Study on Spatial and Temporal Distribution and Evolution of Cultural Heritage in Guangdong Province:Taking cultural heritage protection units as an example
Taking the cultural relics protection units in Guangdong Province as a sample,this study uses math-ematical statistics and spatial analysis to examine the spatial structure of Guangdong's cultural heritage and its evolution in different historical periods. The study shows that before Sui and Tang dynasties,the cultural heritage of Lingnan region had a typical maritime character,but the overall degree of development was not high. After the Song and Yuan dynasties,the development of Guangdong became more and more mature,and the cultural and geographical pattern of the triad of Guangfu,Chaoshan and Kejia cultures took shape;after the Ming and Qing dynasties,Guangdong developed into an advanced region of the country,and its cultural heritage flourished. Dur-ing the historical period,Guangdong was molded into the cultural core area of the Pearl River Delta,and three sub-core areas were formed,namely,northern Guangdong,eastern Guangdong,and western Guangdong,with a spatial structure of radial agglomeration between the core area and sub-core areas connected by three axes,name-ly,the Xijiang River,the Beijiang River,and the coastal area along the eastern coast of Guangdong. Factors such as transportation,economy,politics and migration shaped the spatial pattern of cultural heritage and its evolution.
