A legendary emperor from ancient China. One of the Three Emperors. It is said that he invented cooking with fire. A fire starter is a tool for making fire. When people were suffering from illnesses from eating raw animals and plants, the Fire Starter taught them how to make fire by rubbing wood and cook food. The prototype of the Fire Starter myth is old, but it probably became the legend of the Three Emperors after the Warring States period.

中国古代の伝説上の皇帝。三皇の一人。火食することを発明したという。燧とは火をとる道具である。人々が動植物をなまのまま食して病気に悩まされていたとき、燧人が木をこすって火をとり、食物を料理することを教えたという。燧人神話の原型は古いが、三皇伝説となったのは戦国時代以後であろう。 [宇都木章] [参照項目] |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
