新万物有灵论的影响力越来越大,它提供了解释岩石艺术的有用方法,以及超越基于笛卡尔原理的概括模型的方法。然而,对万物有灵论的日益关注存在着用一种概括取代另一种概括的风险。为了避免泛化的陷阱,本文通过加州中南部的一个具体案例研究,探讨了关系本体论在整个土著社会中传播的方式。为此,需要采用“第三空间”方法(Porr & Bell 2011)来详细说明加州中南部岩石艺术和神话的说教和教学叙事作用。用 Bird-David (2006) 的话说,我们的目标是理解万物有灵论认识论如何转化为制度化的认知方式。为此,我结合神话叙事仔细研究了有关岩石艺术年代学的新信息。有人认为,该地区充满活力的象形文字借鉴了景观中特定地点所体现的过去的本体论概念,而神话的叙事结构有助于我们理解岩石艺术作品的叙事结构。这提供了对土著时间观念的欣赏,这反过来表明神话是人类制度的模板,同时将岩石艺术解释为另一种本体论制度,它是与加利福尼亚中南部“延迟回归”复杂社会相关的关系意识形态的重要组成部分。
The increasing influence of New Animism is providing useful ways of interpreting rock art as well as ways to move beyond generalizing models based upon Cartesian principles. However, the increasing attention to animism runs the risk of simply replacing one generalization with another. To avoid the pitfalls of generalization, this article sets out to explore the ways in which relational ontology may have been communicated throughout indigenous society in a specific case study from south-central California. To do this requires adopting a ‘third space’ approach (Porr & Bell 2011) to detail the didactic and pedagogical narrative roles of rock art and mythology in south-central California. Paraphrasing Bird-David (2006), the goal is to understand how an animistic epistemology is enacted into an institutionalized way of knowing. To do this, I look closely at new information on rock-art chronology in conjunction with mythological narratives. It is suggested that the vibrant pictographs of the region drew upon ontological notions of the past embodied at specific places in the landscape and that the narrative structure of myth helps inform our understanding of the narrative structure of rock-art composition. This provides an appreciation of indigenous perceptions of time, which in turn shows that mythology was a template for human institutions while explaining rock art as another ontological institution that was part-and-parcel of relational ideologies associated with ‘delayed-return’ complex societies of south-central California.
