摘要
麦积山石窟169、69窟间浮塑交龙装饰龛楣图像,长期被一些研究者误读为“伏羲女娲”,并与天水作为“伏羲女娲”故乡的人文背景相联系。本文在详细考察洞窟图像的基础上,结合佛教经典与文献的相关记载,并参照国内其它石窟的龙装饰图像的情况,指出交龙龛饰的石窟造型图像是佛教中“天龙八部”之一的护持佛法的龙众,是佛国世界的守护神。麦积山石窟交龙龛饰图像与中国传统文化中的“伏羲女娲”无关。
The inage of empaistic intertwined dragons on the lintel between Maijishan grotto 169 and 69 have long been mistakenly regarded as Fuxi Nuwa, and normally related to the humanity background of taking Tianshui as Fuxi - Nuxa＇ s hometown. Based on carefully observing cave images, Buddhism sutra and related documents, and images of dragon decorations in other grottoes, this paper argues that the inage was a common dragon of safeguarding power of Buddha in Buddhism and a numen in the Buddhism world. The image of Maijishan intertwined dragons has no concern with Fuxi Nuwa in Chinese traditional culture.
