　　追溯由牛郎织女传说形成七夕节的过程，时间当在战国，地点则在楚国。查经问典，《诗经·小雅·大东》中有“跂彼织女，终日七襄……睆彼牵牛，不以服葙”的诗句，这是有关牛郎织女传说最早的文字记录，是牛郎织女传说的雏形。还有一首与织女有关的《周南·汉广》中所述“汉有游女，不可求思”。据史料记载，诗中的“汉”即指汉水，又指天汉（银河），“游女”是指汉水女神或织女星神。楚人雄距江汉地区，甚重祠祀“汉之游女”。另外，在楚地民间，常将牵牛星与河鼓三星搞混淆了。南北朝时南阳人宗懔的《荆楚岁时记》注文云：“牵牛星，荆州呼为‘河鼓’”。而在南阳汉画像石“牛郎织女星座”中，正是以河鼓为牵牛。居“汉水之北”的南阳，素有“枕伏牛而蹬江汉，襟三山而带群湖”之称。战国时，南阳属楚，楚始都于淅川丹阳，是楚文化的发源地，文化积淀深厚。如此的历史背景和文化底蕴，是形成牛郎织女传说的重要条件之一。
