Rui 'an dialect originated from ancient Chinese. Although there are few written materials handed down from ancient times, we can find the same materials as today's Rui 'an dialect from ancient China documents such as Tang poetry and Song poetry. We use an inappropriate term here, which is called "Ryan vocabulary".
