| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺南大學 === 體育學系教學碩士班 === 98 === Ever since Mr. Chen Ping-hui came to Taiwan to open up the land and formed villages in
1664 (Yung-Li year 18 of Ming Dynasty), and in order to prevent the village and the
village people at Nanshih area from being attacked due to its geographic and groups
factors, there were customs of practicing martial customs and necessity of forming
military forces. The private military forces and self-defense organization have lasted more
than two hundred years. Meanwhile, along with the introduction of Sung-Chiang Parade
into Taiwan of the Ming and Ching Dynasties, which after Hsiao-Lung Religious Service
of Chiali Town started in the middle of Ching dynasty, it has been proved that the
Sung-Chiang Parade of Chiu Lung Temple has been existed more than a century.
During the development of the Sung-Chiang Parade of Chiu Lung Temple, after
Hsiao-Lung Religious Service stopped, the Sung-Chiang Parade was then joined to
Hsikang Religious Service, besides, due to the upheaval political circumstances (Pacific
War, 228 Incident), the operation has been interrupted twice. There were several reasons,
such as historical background, geographic, religious and blood tie, etc., made such
obstinate group, having been through ups and downs many times, of Sung-Chiang Parade
survive and the twice interruptions and still thrive.
Having been experienced and cultivated by the historical, geographic, religious and blood
tie, etc, factors, also, having been exposed and influenced by the ancestors, it has been
turned into a carrier of the related history and culture with complete cultural structure. It
is led by the core spiritual thoughts to form the organization, regulation and system, also,
the inner most spiritual thought and the organization and regulation are thus displayed
from the exposed material technique level at the outmost layer. Different levels and

items falling down from the sky cannot be connected or explained. Therefore, the
cultural structure of the Sung-Chiang Parade of Chiu Lung Temple has been a well
organized group regarding the system of Sung-Chiang Parade. This too is a significant
finding on this research, which may also make up the missing piece of the related study
