论历史教学中炎黄蚩尤问题的处理

“炎黄距今四五千年”这种传统认识没有可靠的文献依据、没有考古学证明及其它相关学科的证据，目前不仅面临着来自考古学和考古材料本身的挑战，而且它已经导致中学历史教材和教师教学用书陷入自相矛盾、思路混乱、不合逻辑、无法自圆其说的窘境。相反．“炎黄距今六七千年”有更多的文献和考古学证据以及天文年代学证据，而且主流学术界已开始摈弃“炎黄五千年”这种百年传统、千古成见。因此建议中学历史教材既讲“炎黄五千年”说，又讲“炎黄历史6500年”新说，实事求是，说明炎黄历史研究的现状，两说各自的依据，存在的问题，同时要与时俱进，跟踪学术进展，直到新的观点得到普遍认同和新的知识结构形成。

How to Introduce the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou in History Teaching

It is facing challenges from archeology now and cause confuses in history teaching in middle schools. On the contrary, much evidence shows that the Yellow Emperor lived 6000 to 7000 years ago. So in history teaching, both of the opinions, their respective evidence and problems should be introduced until new opinion is widely accepted by people.
