Gannan Wai Houses Architectural Causes:

Gannan Wai Houses arose in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, and today there are still more than 500 of them remaining, mainly located in Longnan, Dingnan, Quannan, as well as Xinfeng, Anyuan, and Xunwu.

Gannan, the history of "the south of the Paiyue, the north of China, according to the Five Ridges of the key meeting, the Gan, Fujian, Guangdong and Hunan of the key", so the Qin and Han Dynasty has built a county, to the end of the Han Dynasty has been the government level of administrative institutions. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains were in turmoil, and Gannan became an ideal shelter for those who avoided the turmoil because of its sparsely populated and relatively remote and quiet area. A large number of refugees from the Central Plains crowded into Gannan, and the population increased tenfold in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the immigrants were far more than the original indigenous inhabitants, which greatly changed the composition of the inhabitants at that time and the traditional structure of their culture, and so a new special ethnic group - the Hakka - was slowly birthed in this specific historical and geographic environment. In this specific historical and geographic environment, a new special ethnic group, the Hakka, was slowly nurtured. At the same time and since then, the Hakka ancestors or Hakka people who moved into Gannan from the Central Plains have continued to migrate to western Fujian and eastern Guangdong. Gannan is much earlier than western Fujian and eastern Guangdong, which are also Hakka settlements, in the establishment of counties and prefectures, and there was Nanshu County (in present-day Nankang or Dayu County) in the Qin Dynasty. According to "Huainanzi", Emperor Qin Shi Huang, in order to unify the southern border of the motherland, once ordered the general Tu Ju to lead an army of 500,000 people to march into Baiyue in five ways, and after the success, one of them left "an army to guard the border of Nanshu". This is the earliest record in history of the Han Chinese entering Gannan. This is the origin and predecessor of the formation of Hakka, and in the subsequent historical evolution, the Hakka people constitute a unique group of Gannan residents, and the Gannan roundhouses constitute a strange humanistic landscape of Hakka dwellings. According to Wan Younan's research, the house of enclosure, as its name suggests, is a house enclosed. Its outer wall is not only the load-bearing outer wall of the house, but also the defense wall of the whole house. Its gate has many titles such as "Pan'an Wei" and "Longguang Wei".

Gannan roundhouse architectural development:

According to Wan Younan's "Study of Gannan Roundhouses", the development of Gannan roundhouses can be roughly divided into three phases, i.e., the founding period, the formative period, and the extreme period.

Founding Period

The founding period is about the middle and late Ming Dynasty. This period was the free founding period of Hakka roundhouses, which were in various forms and small in number, accounting for about 10% of the total number of roundhouses. This period of the house did not go through the prior planning, often built with the shape of the polygon irregular type. Such as Longnan Liren Liyuan Wei, Yangcun Wu Shi Wei, Guanxi Chang Wei and Wudang Tianxin Wei.

Formative period

The mature period of the house is about the early and middle of the Qing Dynasty (Qing Shunzhi to Daoguang years). The number of houses in this period is about 30%. The plan of the houses tended to be square, and the rounded or polygonal houses gradually disappeared. The fa?ade of the roundhouse is mostly two-story, and the four-corner turret is one story higher, but it has not yet become a fixed style. Such as Longnan's Yangcun Yanyi roundhouse, Guanxi new roundhouse, Taojiang Longguang roundhouse and Anyuan's Shanqing roundhouse is the representative of this period.

Extreme period

The end of the Qing Dynasty to the middle of the Republic of China is the extreme period of the construction of houses. During this period, due to the decline of the Qing government and the loss of power and humiliation of the country, resulting in the domestic class conflicts and ethnic conflicts are becoming increasingly acute, the number of enclosure construction has increased dramatically, and the defense function is stronger and more perfect, during this period of time, the construction of enclosures accounted for more than 60% of the total number of enclosures in Gannan. Such as built in the Qing dynasty Xianfeng years of Yang village east water enclosure, patio all with barbed wire cover, even if the outsiders on the roof can not enter the enclosure; there are built in the Qing dynasty Guangxu years of the Liren Shaba enclosure, also built in the enclosure of the basement.

Entering the Republic of China after the development of transportation so that the government's rule strengthened, the social situation improved, the enclosure will be categorically less built.
