匈奴以畜牧为业、兼营狩猎的游牧生活形态已是学术之共识,土地的价值似乎远不及农业社会。实则,土地曾在匈奴社会经济、政治军事、精神信仰等方面发挥重要作用,其中蕴含的定居因子与匈奴社会发展之间存在较为密切的关系。这对于匈奴民族的汉化,乃至最终融入农耕文明社会产生了不容忽视的影响。以匈奴为代表的少数民族汉化和各民族大融合促进了中国古代和谐边疆之构建。 It is an academic consensus that the Huns, who used animal husbandry as their own industry and engaged in nomadic life hunting, may seem far less valuable than agricultural society. In fact, the land once played an important role in the Huns social economy, political and military, spiritual beliefs and so on. The settlement factors contained therein have a close relationship with the social development of the Huns. This has had an impact that can not be ignored in the localization of the Huns nation and the eventual integration with the farming civilized society. The ethnicization of minorities represented by the Huns and the great integration of various nationalities promoted the construction of an ancient harmonious frontier in China.
