闽北,是上古时期闽越族人主要聚居地之一,它西邻荆楚,北接吴越,很早就已“(南楚)与闽中、越杂俗”(司马迁《史记·货殖列传》)。秦、汉之后,中原人口一次又一次大规模南迁,尤其“自五代离乱,江北士大夫,豪商巨贾多逃难于此,故备五方之俗”(宋·《建安志》)。闽北成了中原文化进入福建的民俗“沉积”地。 Northern Fujian is one of the main settlements of Min-Yue people in ancient times. It borders Jingchu to its west and Wu-Yue to the north. It has long been known as “the more vulgar and vulgar” in South Chu and Minzhong (Sima Qian) ). After the Qin and Han dynasties, the population of the Central Plains moved southwards and again in a large scale. In particular, they “made the five-nation custom” (Song “Jian Anzhi”). Northern Fujian became Central Plains culture into the folk “deposition” of Fujian.
