Abstract:
Traditional villages represent the crystallization of ecological wisdom formed through longterm human-nature interaction, with their spatial construction embodying a unique logic of adapting to natural environments. Taking Qiakerikuyi Village in Yengisar County, Kashgar, Xinjiang as the case study, this paper employs schema theory and integrates field surveys, interviews, and literature review to analyze the village's current state. It examines the adaptive characteristics of traditional village construction in arid regions through three dimensions: lexicon, syntax, and context. The village has developed distinctive construction wisdom in responding to the natural environment, spatial layout, and construction processes. In terms of environmental adaptation, this manifests in climate-responsive construction and water resource utilization patterns. Regarding spatial layout, the study analyzes the suitability of traditional village spatial arrangements from macro to micro perspectives. At the construction process level, it examines the influences of socioeconomic factors and cultural craftsmanship inheritance. By preserving the spatial patterns and character of traditional villages, this research provides a theoretical reference for the conservation and development of traditional villages in this region.
