A Textual Study of the Couplets in the Hall of a Hakha Building in Kengzi,Shenzhen

坑梓客家黄氏围堡的祖传堂联,崇宗敬祖,追本溯源,往往寥寥数语,便高度概括了一部宗族发展史,极具文化象征意义。这些传统堂联传递出的人文信息,成为家族不可或缺的精神财富,也成为深圳珍贵的地方人文史料。

The ancestral couplets in the hall of Huang′s building show a high respect for ancestors and delineate a clan′s history in a few words. Conveying deep cultural symbolism, the messages have become an indispensible spiritual wealth to the clan concerned. They are also a valuable source of Shenzhen′s local history.
