The Diverse Appellations and Identity Recognition of the Bandun Ethnic Group from the Per-spective of "Three Crossings"
The Bandun ethnic group originated in the Ba region during the Warring States period and spread to Shu,Hanzhong,and even Guanzhong during the Wei and Jin dynasties.In different temporal and spa-tial contexts,the appellations of the Bandun ethnic group can be divided into two categories:semantic appellations of the other and phonetic appellations of the ego.The former category of appellation re-flects the changes in their ancestral memory,tax and labor,and statusadministrative resources;The lat-ter type of appellation corresponds to the construction of their bloodline identity.The coexistence of the appellations of other and ego among the Bandun ethnic group for a long time has contributed to their identity recognition,and since the Wei and Jin dynasties,there has been a generalization and integra-tion of appellations,becoming an example of communication,exchange,and integration between mar-ginalized ethnic groups and the Chinese state,as well as between marginalized ethnic groups.
