==Etymology==
Opinions on the origin of the term ''Beksi'' vary. According to silat researcher G.J. Nawi, the term evolved from the phrase ''Bhe Si'', which means '[[horse stance]]' in [[Hokkien]].<ref name=":0" />
==History==
Beksi Silat was originally created by Lie Tjeng Hok, a [[Peranakan|peranakan Chinese]] farmer who created a unique mixed martial art that combined elements from his family's martial arts and Betawinese martial arts.<ref name=":0" /> His Betawinese martial arts masters are recorded as Ki Jidan and Ki Miah (also spelled Ki Maimah).<ref name=":0" />
Lie Tjeng Hok taught the martial arts to his students, the Peranakan Chinese, and the coastal Betawinese around his home in Kampung Dadap, Kosambi, Tangerang. One of his most talented Betawinese students was Ki Muharli (or Marhali).<ref name=":0" /> Ki Muharli then had a Peranakan-Betawinese disciple named H. Gozali (or Godjalih) bin H. Gatong, who then taught his knowledge to his students in Petukangan, South Jakarta<ref name=":3" /> and in Batujaya, Batuceper, Tangerang.<ref name=":0" /> The main disciples of H. Gozali included Kong H. Hasbullah bin Misin,<ref name=":1">{{Cite web|url=https://sportourism.id/sport/silat-beksi-olahraga-beladiri-betawi-bernuansa-islami|title=Silat Beksi, Olahraga Beladiri Betawi Bernuansa Islami|website=Sportourism.id|language=id|access-date=2017-10-24}}{{Dead link|date=May 2021 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> Kong M.
