Where did the ancestors of Maoming people come from?

Maoming is a populated area of Guangfu people, whose ancestors were immigrants from the Central Plains. History of Guangfu people's development: Guangdong, which experienced the Qin Dynasty, Nanyue State and the wild land, gradually moved towards civilization. According to the biography of Nan Man in the later Han Dynasty, the Central Plains people and Baiyue people "live together, but they are slightly literate and gradually polite, so they are taught to plow the fields, make them crown their shoes, set up matchmakers at the beginning, get married at the beginning, set up schools and guide them by courtesy." The political and economic center of Lingnan in Han Dynasty was in Xijiang River, from Fengkai County in Zhaoqing to Wuzhou in Guangxi, which was also the earliest birthplace of Guangfu culture.

At that time, northerners wanted to immigrate to Guangdong. There are two routes: one is to cross the south of the Yangtze River and the Xiangjiang River, then go west to enter the Lijiang River through Lingqu, and finally go south to enter Guangdong through Xijiang River; The second is to go south along Xiangjiang River to Nanling, cross Qitianling in Chenzhou, Hunan Province, enter Shaoguan, and then go south along Beijiang River to enter the Pearl River Delta. Because of traffic reasons, the population of Guangdong at that time was concentrated in Gaoyao and Luoding areas in western Guangdong and Lianzhou and Yangshan areas in northern Guangdong. An Shi Rebellion broke out in the middle of Tang Dynasty, and Huang Chao Rebellion appeared in the end of Tang Dynasty, which caused a large number of Central Plains people to move south to escape the war. Among them, most of the Central Plains immigrants who entered Guangdong lived in Nanxiong Zhuji Lane in northern Guangdong, and Zhuji Lane became the place where most Guangfu people sought their roots.
