丧葬文化作为中华传统文化中不可缺少的部分,从无到有,在漫长的历史发展过程中,逐渐完善、系统化。原始社会时期,人死后不葬。商周以后,丧葬礼俗逐渐有了等级的要求,等级不同,丧葬习俗的繁简度则不同。随着社会的发展,丧葬习俗的等级性减弱,仪式得到简化,不同地域的丧葬文化也有了自己的特性,从沂蒙老区的丧葬文化中我们可以看到这一点。 Funeral culture, as an indispensable part of Chinese traditional culture, has been gradually perfected and systematized from scratch in the course of long historical development. Primitive society, people are not buried after their death. After the Shang and Zhou dynasties, funeral rituals gradually came to have the same level requirements. Different levels led to different funeral customs. With the development of society, the hierarchy of funeral customs weakened, the ceremony was simplified, and funeral cultures of different regions also had their own characteristics. We can see this from the funeral culture in the old district of Yimeng.
