Abstract

From July 2020 to August 2021, the author entered the Shandan army house farm four times to conduct fieldwork. From the first visit to observation to experience to interview. I conducted investigations around the living inheritance of the intangible cultural heritage Shandan army horse taming skills, and obtained certain insights and my own thoughts. This thesis is based on field notes, field surveys, and interview records written by the author. On the one hand, it provides an overview of the current situation of Shandan army horse taming skills. On the other hand, it also analyzes Shandan army horse taming skills based on the academic framework of cultural anthropology’s great tradition and little tradition.
