The Ewoks are sentient furred bipeds native to the moon of Endor. They are curious individuals that stand about one meter tall. Although extremely skilled in forest survival and the construction of primitive technology like gliders and catapults, the Ewoks have yet to progress past stone-level technology. They are quick learners, however, when exposed to advanced technology with simple mechanical processes and concepts.
伊沃克人是长毛皮的智慧两足动物，在恩多的卫星上土生土长。他们天性好奇，站高约一米。尽管极其精通森林生存技巧和滑翔翼、投掷器等原始科技制品的建造，但伊沃克人仍处于石器时代。然而，面对机械构思和工艺简单的高科技时，他们学得很快。

Most Ewoks live high among the trees of Endor's forests, in villages built between the closely spaced trees. Ewoks venture to the forest floor to hunt, and set traps to catch various prey.
大多数伊沃克人住在恩多森林高高的树上，他们把村子建在紧凑相邻的树之间。伊沃克人打猎时要冒险下到森林地表，设置陷阱来捕捉各种猎物。

For the forest dwellers, the surrounding giant trees play an important cultural role. These hunter-gatherers are a deeply spiritual people. They believe themselves to be descendants of the Great Tree, a sacred tree in the forests.
对这些森林居民来说，周围的巨树在文化中扮演着重要角色。这些狩猎采集者极度迷信。他们相信自己是森林里一棵圣树——“大树”——的子孙。

The tribal structure of the Ewoks has a Council of Elders ruling over them, and the Council is headed by the Chief. A medicine man also lives in the Ewok village, a keeper of mystical lore, and a healer to the injured.
伊沃克人的部落由长老会统治，长老会的首领是酋长。伊沃克人的村落里还有一名巫师，通晓秘术，治愈伤患。

When the Empire began operations on the moon of Endor, they dismissed the primitive species as harmless. Imperial operations were situated around the area near the Ewok village led by Chief Chirpa. Princess Leia Organa, part of a Rebel strike team, befriended the Ewok Wicket W. Warrick, a scout from said village.
帝国在恩多展开军事行动时，没有管这些无害的原始种族。帝国军被部署在由彻帕酋长领导的伊沃克人村落附近。义军突击队成员莱娅·奥加纳公主与这个村的哨兵威基特·W·沃里克成了朋友。

These Ewoks also erroneously worshipped the protocol droid C-3PO, thinking he was their god. Threepio told the Council of Elders the adventures of the Rebel heroes Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and Han Solo. The Ewoks accepted the Rebels into their tribe, and allied themselves to their cause. The Ewoks helped in the ground battle to destroy the Imperial shield generator on the forest floor, and their primitive weapons felled the stormtroopers and the scout walkers of the Empire. This assist paved the way to victory at the Battle of Endor. Later that night, the Ewoks held a huge celebration that could be heard throughout the forest.
这些伊沃克人还误把礼仪机器人C-3PO当成了他们的神，对他顶礼膜拜。3PO向长老会讲述了义军英雄卢克·天行者、莱娅公主和汉·索洛的历险记。伊沃克人把义军接纳进他们的部落，与之结盟。伊沃克人在地面战中协助义军摧毁了森林地表的帝国护盾发生器，用原始武器打倒了帝国冲锋队和侦察步行机。伊沃克人的援助为恩多战役的胜利铺平了道路。当晚，伊沃克人举行了盛大的欢庆会，歌舞声响彻森林。

衍生宇宙



The Ewoks believe the lifetrees of the forest contain the spirits of their elders. For each Ewok birth, a counterpart "soul tree" or birth-tree is planted. The tree and the Ewok are forever spiritually connected. An Ewok chooses a secret "tree name" that only he and his birth-tree share. The Ewoks believe themselves able to communicate with the surrounding nature, whether it is talking to animals, or hearing the call of the trees.
伊沃克人相信森林里的生命树是先灵们的容身之所。每个伊沃克人出生时，都有一棵对应的“灵魂树”或出生树被种下。这棵树与这个伊沃克人在灵魂上永远相连。每个伊沃克人都会秘密选一个“树名”——只有他和他的出生树知道。伊沃克人相信自己能同周围的大自然沟通，不管是与动物交谈，还是倾听树林的召唤。

Ewok spiritualism has a wide pantheon of gods and spirits. The foremost being the Great Tree, a sacred tree from which all life springs. From the Great Tree comes the Great Spirit, an omniscient god which watches over the forest. Other deities include Brother Sky, Father Forest and Mother Land, entities that control the natural elements of the Ewoks' surroundings. It is said that a skilled Ewok magician or shaman can call upon these spirits for favors and miracles. On the other side of the spectrum is the Night Spirit, an evil entity feared by the Ewoks.
伊沃克人的唯心论里有各种各样的神灵。最重要的存在是“大树”——一棵衍生万物的圣树。“大树”生“大灵”——守护森林的博学之神。其祂的神还包括“天兄”、“林父”和“地母”——掌管着伊沃克人生活环境的自然要素。据说，熟练的伊沃克人魔法师或巫师能召唤这些神灵，以求恩赐与神迹。与这一系神灵相对的，是伊沃克人恐惧的恶魔——“夜灵”。

The supernatural plays a big role in everyday Ewok life, from the legends of the Tree of Light said to control the life energy of the Endor forests, to the god-like beings that control Endor's seasons through the mystical Season Scepter.
从掌控恩多森林生命能量的“光芒树”传说，到用神秘“季节杖”掌管恩多季节交替的众神，超自然力量在伊沃克人的日常生活中影响深刻。

Family life is important to the Ewok society. Families often live together for life, with children rarely traveling far from their parents. Ewok courting rituals are as equally primitive as their technology. Unmarried Ewok males spend a contemplative time living alone in the forest, building their own home near the main village trees.
在伊沃克人的社会里，家庭生活十分重要。家庭成员常常相伴一生，子女很少离开父母远行。伊沃克人的求婚仪式与他们的科技水平一样原始。未婚的男性伊沃克人要在森林里独居冥思，在主村树附近建造自己的房子。

Unmarried female Ewoks then leave courting gifts of food, clothing, crafts or weaponry. If the male Ewok chooses to settle down, he then enlarges his home, making room for the new family. Once the home is completed, the male Ewok announces his choice of mate, and the chosen female has the option to refuse the male and the home he has built.
然后，未婚的女性伊沃克人留下食物、衣服、手工或武器等求爱礼物。男性伊沃克人如果决定成家，会扩建房子，为新家增大空间。一旦新家竣工，男性伊沃克人便宣布他选择的伴侣，而被选中的女性有权拒绝男性和他建造的新家。

Young Ewoks are called Woklings, and are afforded few rights. It is at this stage that Ewoks learn the many rituals and legends that will serve as moral guides in their lives. Then, when an adolescent Ewok comes of age, she attends the Festival of the Hoods. This marks the transition from Wokling to Ewok.
年幼的伊沃克人被称为小伊沃克人，只有很少的权利。正是在这个年龄段，伊沃克人要学习种种仪式和传说，作为一生受用的道德观。然后，当伊沃克人少女成年时，她要参加“头巾节”。这是小伊沃克人成为伊沃克人的标志。

After the Battle of Endor, there was a brief war that erupted between the Ewoks and the Lahsbees. This war was orchestrated by the Hiromi, in an attempt to cause dispute and dissension in the ranks of the Alliance. It was the first real war in which the Ewoks were involved in decades. There was a time, long ago, when Ewoks would war among each other.
恩多战役后，伊沃克人和拉斯比人曾爆发短暂冲突。这场战争是由希罗米人阴谋策划的，意在挑拨同盟各阶层的分歧与不和。这是几十年来伊沃克人第一次被卷入真正的战争。伊沃克人互相征战的时代逝去已久。

The Alliance eventually moved off Endor, becoming the New Republic. The Ewoks continued with their lives. The Republic left a semi-permanent trading post and landing platform near one of the Ewok villages.
同盟最终离开恩多，成为新共和国。伊沃克人继续自己的生活。共和国在一个伊沃克人村子附近留下了一个半永久贸易站和着陆平台。

幕后



The Ewoks find their origins in the original Star Wars drafts, when tribes of Wookiees united to repel the technologically superior Imperials from their forest world. As Star Wars developed, writer George Lucas pared down the number of Wookiees to one, Chewbacca, and established him as a sophisticated being able to operate advanced machinery. When he was able to realize a massive ground battle of primitives versus an advanced foe, Lucas transformed the Wookiees into Ewoks.
伊沃克人源自《星球大战》原始手稿，当时，伍基人部落团结一致，把科技占优的帝国赶出了他们的森林世界。随着《星球大战》故事的发展，编剧乔治·卢卡斯把伍基人的数量削减到只剩丘巴卡一人，把他塑造成一个聪明干练、能操纵先进机械的人。当卢卡斯可以实现原始人对阵先进敌人的大规模地面战时，他把伍基人换成了伊沃克人。

Initially, the Endor moon was going to be shown as having two indigenous species -- the Ewoks and the Yuzzums. Although ILM's creature department produced a single Yuzzum, the creature design proved too costly to replicate in large numbers. That sole Yuzzum ended up as a rifle-toting background character in Jabba's palace.
按最初的计划，恩多卫星上有两个土生种族——伊沃克人和亚扎姆人。虽然工业光魔生物部门制作了一个亚扎姆人，但这个生物设定成本太高，无法批量制作。那个亚扎姆人最后被安排为贾巴宫殿中一个持枪的背景角色。

The Ewok costumes were five-piece affairs with sculpted heads. Return of the Jedi's Assistant Production Manager Patricia Carr was responsible for most of the Ewok casting in London. "We only got four or five applications from the Job Center. Then some reporter from the Sun newspaper put the story on page 3 under the picture of the nude, and suddenly we had phone calls from all over the country. About 120 people applied, and we soon had all the people we needed under 4 feet 2 inches tall. Up until then we had thought that Kenny Baker -- R2-D2 -- was the shortest man in Britain. Later on we began asking for even smaller performers so that the Ewok children would look more natural. At that point we had to tell those people more than 4 feet 6 inches tall that they were now too tall. They said on the phones that they had never been told they were too tall in all their lives!"
伊沃克人道具服由五部分组成，外加雕刻的头套。《绝地归来》助理制片经理帕特里夏·卡尔在伦敦负责大部分伊沃克人的选角工作。“我们从就业中心只收到四、五份申请。然后《太阳报》记者把这个消息刊登在第3版裸体女郎照片下面，我们立即接到来自全国各地的电话。约120人提出申请，我们很快就找到了我们需要的4英尺2英寸以下的所有人选。在那之前，我们一直以为R2-D2的扮演者肯尼·贝克是全英国最矮的人。后来我们开始招募更矮的演员，这样伊沃克人小孩就看起来更自然。当时我们不得不告诉那些身高超过4英尺6英寸的人他们已经太高了。他们在电话里说，他们这辈子还从没听人说过自己太高了！”

Following the success of Return of the Jedi, the Ewoks would return in two made-for-television movies: Caravan of Courage: The Ewok Adventure and Ewoks: The Battle for Endor. The Ewoks would also star in two seasons' worth of half-hour animated adventures, and their own comic series from Marvel Comics' Star imprint.
《绝地归来》成功后，伊沃克人又出现在两部供电视放映的电影中：《勇敢的马队：伊沃克人历险记》和《伊沃克人：为恩多而战》。伊沃克人还出演了两季每集半小时的动画片，以及他们自己的漫画系列——属于漫威漫画的“星版”。
