第一篇：浅谈苗族风俗与文化

浅谈苗族风俗与文化

苗族主要聚居于贵州省东南部、广西大苗山、海南岛及贵州、湖南、湖北、四川、云南、广西等省区的交界地带。在中国古代典籍中，早就有关于五千多年前苗族先民的记载，这就是从黄河流域直到长江中游以南被称为“南蛮”的氏族和部落。

苗族十分注重礼仪。客人来访，必杀鸡宰鸭盛情款待，若是远道来的贵客，苗族人习惯先请客人饮牛角酒。吃鸡时，鸡头要敬给客人中的长者，鸡腿要赐给年纪最小的客人。有的地方还有分鸡心的习俗，即由家里年纪最大的主人用筷子把鸡心或鸭心拈给客人，但客人不能自己吃掉，必须把鸡心平分给在座的老人。如客人酒量小，不喜欢吃肥肉，可以说明情况，主人不勉强，但不吃饱喝足，则被视为看不起主人。

说起苗族，大家都会想到一种他们特有的乐器—芦笙。芦笙是苗族传统的簧管乐器，在苗族地区广为流传。据文献记载，芦笙已有3000多年的历史。远在唐代，宫廷就有了芦笙的演奏。当时芦笙被称为“瓢笙”。清人陆次云在《峒溪纤志》一书中，对芦笙的形制和苗族男女“跳月”时演奏芦笙的情景作了具体的描绘：“（男）执芦笙。笙六管，作二尺。笙节参差，吹且歌，手则翔矣，足则扬矣，睐转肢回，旋神荡矣。初则欲接还离，少且酣飞扬舞，交驰迅速逐矣。”由此看出芦笙在古代苗族人民生活中的作用和地位。

现在芦笙的形制已发生了很大变革，分大、中、小等多种类型。均由笙管、笙斗和簧片三部分构成。常用的芦笙管6根，外侧开有接音孔，下端装置铜簧，插入一长形木头葫芦内，每簧一音。在每二三根笙管上端合套竹管作为共鸣管。小芦笙的管长十几公分，大芦笙长四、五米不等。低音芦笙类中，有在大竹筒内装一细竹管，发音者称为“芦笙筒”。现经改革，笙管数增至20余根，每管上端均套用薄铜皮制作的共鸣管，音域可达两个八度又五度。芦笙音色明亮浑厚，男女均可吹奏。每当过年，婚嫁喜事，起房盖屋，人们总要手捧芦笙，载歌载舞，以此抒发自己的欢乐和感情。另外，芦笙不仅是一种单纯的民族乐器，而且是苗族男女青年成婚的重要“媒介”。通过它能使豆蔻年华的青年，互相了解，产生爱慕，结为伉俪。每当风清月夜，有情的小伙子手捧心爱的芦笙吹一首婉转悠扬的爱情曲，姑娘们闻声，就心领神会，以清脆的歌声相对，这种恋爱方式，外行人是听不懂的，内行人，一听自明。因此，芦笙在苗族人民心目中是神圣的，珍贵的，家家离不开它。

斗马是广西苗族的一项民间文娱活动，每年12月26日举行，历时3日。头1日，人们忙着到田里放水捉鱼，煮鲜鱼粥尝新；还蒸糯米饭、酿甜酒、宰鸡杀鸭，招待来自远方的亲友。第2日斗马，第3日赛马，斗马是一项引人入胜的比赛。上午10时许，在一排“过山冲”土枪响过之后，芦笙高奏，舞狮舞龙上下翻腾，后面跟着威武雄壮的马队，雄赳赳地进入斗马场。身着盛装的苗、瑶、侗族姑娘手持彩带在芦笙手外面形成圆圈，踏着芦笙的节奏翩翩起舞。斗马场上，骏马云集，几十匹精选出的好马个个膘肥体壮，在场边跃跃欲试，等待上场。当裁判一宣布斗马上场名单，两列马队各牵出一马，解开绳子，两马即向对方猛扑过来，双脚腾空相峙，互相撕咬，或突然转身翘起后脚，猛踢对方。紧张激烈和

有趣的格斗场面不时引起四周观众的阵阵喝采和欢呼。经过几个回合的决斗，赛场上烟尘滚滚，泥沙飞溅，一匹马倒地或败走便分出胜负。接着又牵另两匹马进场。互相循环决斗，最后确定获胜的前三名。这时人们围拢前来，观赏着满身汗水的获胜马匹，啧啧称赞。胜马的主人也满面笑容地接受人们的祝贺。组织者在群众的簇拥下给胜马披红挂彩，给马的主人发奖。

赛马是对骑手们勇敢和技艺的严峻考验，苗族山区，岭高路陡，羊肠小道，崎岖不平。它要求竞赛者胆大心细，骑术娴熟。竞赛开始，骑手们在五六米远之外，急步前跑，腾空上马。马背无鞍，骑者双腿夹紧马身，马儿在盘山小路上向前飞奔，惊心动魄的场面，令人注目神怡。最先到达终点的骑手得到赞扬和奖励。斗马的那几天，小伙子和姑娘们非常活跃。他们集中在山坡上，开展赛芦笙，“踩堂”等活动。从贵州以及附近村寨前来参加斗马盛会的各族群众，多达两万人以上，不少人还带来香菇，木耳、兽皮、药材、干笋等土特产交换，增添了热烈的气氛。

踩花山是境内苗族人民的盛大传统节日，一般在每年农历正月初

一、初

三、初六这几天举办。凡有苗族居住的各县，这几天都要立花杆，举行隆重的踩花山活动。这既是苗族男女青年谈情说爱的好时机，也是苗族人民开展文体娱乐活动的重要场所。苗家男女老少，穿金戴银，从四面八方赶到花杆脚下，吹芦生、弹响蔑、跳脚架、耍大刀、斗牛、摔跤、斗画眉、爬花杆。

打背节流行于境内富宁县的部分地区，于每年农历正月初三到十五这几天举行，是苗族男女青年的节日。节日中，男女青年欢聚在风景优美的山坡上，当打背开始时，男的蜂拥而出，冲到自己选中的姑娘面前，一手挽住姑娘的脖子，一手蒙住姑娘的眼睛，其他小伙子去打她的背。姑娘也不甘示弱，一边大笑，一边挣扎。挣脱时，捉住小伙子，以其人之道，还治其人之身。整个场地，男追女逐，欢蹦乱跳。打累了，男女双双即各找一个地方打土电话（即用两个竹筒，中间连一长线，各在一方对着竹筒讲话、唱歌都能听见），相互倾吐蜜语衷情，以企结成伴侣。情投意合后，再告诉父母，择吉日成亲

青菜，一般不切碎。

穿戴：苗族的服饰因地区不同而有差异。男，一般老人穿无领斜扣大襟衣，束腰带，穿裤脚，打绑腿。中年人和青年人，穿开襟上衣，短而小，布料多是自产的“家机斑衣”，妇女服饰另具风格，上身穿无领镶边绣花衣，缀栏插花瓣与其间，下身着镶边、绣花或数纱宽脚裤。引人注目的女头帕，一般有一丈多长，颜色是青、蓝两种，黑色相间衬花格子有的包丝帕。

住：1．吊脚楼，吊脚一般2－3屋，飞檐翘角，并有走廊围白木质栏杆，栏杆雕有各种图案。吊脚下层用来贮藏粮食，存放农具、堆放柴草、土灰，或圈牛、羊、猪及厕所等。上层为人居住。2．火炉，形状为方形，高60－70厘米，上面周围用木板盖好，四周用砖、石砌好，中间围成正方形火塘，用来烧火做饭，周围下层为空间，用以关鸡、鸭。天冷时，主、客人都坐在火炉上，说笑、谈论家事和休息。火炉上吊有一个不同形状的木架，将种子、茶叶篓、草鞋等挂在上面。

节日、宗教信仰

节日，除了汉族的节日外，苗族还有以下节日。1．三月初三青年男女对歌恋爱。

2．四月初八吃乌饭，纪念杨再思，也有传说是纪念要一妹乌饭用树叶煮成，要提前将姑娘接回娘家一起吃乌饭；近处的可以不回娘家，但要给她们送去。此俗仅限于杨姓。

3．六月初六敬土地神，到田坎上挂纸、烧香。一般都将家谱晒一次。

4．十月初二过“小年”，要杀老鼠吃。

信仰：1．敬奉杨公再思。过去，乡境内有飞山庙16座。每年秋天举行盛大的庆庙活动。唱几天几晚人戏，其中“扛华山”和“打求财”等是每次必唱的节目，主要内容是，教育家庭和睦。在庆庙期间，要摆猪首、装香、烧纸。2．过去祭祖要杀牛，以自然寨子为整体，举行杀牛仪式，牛内脏用来祭祖先然后每人带一份肉回家。3．敬奉幡蝴，传说幡蝴是苗族的祖先。

婚 丧习俗

恋爱：以歌为媒，农历三月初三，青年男女穿戴整齐，成群结队赶到山头水边，对歌恋爱。情同意合者，便相邀离去，表示恋上了。平时看牛、放羊也对歌，并赠红。双方父母同意便结婚，如不同意，还有逃婚的习俗。

结婚：一般在结婚前一个月，长则半年，就开始哭嫁。对长辈要一个一个地器，然后再送礼物，现在改变了许多。男女结婚时，女方和来人到男方家吃三天三晚酒，这三天新娘只能同伴娘睡，不能与新郎同床。三天后，新娘与伴娘一起回娘家生活，二年、三年、五年不等。男方有农事需人帮忙，接女方在男方家同住。待女方怀孕后，才能接新娘到男方家长住期共同生活。

丧事：老人落气时，要抬到中堂里，坐在正中，备有斗（容器）、凉筛，坐在斗上脚踏凉筛落气。洗尸，由长教子井里担水，参入桃叶、菖莆叶煮成温水给洗尸，洗过的水（倒入

便桶），让其后代每个尝三点，表示吃字不愁，叫“衣饭水”，在死者身上围白线，一岁一根，平时掉的牙齿要保存着，殓时放入棺材内，死后头发禁烧。进棺材时，口含银，手捏茶叶米还要到飞山庙点

亮。

苗族的建筑在各地也有很大差别。黔东南居民住木制平房和楼房。楼房一般为两层，建筑形式多为“吊脚楼”(即按山坡斜度竖桩，在桩上建筑)，屋顶为双斜面。顶棚上层贮藏粮食、杂物，吊脚楼下堆放杂物或圈养牲畜。湘西和贵州松桃等地，采用木质结构、双斜面瓦顶或草顶平房，每幢3～5间，“偏厦”作灶房或牲口圈。过去，地主或富裕人家还筑有庭院，并砌高墙或石碉围护。云南文山地区苗族居民住宅的墙壁多用竹条编织、外面糊上泥土的方法建造，屋顶为平形草顶。昭通地区的苗族居民多装权权房”，即一种用几根树干交叉搭糊，盖上茅草，用树枝或竹子编织、糊泥作墙的房屋。一般隔为两间，人畜各一。海南岛苗族住的是长而窄的茅草房，三间一幢，屋檐较长，檐下走廊是休息的地方。川南和黔西北的苗族多住士墙草顶或瓦顶的房屋。

苗族一般是一夫一妻的小家庭，财产由男子继承，主妇在家庭中享有较多的权力和地位。年老父母一般由幼子供养。有的地区，有父子连名的习惯，子名在前，父名在后，平时都只呼本名，不连父名。由于受汉族宗法封建的影响，有的制定字辈、建立宗祠、修纂家谱。苗族青年男女婚姻比较自由，男女青年通过“游方”(黔东南)、“坐寨”(广西融水)、“踩月亮”(云南文山、楚雄)、“跳花”(黔中、黔西)、“会姑娘”(湘西)等社交活动，自由对歌，恋爱成婚。云南楚雄等地有“姑娘房”制度，以便择配良偶。也有父母包办婚姻的，一般通过亲友撮合，讲门当户对。苗族妇女有婚后“不落夫家”的习俗，特别在黔东南至今仍有保留。有的地区苗族还有“还姑娘”、“转房”、“妻姊妹婚”等习俗。

第三篇：英语课的演讲稿--苗族风俗文化

Good afternoon, everybody!Today I would like to talk about customs of Miao nationality in our country.Now it has a population of more than 7 million.Half of them live in Guizhou province, and others dwell in Yunnan, Hunan, Sichuan and other places.They have their own language and characters which are just as this image showed.Their houses, which are called Diao Jiao Lou, were built of wood with national feature.The foothold of the house look precarious, but it is actually steady and safe.The music and dance there has a long history, this picture shows Tai ping Xiao, this one describes Tiao Yue, and this one expresses Gu Wu.Miao women's beautiful skirts and silver accouterments are known all over the world for their nice work.They have lots of festivals, such as Climbing Festival, Autumn Festival, Dragon Boat Festival etc.Now let me introduce you some interesting customs of Miao nationality.Lu Sheng Wu will be the first.Lu Sheng's sound is bright and thick, and could be played by both men and women.When celebrating the New Year, getting married or building new house, people always hold Lu Sheng in hands, sing and dance gladly to express their happiness.When people play Lu Sheng, they can also do some difficult activities such as handstand, rolling, climbing rods, human pyramid and so on.That's really surprising.Reed-pipe Wind Instrument Festival is traditional.It is not only for trading, but also for youth to find a lover.During the festival, competing horse skill, ball sports and other events will be held.Festival in different area is different greatly.Dragon Boat Festival, Flower Mountain Festival, Eating New Festival, Tomb-sweeping Day, and other festival are go after one another.Tramping Flower Mountain event is important.A couple who can have bear a baby plant a tree near the village and hang a bottle of wine on for praying a child.Young man and woman will dance and sing under the tree, and many of them fall in love.Then we will look at Miao's marriage custom.“pinch finger” is one way for Miao guys to express their love.When lots of people get together in festivals, the guy would crowd to his lover silently and pinch her finger gently.If the girl wants to accept the guy's love, she will pinch the guy's finger as a response, otherwise she won't do anything and the guy would know he is rejected.Once the love relationship is established, the young man and woman will date as other lovers.They make marks with branches, leaves, weeds and wild flowers with different meaning: weed mark means dating, flower mark expresses the secret meeting, while weeds and flowers linking together shows the decision of marriage.After associating for some time, lovers would exchange keepsakes such as towel, cigarettes, silver hairpin etc.Later, they will tell their parents, and the guy's parents would invite a matchmaker to propose for him, then the marriage date would be settled.Thirdly, I will talk about girls' beautiful skirts.It is said that, a long time ago, a peacock saw a Miao girl;it spread its wings to compare with the girl's skirt, but it was failed and flied away jealously.The legend shows people's praise of these girls' hard-working.All girls there can embroider.Once a girl was born, her mother would try her best to teach her identifying different colors.By the time the girl could use needle and thread, her mother would teach her to embroider, because a girl who can't embroider well, no mater how beautiful she is, won't attract guys' attention.In my opinion, Miao is a kind, simple and hard-working nationality.They have retained a lot of interesting customs.I wish I can go to their inhabitation one day, and the same to you.

第四篇：苗族风俗作文400字

不知道大家对苗族了解多少，我对少数民族了解也不是很多，但是最近在书上了解了苗族的风俗，其中我觉得苗族的花山节很有趣。

农历正月初二至初七，是云南屏边、蒙自、河口等地苗族人民一年一度的“踩花山”节。

每到这个时候，来自各村各寨的苗族人民，潮水般地从四面八方几个苗村寨之间的开阔坡地上。“花杆”是踩花山节的重要标志，一般选择挺直高大的青松或柏树，扎以鲜花，彩旗。定花村的人(又称花杆头)是大家公认的“好心肠的人”。这人必须在节日的第一个早晨，趁太阳出山以前把花杆竖好。

“踩花山”这天，首先由“花杆头”向前参加“踩花山”的人敬酒，祝福，随后宣布“踩花山”节开始。这时，花山场内外锣鼓齐鸣，鞭炮声，铜炮枪声此起彼伏，鲜花、朋旗迎风招展，各种欢庆活动先后开始进行。青年男女有的对唱山歌，有的跳三步舞、蹬脚舞，有的跳狮子舞，还有的斗牛，整个花山场上一片欢腾。

滇东北和滇南一带苗族，每年农历六月六日过“踩花山节”。传说古时苗族战败流落异乡，想起祖先东逃西散的苦，伤心落泪。一年六月初六，祖先显灵，劝他们不要太难过，应该到高山顶上吹芦笙、唱歌跳舞给我们看。说完天上落下一朵花，挂在一棵树上。大家围着这棵树歌舞，吹芦笙，这年的庄稼长得特别好。从此后，每年六月六，苗家都要穿上节日盛装，到高山上栽一棵花树，举行跳芦笙舞、斗牛、跳狮子舞、爬花杆等活动。其中，引人注目的是爬花杆，谁爬得高，就把一个猪头和好酒奖给谁。

这就是苗族的花山节，是不是很热闹啊?

第五篇：家乡风俗与文化

家乡风俗与文化

新闻七班 陈淑贞 20102806032 我的家乡隶属于江门市台山县，是县下的一个小镇——海宴镇。

小镇近海，位于中国的东南边，镇里也多渔民，大网一抛就是一辈子。除此以外，镇里农民大多以此为生。值得一提的是，镇里有出国的传统，因民国时期许多人被“卖猪仔”到了南洋或者美国等地（有天生的地理优势），有些人经历种种煎熬以后，顽强的活了下来，便眷顾还远在家乡的亲人，从此经常寄钱回来或者干脆帮助人移民到国外。而移民到国外得人大多是在外熬苦，可是在家乡的人常常可以得到国外亲人的资助，慢慢地整个小镇的风气变得慵懒，人们不务正业，不思进取，坐等“不劳之获”。很多时候，走在镇上的大街小巷，我们看到更多的不是小镇的淳朴风情，不是美丽乡村的风景如画只是一张张麻将桌子和冰冷冷的麻木面孔，或许倒霉的时候看到输了钱的人在爆粗口。

麻将已经成为小镇居民生活里的重要角色，也是闲来无事时的最大消遣。

然而走进村里，你会重新发现这个小镇这些生活变得可爱，也许是村里稍微淳朴些。很多时候，他们遵循日出而作日落而息的自然规则。晨起，喂鸡洗地，收集柴火。午时，庭院纳凉，唱唱木鱼，坐在一起唠嗑的年轻妇人看看钟表的指针，家里的孩子快要放学了，便纷纷起来洗手煮饭做羹汤。坐在门口高高阶梯上的老人多数手里会把一条长长竹子，在竹子的顶端还系一个废弃的塑料袋——为了防止家养的鸡跑到家里来弄得满地鸡粪，家里顽皮的小孙子放学归来，非缠着她将很小时候去放牛挖红薯的故事告诉他，百听不厌。很快吃了晚饭，村里i个老人互相串串门，等到七八点了就回屋睡觉，这样，一天就过去了。我离家已多年，在都市生活惯了厌恶了，无时无刻不想念这样慢悠悠的日子，生命就这样汩汩流淌，我并不需要很费力的踮脚张望。

每一年都有新的婴儿出生，都有嫩白的皮肤樱桃的嘴，村里的大沙池一年一年地孩子们还在那里嬉戏。可我想，孩子们最高兴的应该是每年大大小小的约定俗成的节日。小村镇里节日很多，大概是生活太平淡太庸繁，总要弄些节目出来调调味。幸福的总是我们这些小孩有的玩有的吃还有得拿。

正月十五的元宵节，看花灯吃汤圆；二月里有个观音诞；三月里有个三月三，那天村民们会用艾草做糍粑，做黑色的饺子，用糍粑做小狗给小孩佩戴着辟邪；五月有端午节，吃黄皮，吃凉饭，吃粽子，吃龙船饭；六月里有六月十九，全村做各种糕点以飨神灵。

七月流火，可是我们不怕热，皆因有两个大节日，一是七夕，另一个是七月三十日的地灯节。据说，地灯节是为了纪念地藏王。在神话的年代里，相传地藏王看不过眼人间的疾苦，派牛魔王下凡拯救世人，可是牛魔王担心当他老了以后无力犁田的时候人们会把它宰了吃他的肉，地藏王说不用担心，他们不会这样做的。可是事与愿违，牛魔王最后被吃了。牛魔王满肚皮怨恨，赶到天上找地藏王算帐，一把挖出地藏王眼珠，顺手抛出南天门。玉皇大帝件地藏王瞎了眼，不能管账，一气之下把牛魔王永远驱逐下凡间永世做苦力，永远不得回天庭。地藏王依然很关心民间疾苦，看不见就用耳朵贴在地上听人们讲话，观世音觉得他很可怜。于是慈悲每年七月三十送他一瓶杨枝甘露让他开眼看人间，人们为了报答地藏王，每年都要插地香好让他看得见人间。记得，掌灯时分，家家户户在自家房子的四周绕一个圈间隔着插地香，远远望去，就好像蜿蜒着一条一条的火龙。第二天，由自家的孩子把燃烧剩下的蜡烛棍子收集回来。还可以织成一张张小木排来装零食吃。这又是一种乐趣。

八月时候有中秋节，九月有重阳，十月有灯笼节，十一月冬至，在我们那边是“冬至比年大”的，十二月煮油饭，正月新年。新的一年，新的希望便又开始了。
