A Study of Rock Art Images of Male-Female Paired Arm-Linked Dance in the Inner Mongolia Region

摘要: 内蒙古地区有着丰富的岩画资源，这些岩画涵盖了当时社会生活的方方面面；纵览其中不难发现，舞蹈岩画在其中占有很大比例，这是因为先民运用舞蹈抒发感情和寄托愿望，使舞蹈成为了再现当时社会生活的一面重要的镜子。本文以内蒙古地区男女双人连臂舞岩画为例，探究这种舞蹈背后的繁育崇拜意味，并进一步探索了古代乃至史前先民生活中，繁育崇拜何以占有如此重要的地位。

Abstract: The Inner Mongolia region is rich in rock art resources, which encompass various aspects of social life at the time. A comprehensive review reveals that dance-related rock art occupies a significant proportion, as ancient people used dance to express emotions and convey aspirations, making it an important reflection of contemporary social life. This paper focuses on the male-female paired arm-linked dance depicted in the rock art of Inner Mongolia, exploring the underlying theme of fertility worship associated with this dance form. Furthermore, it investigates why fertility worship held such a prominent place in the lives of ancient and even prehistoric communities.
