The Origin of Stilt Walking

Regarding the origin of stilts, most scholars believe that it is related to the totem worship of primitive clans and the fishing life of coastal fishermen. According to research by historians, during the Yao and Shun eras, the Danzhu clan, whose totem was the crane, would dance on stilts like cranes during sacrificial ceremonies. (See Sun Zuoyun's "Talking about Danzhu"); Archaeologists believe that there were characters in ancient oracle bone inscriptions that resembled the image of dancing on stilts. (Fang Qidong, "Dances of the Shang Dynasty in Oracle Bones") The two can confirm each other.

There is a record about "Changgu Kingdom" in the ancient document "Classic of Mountains and Seas". According to the ancients' annotations, it can be known that "Changgu Kingdom" is related to stilt walking. From the annotation "the long-legged man often carries the long-armed man into the sea to fish", it is not difficult for us to imagine the image of people fishing in the shallow sea with long wooden stilts tied to their feet and primitive fishing tools made of long wood in their hands. What is even more interesting is that today, the Jing fishermen living in the coastal areas of Fangcheng, Guangxi, still have the custom of standing on long wooden stilts to cast nets in the shallow sea to catch fish.

The stilts used by people today are mostly made of wood, and the performances can be divided into double stilts and single stilts. Double stilts are usually tied to the calves to facilitate display of skills; single stilts are performed by holding the top of the wooden stilts with both hands, which makes it easy to get up and down, and is dynamic and interesting. The performance is divided into "civil stilts" and "martial stilts". The civil stilts focus on imitation and twisting, while the martial stilts emphasize personal skills and unique moves. Stilts in different places have formed distinct regional style and national color.
