Culture is the result of long-term creation and accumulation of human beings. However, due to geographical environment, natural conditions, cultural exchanges and other factors affecting human cultural creation, human cultural creation is also different. In particular, different economic types formed by natural factors are extremely important factors that determine the content and characteristics of different material cultures and spiritual cultures. A certain economic structure breeds a certain material culture and ideological culture, and the types and characteristics of economic structure often affect the types and characteristics of material culture and ideological culture. The types of national cultural behavior and psychological quality are the result of historical accumulation and selection in a certain natural environment and closely related economic types. The actual culture that does not conform to the living and development environment will not come into being out of thin air. The royal system of The Book of Rites, the righteous emperor of China and the people of five parties, is sexual and cannot be pushed. It reflects that all ethnic groups living in different environments have their own cultural characteristics, which cannot be easily changed. At the same time, various cultural contents have been created and developed in the same natural environment for a long time, and they have been continuously integrated, inherited and shaped, and finally formed a relatively stable structure, which is the framework of the cultural system. Therefore, the creation of human culture is not dispersed, but exists as a system, which is relatively independent to distinguish it from other systems of culture. This is the systematic and regional nature of culture. Macroscopically, the history of China, a northern nation, spans a long and vast time and space. In the long history, there are many ancient nationalities galloping on the northern land. In the long river of history, some of these ancient peoples have been separated and dispersed several times, while others have quietly withdrawn from the historical stage or even disappeared, leaving only some confusing footprints for future generations. However, when pursuing these traces, later scholars will not only admire the rich cultural content created by these ethnic groups with their diligence and wisdom, but also find that although they are very different, they all show many similarities or similarities in production technology, lifestyle, social system, moral norms, ideology, religious beliefs, literature and art, and form a unique grassland cultural system, as do the Yellow River and Yangtze River basins in southern China. There are many similarities or similarities in the content of northern national cultures, which is an intriguing cultural phenomenon and worth exploring. To sum up, it seems that we can get the answer from the following aspects. First of all, this is because these cultures have the same economic foundation for nomadic hunting. Feeding on aquatic plants, living in a dome, eating livestock and wearing fur can be said to be a common way of life for any nomadic people. The same situation of nomadic people in food, clothing, housing and transportation is the result of nomadic economic life. Genghis Khan's mother used a fierce camel metaphor to warn her son not to do evil. China's famous Kirgiz epic Manas describes the hero Cook as a male camel in heat when he is angry. Ye Chache is humble in appearance and cunning in heart. The ancestor of Liao Dynasty, Luye Baoji, said that he was fierce and stubborn, and his eyes were like camels. In fact, it was just the opposite. Qidan women are good at knowing horses. You can tell which horse is riding by looking at a few clues. Yeainu distinguishes domestic horses from wild horses by observing footprints; LiLin Xiao Lu Lie's father is a groom, because he is very kind to horses. Anyone who has been to pastoral areas knows that American Mongolians know more about livestock habits, especially horses, than farmers know about crops, especially the recognition of horseshoe prints, which is amazing. As nomadic people, ancient Arabs also had keen eyesight. The ancient Arabic classic "Golden Prairie" wrote: In Gifard, that is, in the desert between Egypt and Syria, some Arabs have such insight. When a man steals a few palm fruits from his palm tree and then leaves his hometown for many years, even if they win, I can't see him or appreciate his facial outline. But when they meet again after a long separation, they will immediately recognize their thief, even without any mistakes. Their alertness in this respect is well known.

When they see footprints, they can almost always recognize who passed by. These people can point out the footprints of humans and living animals in the desert to the camp leaders who have wandered in these areas, even though they have never seen the latter, and they can only judge by observing the footprints. This must be a magical skill and a very sensitive sense of smell. In this way, nomadic people all know the habits of livestock or have developed their eyesight and are good at distinguishing the tracks of horses. It is also the result of their engaging in the same nomadic economic life and mastering and accumulating the same knowledge of animal husbandry in this process. As for skilled riding and shooting, riding a high-powered car and playing musical instruments. As long as they live a nomadic life, I'm afraid any country will create this culture. Secondly, the same religious beliefs formed in the same natural and social environment also make different nomadic peoples show many identical or similar characteristics in religious culture. In HarmonyOS's system, the chaos of heaven and earth began to open, and the productivity of early human society was extremely low. The harsh natural environment always threatens the survival of human beings who are still in infancy. In this dangerous and precarious living environment, human beings have to have a strong sense of dependence on the natural environment that determines their own destiny, which leads to the emergence of primitive religions represented by nature worship. As Feuerbach said, human dependence is the foundation of religion; And the object of this sense of dependence is nature. Nature is the original object of religion, which is fully proved by the history of all religions and all nationalities. Nature worship is the earliest and most common form and initial content of human primitive religion. The ethnic groups in northern China are no exception. They believe in Shamanism with nature worship and animism as the main content. In recent years, some researchers believe that shamanism is widely distributed, and even all ethnic groups living in this vast space from Africa through Northern Europe to Asia to North and South America have the commonness of shamanism. But it should be true that shamanism is mainly prevalent in grasslands and virgin forests in northern Eurasia. Whether it is nomadic production or hunting production, in ancient society, we can't transform nature and actively use it like agricultural production, and resist all kinds of sudden natural disasters to a certain extent, but rely entirely on nature passively, which can be said to depend on the sky for food. Therefore, for nomadic people and hunting people, the uncertainty of nature has a greater impact on their survival and production. However, their nomadic and hunting life makes them more frequently exposed to all kinds of bad phenomena in nature than the settled farming people, and they are more vulnerable to the ravages and ravages of nature. Compared with farming people, nomadic hunting people have a stronger awe and worship of nature. This is one of the important reasons why the grasslands and virgin forests in northern Eurasia have become the main areas where Shamanism prevails. The development of Shamanism, with the worship of nature as its main content, has made the natural objects and natural forces that they fear and worship almost the same. No matter what kind of nomadic people or hunters, they deify and worship natural objects and phenomena directly related to their own survival, such as the sun, the moon, stars, mountains and rivers, strange trees and stones. Therefore, people who generally worship Shamanism in northern China should have many similar or identical phenomena in religious culture. Huns always follow the moon. When the moon is full, they attack, and when the moon is short, they retreat. This custom of the Huns was also found in the later Turkic, Qidan, Mongolian and other nationalities. Turks are waiting for the full moon, counting; Volume 290 "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" Volume 290 The first year of Shun, the day of the first month Note: The battle of Qidan is in the same month; It is said that Mongolians choose a day to act, depending on the monthly profit and loss, and will worship at the new moon. When explaining this custom of nomadic people in the Ming Dynasty, Eshan people said: Or the ghost of the moon attacks the Yin, so the profit and loss are retreated. They can defend themselves at night when they say they will enter enemy territory through the moon. ordinary
