韩民族熊图腾文化来源考

以图腾为居地命名，是初民社会的一个普遍规律。关于韩半岛熊图腾崇拜的起源大部分学者认为应受北亚诸民族对熊图腾崇拜的古老传统的影响，但从熊虎图腾崇拜这一点看，韩文化的主体部分来源于中国南方之说是成立的，它可能与彝语支民族文化同源，而它们的共同祖先则可上溯到上古的黄帝族，这可能是韩文化中土著文化部分真正的根。

A Textual Research on the Origin of the Totem-Bear Culture of the Korean Nation

Naming a habitation with a totem was popular, in an earliest human society. The origin of the totem-bear worship in the Korean peninsula, as most scholars believe, must be influenced by the old traditions of worshipping a totemic bear, those of the races in the northern Asia. As for the totemic bear-and-tiger worship, however, it turns out to be tenable that the major part of the Korean culture generates in the South China. It is likely that it shares the source with the people speaking Yi language while their common ancestors may be traced back to the race of Yellow Emperor in the remote ages. And this would possibly be the real root for the culture of the aboriginal Koreans.
