Anhui Province was set up in the sixth year of Kangxi Reign of (1667). “Anhui”, the name of the province, comes from the combination of the first character of two prefectures' names at that time: and Huizhou. Because there was a mountain called “ Mountain” and an ancient nation named “Wan” in in Anhui (722 BC–481 BC), “Anhui” is also called “Wan” for short. The Anhui region was one of the earliest areas in the basin to be settled by Sinitic peoples. Many of the current linguistic and cultural traits of the region were shaped during the Nan (Southern) Song period (1127–1279), particularly the characteristic conservatism of language and art forms. A number of separate regional subcultures continue to exist, including the Huizhou culture from the region around Shexian, renowned for its commercial and clan traditions.
