The Naxi tribe is one
of China’s most interesting ethnic minorities. Scattered
mainly around Yunnan Province, with small settlements
in Sichuan and Tibet, they were first visited by Western
ethnologists in the early part of the 20th century and
have been studied and written about ever since. There
ate about 280,000 Naxi and most live in Lijiang Autonomous
County in northwest Yunnan.
The Naxi have a culture that’s rich and diverse with their own music, art and
most unique of all, their thousand-year-old pictographic writing system which
is similar to hieroglyphics. The Naxi language is also the only remaining pictographic
written language in use.
The Naxi priests are called Dongba and they are an important part of the language.
The Naxi are Buddhists and their ancient Buddhist texts are passed down through
generations of priests who are the caretakers of the texts. Only priests are
allowed to learn the written script and begin studying the pictographs when young,
only becoming fluent after many years its preserving it, the Naxi language is
named Dongba.
The language has approximately 2,200 pictographs. When put together, some sentences
appear as a series of pictures that have many possible interpretations without
any fixed meaning. This highly
symbolic language requires years of study to fully understand, a domain of the
priests who begin studying the scriptures as young children.
The religious scriptures are also a record of Naxi life, recording everything
from politics to poetry to Naxi legends in about 20,000 encyclopedic volumes.
In 1957, the Naxi adopted a writing system based on Latin characters in order
to promote literacy. Sadly, only a few Naxi today can read the Dongba pictographs,
though there are efforts to encourage its study. |
