泉州历史悠久,早在新石器时代,已有人类在此劳动生息,简单原始的木竹结构的高台巢居是先民们的居住形式。西周时代(前770以前)属八闽地,先秦以来,汉族人民逐步南移,到此定居垦荒。在漫长的岁月中泉州得到不断的开发,特别是西晋永嘉(311),中原板荡,大批晋人南迁避乱,部分人闽,带来了先进的生产工具、生产技术和风俗文化,也带来了中原的传统民居建筑形式和营造技术,对泉州的土族民居建筑形式产生重要的影响。 Quanzhou has a long history. As early as in the Neolithic Age, humans have lived and worked here. The simple and primitive wooden-and-bamboo structure of high-altitude nests is the form of residence of the ancestors. The period of the Western Zhou Dynasty (before 770) belonged to the Baguadi area. Since the pre-Qin period, the Han people gradually moved southward, and settled in this area. During the long years, Quanzhou has been continuously developed, especially in Yongjia (311) in the Western Jin Dynasty. The Central Plains have been plagued with a lot of people and moved south to avoid chaos. Some people have been paralysed, bringing with them advanced production tools, production techniques and customs and culture. Bringing the traditional architecture and building techniques of traditional dwellings in Central China, it has an important influence on the architectural style of the Tu people in Quanzhou.
