章節(jié)摘錄

　　1.THE 0RIGlN OF ACUPUNCTURE ANDMOXIBUSTION　　Acupuncture and moxibustion are im-portant inventions of the Chinese nation andoriginated as early as in the clan communeperiod of primitive society.The activitiesof human beings appeared in China aboutL700，000 years ago.It was about 100，000years ago that China entered the clan corn-mune period which 1asted till 4，000 yearsago.In the ancient 1iterature there were manylegends about the origin of acupuncture and moxibustion sqch as Fu Xis creation of thetherapeutic techniques with stone needles，and Huang Dis invention of acupuncture and moxibustion.The above-mentioned Fu Xi and Huang Di in legend actually arethe representatives of the clan commune of primitive society.　　In the classics of two thousand years ago，it was frequently cited that the acu。puncture instruments were made of stone and were named bian stone.For example，in Commentary on the Spring and Autumn An-nals，there is a paragraph in historical recordsfor 550 B.C.saying：H Praise pleasant to hearthat does an ill turn is worse than advice unpleasant to hear that acts like a stone？Fu Qian in the second century explained that“stone“here meant bian stone.Quan Yu-anqi who 1ived around the 5th-6th centuries pointed out：“Bian stone is an ancient appli‘a(chǎn)nce for external treatment and was known by three names：1.needle stone；2.bian stone；3.arrow.headed stone.In fact，they are the same thing.Because there was no iron cast-in2 in ancient times，the needles were made of stone}This is correlated with the fact that the stone instruments were extensively used in the primitive society.Primitive period in China was divided into two stages，the Old Stone Age（from remote antiquity to 10，000years ag01 and the New Stone Age（from10，000-4，000 years ago）.In the Old Stone Agethe ancestors knew how to use stone knivesand scrapers to incise an abscess，drain pusand let blood out for therapeutic purposes.With the accumulation of experiences the in-dications of the treatment by bian stone weregradually increased.In the New Stone Agebecause of the improvement in their tech-nique of stone manufacturing，the ancient people were able to make bian stone as a special tool with more medical usage.In China，a bian stone needle 4.5 cun long was discov-ered in the New Stone Age ruins in Duolun County of Inner Mongolia.At one end，itis oval-shaped with a semicircular edge used for incising boils and abscesses，and at the other end，it is pyramid-shaped with a square base used for bloodletting.Two more bian stones were discovered as funer。ary objects in a late New Stone Age grave in Rizhao County of Shandong Province.They are 8.3 cm and 9.1 cm in length respectively：with three.edged and cone-shaped ends used for bloodletting and regulating qi cir-culation.The discovered relics of bian stone have provided powerful evidence that acu-puncture originated early in the primitive society.　　According to the records of Chapter 12 of Plain Questions：“The treatment with bian stone needle originated in the east coast of China where the inhabitants lived on fishery：and moxibustion originated in the north where the people subsisted on animal husbandry.Because it was cold and windy in the north-em areas，people had to warm themselves by fire.Living in camps and subsisting on milk，they easily suffered from abdominal pain and distension by cold，suitable to be treated by heat.Through long-term accumulation of experiences，moxibustion therapy and hot compression were created.”
