Among Earthen Wall Ku Lue:Sheep Scapula Divination Folklore and Local Memory in He Tao Area
The current sheep scapula divination folklore in the He Tao area of Inner Mongolia is not exclusive to no-madic culture,but rather a cohesive representation of pastoral-style memory and the livelihood methods of village people in the northern agricultural and pastoral zone.As a long-lasting historical memory of beliefs,the sheep scapular is a"cul-tural blood bond",connecting the cultural groups dominated by livestock livelihood with the natural areas suitable for agri-culture and animal husbandry,forming a blood relationship between people and land.As a currently shared way of life,scapula divination has become an instinctive way of life through the creation of rituals and taboos within the family,and its use from the family to the village society has broken through the distinction between the Mongols and the Han,and it has been firmly established in the folklore as a local cultural narrative.With the increase of collective festival and custom activities organized by the government,relevant cultural subjects will also take this opportunity to emphasize the Mongo-lian-Han distinction in folk culture.From this,it is concluded that the"ku Lue"type of cognitive logic is presented in the overall interaction between the Mongolian and Han people in the village,and the sheep scapula divination is the non-textu-alized memory and expression of this logic.
