摘　　要：华夏文明发生过程的特性,是在普世性的石器时代演变到青铜时代的一般程序之外,还有个过渡性的“玉器时代”。这样的特殊性给华夏的创世神话带来一种独特的焦点观念:先于金属而出现的玉,奠定这个文化传统的至高价值。传说的人文初祖黄帝的时代,即相当于玉器时代。所遗留下的两个神话母题:一是黄帝亲自播种玉石,给世界创造出物质的至宝;二是黄帝时代“以玉为兵”。文章依照四重证据法提示的显圣物思路,对这两个过去真假虚实难辨的母题做出新的考古实证研究,从而给莫衷一是的黄帝神话研究带来新方法范式的启迪。In addition to the universal procedure from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age, there is also the transitional“Jade Age”. This is a procedural characteristic of the Chinese civilization. Such a particularity brings a unique focus to the creation myth of China: the jade that appeared before metal lays the highest value of this cultural tradition. The age of the legendary humanistic ancestor Huangdi which is equivalent to the jade age handed down two mythical motifs: First, the Yellow Emperor personally planted jade, creating material treasures for the world;second, the jade was taken as soldiers in the Yellow Emperor era. According to the hierophany thought suggested by the quadruple evidence method, this article makes a new archaeological empirical study on the two motifs that are difficult to be distinguished between the true and the false, and thus brings the enlightenment to the new method paradigm in studying the controversial issue of the Yellow Emperor myth.
