The origin of Yue people?

Vietnamese refers to the ethnic group with a majority of Vietnamese population in Indochina Peninsula of Asia. Also known as Vietnamese, Beijingers and Annan people. Accounting for the majority of Vietnam's domestic population. The Vietnamese are divided into internal Vietnamese and external Vietnamese. Inner Vietnam is integrated into the Chinese nation, while outer Vietnam is an overseas Vietnamese. In addition, some are distributed in Cambodia, Thailand, Laos and other countries. It belongs to the South Asian type of Mongolian race. The Yue people in ancient poetry refer to Zhejiang people, especially Shaoxing people.

According to relevant documents, as early as the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, there was an ancient people named Yue (ancient China people generally called barbarians in the southeast as Yue and barbarians in the north as Hu), who lived in the southeast and south of China today. From the end of the Spring and Autumn Period to the beginning of the Warring States Period, the Yue nationality once established a powerful Yue state in the present-day Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, which spread for 8 generations and lasted for 160 years. It formed an alliance with the Central Plains countries at that time and dominated the Jianghuai area, so it was called "overlord". Some scholars believe that the Yue people are descendants of Yu Xia according to the description of "Gou Jian's family, the King of Yue" in Historical Records. However, Song Shuhua, a China scholar who studies Baiyue nationality, thinks: "Gou Jian's grandfather and her husband have nothing to do with Xia Shaokang's illegitimate child, and their lineage is unclear; Xia Shaokang has been doing business in Zhou for more than 60 generations, and the lineage difference between them is nearly 65,438+0,000 years. It is hard to believe that Gou Jian, the King of Yue, is a descendant of Xia Shaokang. " . In addition, Song Shuhua also thinks that Xia culture and Yue culture are completely different, because "Indo-pottery culture has never been found in Xia people's active areas, and Erlitou culture has never been found in Indo-pottery popular areas".
