 note = {This paper discusses how the nomadic people determine “home”, using the case of the “lianjiachuan yumin （連家船漁民）”. They are people who used to live on boats in Southern Fujian, China. Since the acquisition of land for settlement in the 1960s, they left a water-dependent lifestyle and shifted to one that was mostly dependent on land. In order to identify how current lianjiachuan yumin define “home”, this paper focuses on the following three points. First, this paper will deal with the stories called “Contributions and Sacrifices to the Birth of Communist Regime” and “Victims of a Huge Typhoon”. These stories emphasize the legitimacy of the state order which suddenly allowed people to take land even if it was possessed by someone else. Second, this paper will examine beliefs which take on a folk approach that trusts in the power of God―allowing a person to become the owner of land which was borrowed from someone else. Thirdly and finally, this paper will focus on the practice of confirming the existence of home within the context of space. The third shows that the ancestors of the lianjiachuan yumin have spread by communicating and traveling outside of the fishing villages and the state, creating multiple-spaces outside their previously defined boundaries.},
