碩士 / 國立臺北教育大學 / 台灣文化研究所 / 106 / In the southwest coast of Taiwan, there live the greatest number of people who believe in Wang Yeh. Tainan is the predominant region and the most symbolic ritual is the King Boat Ceremony. This costly ceremony usually requires a great amount of manpower and fund. However, this situation is changing due to the population outflow from rural areas and the structural variation in economy.
This thesis focuses on the research of the King Boat Ceremony held by Dong-long Temple in Sanliaowan Bay Village. It analyzes the development of Dong-long Temple and the evolution of the King Boat Ceremony according to the relations of the faith of Wang Yeh and the King Boat Ceremony. In addition, it explores the ceremony from different aspects including planning, contents and changing, also makes comparisons between past and today.
Sanliaowan is a rustic village where most people are engaged in agriculture and a few in aquaculture. Villagers are devout believers of Wang Yeh and therefore their life is tied up with the faith and the activities of Dong-long Temple. This explains why the village is not close to the sea but has the tradition of King Boat Ceremony. Based on the research of the King Boat Ceremony, this thesis explains the importance of the faith of Wang Yeh and the role of Dong-long Temple to local people. It also explores the problems of social structural change and population outflow happened in Sanliaowan and how these factors influence today’s King Boat Ceremony. It is expected that this research not only preserves the history of King Boat Ceremony culture but also benefits the development of Sanliaowan .
