Did the ancient Chinese have a Caucasian ancestry

?

With some of the surprising excavations in China, questions have been raised on the foreign presence in the country in the times gone by. One of the oldest mummies in China is of the Caucasian origin. The time when the foreigners visited the country during the trade on the Silk Route is now known to be incorrect; the presence of mummies of non Chinese origin has revealed that there was marked foreign presence in the country hundreds of years prior to the timelines set by the popular history.

The last two decades are not the only ones when China has opened up to the world.AChina tour will reveal many astounding facts about the country.History reveals that China has been the favorite destination for foreigners in the past as well. In fact one of the guests in the country now rests in the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region Museum.

The Beauty of Loulan' never fails to impress the visitors. One of the oldest mummies in China is a Caucasian. This woman is said to have been buried in 1800 B.C. near Lop Nur, a dried salt lake 120 miles from Urumqi that has been used by the Chinese for nuclear testing. The first sight at her and the word "Weigouren" slips out of the mouth. The extreme dryness of the region has kept the corpse remarkably intact so that the eyelashes and the fine hair on the skin are still visible!

The presence of this fine lady in China questions the theory that foreigners did not travel China until one thousand years later when trade started between Asia and Europe along the Silk Route.There is another lady, mummified of course, called the Beauty of Xiaohe'. Wearing a hat she looks like she is taking a nap.

If you think that tattoos are a cool modern idea, then think again. Otzi, the Iceman is the name of a well preserved mummy that is 5300 years old with a tattoo. Mummies have been found in Tarim Basin in China with tattoos over them.The Tocharian male mummy which was found wearing a helmet that has the Swastika' mark which is a symbol from the Indo-European Language. The mummy is 3500 years old and has red hair and a European face.

The presence of such mummies points to the un-chronicled presence Caucasians in ancient China. Strangely till now,Mandarin history had no clue of their presence.
