The earliest humans in Guangdong: In 1958, the skull fossil of the Maba Man was accidentally discovered in the crevices of the Shizishan limestone cave in Maba Town, Qujiang County, Shaoguan City, Guangdong Province.
The Maba Man is the earliest ancient human discovered so far in Guangdong.

Three major ethnic groups: Han residents in Guangdong can be mainly divided into three major ethnic groups: Guangfu, Hakka and Chaoshan based on language and regional differences.
Cantonese people mainly live in the Pearl River Delta and the Xijiang River Basin, and use Cantonese as the standard dialect; Chaoshan people mainly live in the eastern part of Guangdong, and use Chaoshan dialect as the standard dialect; Hakka people live in the northeastern region of Guangdong, and use Hakka as the standard dialect
.
The formation of the three major ethnic groups is the result of the long-term integration of the Han people in the Central Plains and the indigenous people in Lingnan.
Large-scale integration began during the Qin Dynasty's expedition to Lingnan, and after three immigration upsurges during the Jin Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, and the late Ming Dynasty, three major ethnic groups with their own characteristics in life customs and cultural awareness were gradually formed.
Liede Dragon Boat: This dragon boat was collected from Liede Village, Guangzhou. Because of its large size, it had been suspended into the fourth-floor exhibition hall before the new Guangdong Provincial Museum was built. It was the first piece to "occupy" the new Guangdong Provincial Museum.

The Liede dragon boat is 42 meters long, 1.18 meters wide at its widest point, and weighs about 4 tons. Its hull is painted with images of lychees, star fruits and other Lingnan fruits, and is also called the "Liede flower dragon".
The dragon boat was built in the 1980s. In 2004, it participated in the Guangzhou International Dragon Boat Invitational and won first place in the traditional dragon event.
Chaoshan Gongfu Tea: Chaoshan Gongfu Tea is unique in the forest of Chinese tea art. It is famous for its fine utensils, exquisite brewing, and fragrant tea. It has entered the daily life of Chaoshan people with the cultural connotation of "harmony, love, essence, cleanliness, and thinking".
