摘要
黎族文身有着深刻的伦理原因,是古代黎族母系氏族为抑止血缘婚所刻下的氏族标志,是乱伦禁忌在黎族氏族社会留下的印记。它深藏的伦理考虑和设计已被模糊在宗教、审美乃至现实解说的时间烟尘中,它原本所表达的氏族含义远不似人们认定的那样表面、浅泛。其意义和价值在于:在数千年没有同一语言、没有文字的环境中,统一了黎族的伦理秩序,保证了这个民族的生息延续。
As a sign invented by the ancient matriarchy to guard against an act of blood marriage, the tattoo of the Li ethnic group holds more profound ethical reasons than assumed to be. It also represents an ancestral mark of incest taboo inherited from the ancient clannish society of the Li people. Its significance and value lies in that it has helped to unify the ethical order of the whole ethnic group, and to ensure a healthier and stronger ethnic group over thousands of years of time when there were no common language or speech.
