Where are the authentic Hakkas from?

Authentic Hakkas come from Ganzhou, Tingzhou (now Longyan and Sanming), Meizhou, Heyuan, Huizhou, Shaoguan and Shenzhen.

Hakka is the only ethnic group that is not named by region, and it is one of the most widely distributed and far-reaching ethnic groups in the world. Hakka ancestors began in the period of the integration of Lingnan and Baiyue in Qin Zheng. The Han nationality who moved southward gradually in the Song Dynasty formed a Hakka clan on the Sanjiang Plain. Under the impact of Ganjiang, Tingjiang and Meijiang, it developed into the main Hakka settlements such as Ganzhou, Tingzhou (now Longyan and Sanming), Meizhou, Heyuan, Huizhou, Shaoguan and Shenzhen.

The name Hakka comes from the guest-giving system in the Eastern Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties and the guest-giving system in the Tang and Song Dynasties. Both immigrants and naturalized people are merged into Hakkas, who are called Hakkas.

Hakka is not only the appellation of Han nationality, but also a cultural concept. Hakka culture is known as the living fossil of ancient culture in China, and Hakka dialect is the living fossil of ancient Chinese, which can correspond to the pronunciations recorded in ancient rhymes such as Qieyun, Tangyun, Guang Yun and Jiyun, and retain a large number of ancient Chinese words, such as "You, I, He is Er, Wu and its ancient pronunciation" in Hakka pronunciation. Hakka studies is a prominent school in the world today.
