What is the unique headscarf and old bowl culture in the Central Plains?

1. The headscarf in the Central Plains is a folk culture: the biggest possibility is the variation of hoes. The earliest hoe was a towel, which was wrapped around your head and tied in a knot before your forehead. It was at least after the Tang Dynasty that hoes were shaped with bamboo frames. This kind of hoe can be traced back to towels in Qin and Han dynasties and pre-Qin dynasties. With a large number of northern Han immigrants moving south, this custom was also brought to the south. In Chou Ying's anti-Japanese map, southern soldiers in Zhejiang don't wear helmets, but wrap their heads with red scarves, which should also be a manifestation of southerners wrapping towels. In addition, there are environmental considerations. The south and other places are forested and humid, and the water vapor evaporates in the morning. In ancient times, Han people put their hair in a bun, which caused a lot of inconvenience when it was wet. In addition, headscarves can absorb sweat at work. Moreover, many ethnic minorities in the south wear scarves, and there are also some customs that influence each other. As for some southerners, their own legend is that after shaving their hair and changing their clothes, when they are ashamed to meet their ancestors, they wrap their heads with towels, or they call it mourning for Emperor Zong Yi. On the one hand, it can also prove that the southern Han nationality had the custom of wrapping towels at the latest in the Ming Dynasty.

2. Old tableware is a culture of existence and realm: The evolution of these tableware of the ancients can be clearly felt, and China people regard food culture as an existing culture and a realm culture. Our ancient diet pays attention to the unity of heaven and man, belief and cultural inheritance. So people's diet at that time had elegant characteristics and styles.
