Who knows the foreigners who settled in China in ancient times?

As we all know, the ancestors of the Chinese nation, starting from the Yellow Emperor (Xuanyuan) and Yan Di (Shennong), were founded in the Yellow River Basin and the Yangtze River Basin. Ethnically, they all belong to the yellow race of Mongolian race. Later, the scope gradually expanded, and the surrounding ethnic minorities continued to join, so it became Naman, the north centered on the Huaxia nationality (later Han nationality). , Dongyi, Xirong and other ethnic minorities, these still belong to the yellow race. Only in a relatively recent period, due to the changes in the border areas of the country and the migration of the population, naturally some exotic species (different from the yellow race) have been incorporated into the Chinese nation as ethnic minorities.

However, in ancient times before this period, were there any non-yellow people in China? The answer is yes, as early as 3000 years ago in the Yin and Shang Dynasties. Judging from the unearthed cultural relics, the jade carving heads unearthed in Yin Ruins lack the characteristics of oriental races; More than 300 human skulls were unearthed in the same place and identified by Chinese and foreign ethnologists. It is confirmed that there are classical Mongolians who belong to the yellow race, blacks who belong to the black race, and a few Caucasians who belong to the white race and similar Eskimo race, and so on. In other words, the races in the Yin and Shang Dynasties were mainly Mongolian races, and there were also different races in North Asia, East Asia and South Asia.

Coincidentally, more than 100 white bodies were also unearthed in the Tianshan Mountains and Taklimakan Desert in the northwest border of China. According to carbon measurement, they lived between 2000 BC and 300 BC. These bodies are men and women, old and young, with European characteristics. After scientific testing, foreign human geneticists believe that they first migrated from northern Europe and settled down more than 4000 years ago.

In addition, in 53 BC, ancient Rome fought the Persians in the rest country. After the defeat, crassus's son led the remnants to the northern Xiongnu, and was later incorporated into the Han army in the battle, and built a "jackal" in the western frontier. The city let them settle down; There are still their descendants nearby.

Around the 7th century in the Tang Dynasty, some blacks in China settled in China. These black people came from East Africa and Nanyang Islands and were sold to China as slaves by northerners. Among these black people, most men are slaves of rich families. Women are more prostitutes and concubines. Most of them are called Kunlun slaves, monk slaves, ghost slaves and black pages. And many of them have different skills, for example, Maha is good at taking swords from water, Moeller flies over the eaves and walks over the wall, and Kangkun plays the piano. In addition, Chang 'an (now Xi), the capital of the Tang Dynasty, also had a large number of Arabs and Iranians who settled and did business in China and built Islamic temples.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, another Jew went north through India, entered the Central Plains along the former Silk Road, settled in Tokyo (now Kaifeng) and established a synagogue. By the Ming and Qing dynasties, some of them had seriously studied Confucianism, and there were no fewer than 20 successful candidates and scholars, and the number of scholars was countless. There are also many officials, such as Josiah Li Yingyuan, governor of Taiyuan in the Ming Dynasty, Abraham Zhao, minister of punishments, and Abraham Zhao Guangyu, governor of Yunnan in the Qing Dynasty. In addition, Dr. Zhao, Dr. Moses, was a famous doctor in the Ming Dynasty, and He Shi, a businessman, was the owner of the famous border silk village in the Qing Dynasty. In addition to Kaifeng, there are Jews scattered in Gansu, Ningxia and Jiangsu. After their intermarriage with the Han and Hui nationalities, although they lost their original Hebrew language and writing, they still retained many characteristics of the Jewish nation.
