目前對於平埔西拉雅族的信仰文化研究,多以其特殊的祭儀文化表徵來瞭解這個族群,並探究其與漢文化之間的關係。由於各西拉雅聚落染受到不同程度的漢文化,原平埔在地文化也做了配合的調整與改變,同時也重構出新的文化內涵與象徵內容,導致了目前不同的聚落對於其信仰文化皆呈現不同的面相,因此在各地方所表現出來的整體樣貌,存有顯著的差異。台南縣東山鄉吉貝耍聚落的哮海祭典,為台灣中最獨特的內陸型海祭,族群透過該祭儀與環境結合,使其氛圍得以回歸具神聖性的原初時間並建立起神聖空間。空間的精神意涵與族群對空間的認知觀念交互作用使空間因而產生神聖性格,相對地影響族群對空間的使用方法。族群在其文化體系之下形塑出一普及價值觀,建立出對神聖空間的崇敬心理,因而被空間的氛圍制約並需要服從其神聖性。當空間精神成為集體化意識,人們共同承擔起對空間環境的責任,留傳後世族群的永續發展向度,將不只是與環境、與資源之間的協調,更是一種具有生命向度的永續連結。本文以吉貝耍聚落為例,試闡述西拉雅族吉貝耍聚落的信仰神聖空間的空間涵構關係,以及聚落中居民在文化背景脈絡之下對其信仰神聖空間的使用行為與空間代表意義之間的交互影響。重新檢視傳統信仰的啟發作用。

The recently researches on the belief culture of Pingpu Siraya have focused on its distinctive symbols of rituals and the relationship between Siraya culture and Han''s culture. Each Siraya settlement appears different degree of influence from the Han culture which indicates the indigenous local culture has adjusted to the ambient changes, and has reconstructed a new culture content and symbolization. The result of the belief culture in each settlement leads to evident divergence and different forms today. In Dong-shan, Tainan, the Haw-hai ceremony of the Kabuasua tribe, which is the most unique inland ocean sacred ceremony in Taiwan, combines the tribe with the environment, making the atmosphere returning to the sacred primordial time when the sacred space was established consequently. The interaction between the spiritual meaning and the space cognition of the tribe then ensues the sacred characteristics of the space, and affects the space usage of the Siraya relatively. The Siraya therefore develops a common form of value and the respect to the sacred space, which is restricted by the atmosphere and becomes crucial for them to obey the sanctity of the space. We took the Kabuasua tribe for example, expounding the space structure of Siraya''s belief of sacred space . In addition, the interplay between the meaning of space and how people in the tribe use the sacred space under the influences of their culture background. |
