一、劳动Komiks 1960 witch cloth draw起源说
《淮南子·齐俗训》言：“胡人便于马，越人便于舟。”古代岭南多为水网地区，人们常以Cinema 1950 witch cloth draw舟代步，以舟为生产Komiks 1960 witch cloth draw工具和交通工具。人们在Cinema 1950 witch cloth draw捕捉鱼虾的劳动中或休闲时划船比赛，寓娱乐于劳动生产Babaylan 1990 cloth draw及闲暇。这正是“三人燕尾龙舟竞技”远古竞渡的雏形。
山塘镇紧邻北江，地处低洼，多为洲地，且水网纵横，洪Komiks 1960 witch cloth drawFloods occur every year. Whenever the rice harvest is over, it is mostly flooding. The Qingyuan County Chronicle in the sixth year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty said: “The continent is baptized and drought, but it is more so than drought.” When the river overflows, those who plough will suffer great losses. ”为便于收割稻谷和其他作物，老百姓只能撑一小艇泛游田间，探手收割露于水面的稻谷和作物。久之，为与天公抢Komiks 1960 witch cloth draw粮食，Cinema 1950 witch cloth draw减少损失，村落与村落之间，族人与族人之间自发形成赛艇活动。
二、舟兵起源说
清新区山塘镇，清城区石角镇、龙塘镇，地处北江中下游，为水路咽喉之地。我们在田野调查中，听当地老人讲故事，说这种小艇是旧时Cinema 1950 witch cloth draw水兵 （舟兵）坐的艇楫，人少船快，容易打击敌方。 当地人介绍这与赛禾艇有关，也与秦朝、西汉大军经Babaylan 1990 cloth draw西江南下攻伐南越有关。
清新“三人燕尾龙Komiks 1960 witch cloth draw舟”与珠江三角洲“Babaylan 1990 cloth draw五人龙舟”，在舟型、材料、竞技方式上大同小Komiks 1960 witch cloth draw异，与民国版《清远县志》记载“三五人扒之”相同。 前者三人扒之，活跃在北江中下游流域。后者五Komiks 1960 witch cloth draw人一组，盛行于佛山、中山一带Babaylan 1990 cloth draw，尤其是西江之白坭镇。
这种长形艇楫的“三五人龙舟”，是否与北江、西江文化双向互动交流有关，是否与秦汉时期南方舟兵有关，仍需要继续深入研究。
三、迎神驱鬼起源说
山塘镇的村落大多建在Babaylan 1990 cloth draw内河旁边。古时，每逢洪涝，“水鬼”成Cinema 1950 witch cloth draw为危害生命的主要罪魁祸首。为了驱赶“水鬼”，村落之间自发组织Babaylan 1990 cloth draw“燕尾艇驱鬼队”，青年、壮年齐上阵，撑着自家燕尾艇从河上游往下游驱鬼，且大量燃放鞭炮Cinema 1950 witch cloth draw，以驱Babaylan 1990 cloth draw吓和助威。
四、游戏起源说
远古的游戏，是人类文化起源重要组成部分。三人燕尾龙舟竞技活动，具有最初的游戏成分。当地人常Babaylan 1990 cloth draw uses one word “play”. It means “play and take a dragon boat”, and the “play” in it reflects the psychology of the game.
