 龙母信仰与冼夫人信仰之比较
 摘要
 龙母和冼夫人是岭南地区先后出现的两位影响后世的女神。龙母生于周秦时代，主要活动于西江中下游，是生于斯逝于斯的女子。而冼夫人历经梁、陈、隋三朝，为平定叛乱，足迹几乎踏遍岭南。两者同为女性，但龙母是普通的下层民众，而冼夫人却位居统治阶层。因此，其信仰的形成也不同，前者是自下而上，后者是自上而下。作为水神，龙母信仰盛行于西江流域，而冼夫人则由地方神上升到万能神，受到粤西地区和海南地区人们的崇拜。为了维护统一和稳定地方社会，历代朝廷不断敕封，龙母由“夫人”而“圣妃”而“娘娘”，直至“水府元君”，地位逐渐上升。冼夫人却始终是“夫人”。笔者试从二者生平事迹、信仰形成和发展过程中的异同点出发，探讨龙母信仰及冼夫人信仰各个方面的历史。
