摘要
传世文献和出土材料相互证明,中国夏代前后曾发生了较大规模的洪水灾害,故“禹画九州”并非虚构而成。“禹画九州”相关传说在商周时期便已盛行。春秋以降,“禹画九州”传说经过传播与改造后演变为夏人祖先大禹治水后分布的国土。春秋时期“九州”观演变为三种含义:一是夏代的国土称谓,也称“禹迹”“九有”“九围”“九域”“九牧”“九鼎”等;二是地名,即炎黄部落后裔共同生活区域,具体在今陕西中南部、河南西部和山西南部地区;三是州邑名称,其地望在今河南南阳地区附近。“九州”作为中国古代早期国土称谓,对中国古代多民族共同体意识形成与发展产生深远影响。
The historical literatures and unearthed materials mutually prove that there were large-scale flood disasters in China before and after the Xia Dynasty.Therefore,“Yu dividing into nine states”is not a fiction.The legends of“Yu dividing into nine states”began to prevail during the Shang and Zhou dynasties.Since the Spring and Autumn Period,the legend of“Yu dividing into nine states”has been spread and transformed into a land distributed by Dayu after controlling the floods.In people's minds,“Jiuzhou”began to be associated with the territory or world of Xia Yu,also known as“Jiuyou”,“Jiuwei”,“Yu Ji”,and so on.Under this influence,“Jiuzhou”finally developed into an early land title in China,which has far-reaching significance for the formation and development of the awareness of the ancient multi-ethnic community in China.
