内部流传着两种传说：一认为独龙族是土著民族。二认为独龙族最初居住在怒江一带，后因出猎偶然来到独龙江河谷，看到这里不仅有宽阔的猎场，而且还有较为平坦的台地，便陆续迁居至此。在独龙族约15个氏族中，有8个氏族的传说都说来自怒江。而且从语言以及过去曾有过的文面习俗等文化特征来看，独龙族与贡山的怒族也很相近。近年来大多数学者认为后一种说法比较可信。
		+	独龙语中氏族是同一祖先传承下来具有血缘关系的共同体。大多数独龙族人的氏族观念已十分淡薄，已无共同的地域以及更多的政治经济联系而显得十分松弛。只是以一种各兄弟家族所公认的祖先象征物留存在大家的记忆之中。氏族名称也没有图腾的内容，多是以该氏族的某些特征来称呼。氏族成员间有互相帮助及保护的责任，实行血族复仇制，任何一个成员受到外人的欺凌以至杀害，其他成员都有义务为他报仇。同一氏族内分出的家族之间不能通婚。
		+	独龙族相信万物有灵，比较普遍地相信鬼魂的存在和作用，他们对自然界的认识和崇拜集中表现在对各种鬼魂的信奉与祭祀上。而“神”似乎还没有完全从其鬼魂观念里分离出来，他们认为鬼魂主宰人类一生的祸福。20世纪30、40年代，基督教传入独龙江地区后，下游的部分独龙族群众开始信教。
		+
		+	文化特点
		+	历史上，独龙族没有自己的民族文字，仅以刻木记事、结绳算数及画图、刺绣图案来表达各种思想感情，可认为是文字萌芽的初始阶段。他们使用的独龙语属汉藏语系藏缅语族，语支归属尚无定论。1983年，根据广大独龙族干部群众的意愿，云南省民委民委派遣龙乘云同志协助在贡山工作的独龙族语言专家木里门·约翰创制了独龙族拼音文字方案。

		+	外形和习俗
		+	独龙族的外形特色是男女均散发，前垂齐眉，后披在肩上，左右盖耳。他们过去都喜欢坠系耳饰和佩挂项链，如今男子已极少系戴配饰。过去独龙族女子有文面的习惯。文面一般在十二三岁时进行。文面时，先用竹签或树枝蘸锅烟灰水在脸部描好纹路，干后，拿一根长有硬刺的老荆棘自上而下地对准脸上图案，再用木棍轻轻敲击沿纹路打刺。拭去血水，敷以锅烟灰或一种深色的草汁并反复擦揉刺纹，使之渗入皮下。待7天左右，被刺纹处红肿结痂，等创口愈合脱痂后所纹图案呈青蓝色，再也洗抹不掉，永远留在脸上。文面的样式因地区不同而各有差异，通常在独龙江上游一带是满面文，即前额、双颊、鼻梁及上下唇都刺有花纹；下游一带则只在鼻尖刺一圈和唇下刺两三路。对于独龙族文面习俗的由来，人们有许多不同的说法：有的人认为文面是独龙族女子的成年礼；有的人认为文面是独龙族对美的追求以及避邪消灾的需要；有的人则认为是历史上为躲蔽外族人掳掠妇女而来；有的还认为与独龙族早已消失的图腾崇拜物有着某种联系。新中国成立以后，这种文面习俗已逐渐被独龙族妇女所摒弃。

		+	Abstract
		+	The Dulong people primarily inhabit Gongshan Dulong and Nu Autonomous County in Nujiang Prefecture, Yunnan Province. They are one of the smallest ethnic groups in China and the least populous ethnic group in Yunnan Province. According to the 2010 population census, the Dulong population is approximately 7,000. The Dulong people speak the Dulong language but do not have their own written script.
		+	Geographically, the Dulong people mainly live along the Dulong River Valley in the western part of Gongshan County, the northern banks of the Nu River, and surrounding areas such as Qile Township in Weixi County and Chawalong Township in Zayu County, Tibet. A significant number of Dulong people also reside in Myanmar.
		+	In the past, the Dulong people practiced primitive group marriage, a custom that has since disappeared. Their people believe in animism, worship natural elements, and believe in spirits. Both men and women wear their hair loose, while young women used to have the tradition of facial tattoos.
		+
		+
		+	Ethnic Characteristics
		+	The origin and formation of the Dulong ethnic group remain unclear, and no definitive lineage or historical trajectory has been established. However, linguistic studies suggest that the Dulong people, belonging to the Tibeto-Burman language family within the Sino-Tibetan language system, may trace their ancestry to the Di-Qiang ethnic group.
		+	There are two traditional legends about the Dulong people’s origins. One legend claims that the Dulong people are indigenous to the region. The other suggests that they originally lived near the Nu River and later migrated to the Dulong River Valley after discovering it while hunting. The region offered abundant hunting grounds and relatively flat terraces, which attracted gradual settlement. Among the approximately 15 clans of the Dulong people, the origins of 8 clans are said to trace back to the Nu River. Furthermore, linguistic similarities and cultural traits, such as facial tattooing, reveal close connections between the Dulong and the Nu people of Gongshan. In recent years, most scholars consider the second legend to be more credible.
		+	In the Dulong language, clans are communities that share blood relations and are descended from a common ancestor. However, the concept of clans among the Dulong people has significantly weakened over time. Clans no longer share common territories or maintain strong political and economic ties, and their cohesion has diminished. What remains is the symbolic representation of the clan’s shared ancestry, which is preserved in collective memory through ancestral symbols recognized by all clan members. Clan names lack totemic significance and are usually derived from specific characteristics of the clan.
		+	Within the clan, members are expected to assist and protect one another. The practice of blood vengeance is observed, meaning that if a member is wronged or killed by an outsider, other clan members are obligated to seek revenge. Intermarriage between families within the same clan is strictly prohibited.
		+	The Dulong people believe in animism and widely acknowledge the existence and influence of spirits. Their understanding and reverence for the natural world are reflected in their belief in and worship of various spirits. The concept of “gods” is not entirely distinct from the idea of spirits in their worldview. Spirits are believed to govern the fortunes and misfortunes of human life.
		+	In the 1930s and 1940s, Christianity was introduced to the Dulong River area. Subsequently, some Dulong communities in the lower reaches of the river converted to Christianity.
		+	Cultural Characteristics
		+	Historically, the Dulong people did not have their own written script. They relied on methods such as carving wood to record events, knotting ropes for calculations, and expressing emotions through drawings and embroidery patterns. These practices are considered the initial stage of writing’s development. The Dulong language belongs to the Tibeto-Burman language family of the Sino-Tibetan language system, though its specific branch remains uncertain.
		+	In 1983, based on the wishes of the Dulong community, the Yunnan Provincial Ethnic Affairs Commission appointed Long Chengyun to collaborate with Dulong language expert Mulimen John, who was working in Gongshan, to create a phonetic script for the Dulong people.
		+	Appearance and Traditional Practices
		+	The traditional appearance of the Dulong people is characterized by loose hair for both men and women, with the hair in the front reaching the eyebrows and the back draping over the shoulders, covering the ears on both sides. Historically, both men and women adorned themselves with earrings and necklaces. Today, men rarely wear these accessories.
		+	A notable custom of Dulong women in the past was facial tattooing, known as "Baktu" in the Dulong language. This practice was usually performed when girls were around 12 or 13 years old. The process began with using a bamboo stick or twig dipped in soot to outline patterns on the face. Once the design dried, a thorny twig of aged bramble was used to prick along the outlines, and the skin was lightly tapped with a wooden stick. Afterward, soot or a dark herbal juice was applied repeatedly to the pricked areas to ensure the pigment penetrated the skin.
		+	Within about seven days, the pricked areas would swell and scab. Once the scabs healed and fell off, the tattooed patterns remained permanently in a dark blue color. The designs varied by region. In the upper reaches of the Dulong River, full-face tattoos were common, covering the forehead, cheeks, nose bridge, and lips. In contrast, in the lower reaches, tattoos were limited to a ring around the nose tip and a few lines below the lips.
		+	The origin of the facial tattooing custom is debated. Some believe it served as a coming-of-age ceremony for Dulong girls. Others suggest it was a form of beauty enhancement or a way to ward off evil spirits. Another explanation is that the tattoos were historically used to prevent women from being abducted by outsiders. There are also theories linking the custom to long-lost totemic worship practices of the Dulong people.
		+	Since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, this tattooing custom has gradually fallen out of practice among Dulong women.
		+
		+	Conclusion
		+	The Dulong people, despite their small population and remote location, possess a rich and unique cultural heritage. From their animistic beliefs and clan-based social structures to their traditional facial tattooing and efforts to preserve their language, the Dulong culture provides invaluable insights into the diverse ethnic tapestry of China.
		+
		+	Questions
		+	1、What is the language of the Dulong people?
		+	2、What are the characteristics of the religious beliefs of the Dulong?
		+	3、What are the possible reasons for the Dulong women's literacy?
