Where did the ancient Dongyi people come from? Which province are their descendants from today?

Dongyi is the name of a local person. Mainly people from Shandong Peninsula and Huaihe River Basin.

After the establishment of the Central Plains regime, it has been suppressed.

A large number of slaves. Forced to move. To the east is the sea. It is very cold in the north. On the west are businessmen. We can only go south. The other man was driven to the depths of the mountain in the west. It is said that Miao and Yi are the remnants of Dongyi.

Ziyi's pronunciation is the same as that of her mother in Minnan-speaking areas.

Menstruation is also an important support of matriarchal society.

I think the original intention of Dongyi is that the women here are special. It is widely regarded as the object of marriage and robbery.

In ancient times, women needed more products and resources to feed. Only tribes in coastal areas are the best places for women to gather.

Now Dongyi is just an ancient name in history.

After years of war, the Central Plains has a mixed population and mixed races. It is difficult to have a pure tribe.

However, in western Shandong, the unique language expression of Dongyi is still preserved.

Chaoshan area still retains some traditional cultures of Dongyi.

Other ethnic minorities.

But more rigorous research is needed.

Dongyi people are the main residents living in the northern coastal areas in prehistoric times. They are not one nation, but many nations with similar languages and customs. Due to several transgressions in prehistoric times, that is, the legendary flood, people at that time could only live in relatively submerged highlands, not the coastline they see now. Among them, Huanghuai area is called Huaiyi by later generations; Shandong Peninsula is called Dongyi or Lion; The eastern foot of Taihang Mountain is called Hebei Yi; Those who live in Liaodong and the Korean Peninsula are called Northeast Yi. Dongyi in a broad sense refers to the above parts, and Dongyi in a narrow sense refers to Lion in Jiaodong Peninsula.

As a national group, they appeared in the historical records of China and disappeared in the Han Dynasty. That is to say, by the Han Dynasty, all ethnic groups of Dongyi ethnic group had merged with the Han nationality or local ethnic groups in China. The paternal gene of Dongyi is O2, which is the main gene of Han nationality. The ethnic group called the ancient Qiang people in later generations probably differentiated from the Dongyi people, because the paternal genes were the same. It was a branch of the ancient Qiang people who later developed westward that returned to the Central Plains and met the Dongyi people who stayed in the East and began to develop westward. During this period, there were wars and exchanges, which eventually became the same origin of the Han nationality.

The Yi nationality in Northeast China, which developed in Liaodong and Korean Peninsula, played a key role in the later ethnic groups in this area. In particular, a few O 1b ethnic groups who followed the Dongyi nationality northward shared the same paternal genes as Baiyue and Baibu in the south, and they successively formed filth in Northeast China that was different from the surrounding C Tungusic ethnic groups. Ethnic group, this ethnic group should be the main source of Koreans, and a large part of Japanese O-series genes also come from this. In the books after the Han Dynasty, some peripheral ethnic minorities or foreigners were also called Yi, but they borrowed this word and had nothing to do with prehistoric Dongyi.
