Abstract

Using ethnographic research, field investigation, personal participation and logical analysis, the author studies the inheritance context of the emergence of the Buffalo-fight of Miao “Hanshan Festival” in Yunnan Wenshan area. The study found that the context of the Miao Buffalo-fight manifested as the image of the Miao people's ancestral spirit, agricultural imagery, and reproductive imagery. Buffalo-fight is not only a way of ritual or entertainment in Miao people’s festivals, Buffalo-fight is a tool of expression. Through the Buffalo-fight, the Miao nationality temperament and social characteristics can be constructed and discovered.
