Human history is created by humans. Therefore, if we want to understand human history, we must first understand that people are nations, and nations are the main body in creating human history and civilization. Therefore, in order to understand Chinese history and civilization, we must first study the origin and development of nations in the East Asian continent.
Peace, food, clothing, and freedom are the basis for human beings to obtain happiness and happiness. However, it was very difficult for the ancients who lived in the middle and late stages of the last glacial period when floods and geological disasters were frequent; during the glacial period, humans could only be confined to the warm tropics and subtropics. Human beings live in areas that are often crowded and resource-poor. It is very difficult for human beings to obtain basic living security. The early human society was a primitive matriarchal clan society, and the social management system of matriarchal clan society was barbaric, cruel, and inhumane. Characteristics: Human beings living in primitive matrilineal clan society have no freedom in spirit and action. They live a life inferior to that of pigs and dogs. Therefore, the Great Migration of mankind provided opportunities for the people of the middle and lower classes to change their destiny and pursue their dreams in life. These nations who seized the opportunity and bravely participated in the Great Migration later became great nations around the world and became the kings of the world's nations.
The extremely cold and arid climate of the Ice Age turned most of the land in the region into ice-covered areas and barren areas. These ice-covered areas and barren areas were basically uninhabited areas. Therefore, in the early days of the great migration of humans, humans It is difficult to encounter natural enemies in nature. The only natural enemy of human beings is humans themselves. Therefore, as long as migrating people avoid densely populated areas, migration activities can proceed smoothly. Therefore, in the process of human migration, in order to avoid conflicts between ethnic groups, migratory people always choose uninhabited and sparsely populated areas to migrate. During the middle and late stages of the last glacial period, continents such as East Asia, America, Central Asia, the Middle East, and Europe Areas are uninhabited areas or sparsely populated areas where the natural environment has been greatly improved and are suitable for human survival. Therefore, these areas have become the main migration areas for humans.
In the process of the great migration of mankind, because the maritime peoples, gathering peoples and hunting peoples were more mobile than the farming peoples, they migrated earlier than the farming peoples. However, during the migration process, the early migrating peoples were independent of each other and rarely Contact, the purpose of migration of marine peoples is to find new residences, water sources, land food, fishing areas and other natural resources. These natural resources are concentrated in coastal estuary areas, so coastal estuary areas are the migration destinations of marine peoples; the migration of gathering peoples The destination is deep forests and valleys with dense vegetation; the destination of the migration of hunting people is the prairie where animals can grow freely.
In the process of the great migration of mankind, because the farming peoples had more demanding requirements to carry out agricultural production, the migration of the farming peoples was later than that of the maritime peoples, gathering peoples, and hunting peoples. However, farming peoples can gain many late-mover advantages. If they can obtain rich geographical and climate information, migration guides and helpers from gathering and hunting peoples, it will be easy for farming peoples to find suitable villages to establish in the vast inland areas. In places where farmland and pastures are developed, because the farming people have production skills in farming, breeding, and animal husbandry, they can provide stable food to their collaborators. Therefore, the gathering people and hunting people also like to join the ranks of the farming people, and gradually become more advanced than the farming people. merge into a new nation.
During the middle and late stages of the last glacial period, southern China, Indochina, Southeast Asia and the South Asian subcontinent were the main living areas of modern humans. At that time, the most populous farming and pastoral people, the yellow race, settled in western Guangxi, southern Yunnan, northern Vietnam, Laos, Thailand and areas such as Myanmar, while brown and white people live primarily in the southern and northwestern parts of the subcontinent.
After the farmers and herders migrated from their original areas in southwest China and the Indochina Peninsula, some of the farmers and herders in this area moved westward into the northeastern region of the South Asian subcontinent, and later encountered the brown and white people living in the South Asian subcontinent. In order to avoid Direct and large-scale ethnic conflicts, the westward migration of farmers and herders can only proceed through the no-man's land of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. This is why today there are yellow farmers and herders distributed in the northeastern part of the South Asian subcontinent and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. These yellow people They are the ancestors of the Tibetan and Qiang people. Today, Tibetan culture, Qiang culture, Thai culture and Vietnamese culture still have many commonalities and homologous characteristics.
g means elephant in Thai. Elephant is the totem and worship idol of the Thai people. Therefore, Tibetans and Thais are one family. The Tibetan people once lived in places such as Niepur, Bhutan, and Nalanda. In Thai, Niebuhr (Buddha) The hometown of Sakyamuni)
ibo means "good father", buda in Bhutan
It is a "tribe in red, people in red", and Nalanda (the place where Buddha Sakyamuni preached) is a "school with families and fields"; Qiangqia
g means strong person and friend in ancient Yue language. The Qiang people and the Thai-Vietnamese people used to be good brothers who fought side by side.
After the farmers and herdsmen completely conquered the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, these farmers and herdsmen continued to migrate westward, crossing the Pamir Plateau and entering the Indus River Basin. Here, the yellow race, the red race, and the white race merged to form new ethnic groups. These new ethnic groups are the Chinese. The ancestors of Asians and people in the Middle East. From then on, agricultural civilization appeared in the Indus River Basin. There are still many ancient Vietnamese place names in the area, such as Nalan.
ala
, in ancient Vietnamese
a is farmland, la
is home (usually spelled la in Western languages)
d), Nalan means farmer. At the same time, plateau farmers and herdsmen also entered the Tarim Basin, developed the Tarim River and Lop Nur agricultural areas, and established the great Loulan Kingdom. Loulan means "us" in the ancient Vietnamese language, and Lan la means "us".
It is home, Loulan is our home. Therefore, the plateau farmers and herders are the main ancestors of various ethnic groups in Xinjiang, China and Central Asia.
The overland migration of Southeast Asian farmers and herdsmen mainly took place in East Asia, that is, mainland China, and then developed in Siberia and the American continent, as well as in Central Asia, the Middle East, the Mediterranean coast and Europe. In order to reveal the ethnic origins of East Asia, here we will focus on the study of the ethnic origins and development of the East Asian continent.
In previous chapters, we have described the migration of Southeast Asian farmers and herdsmen from the birthplace and base of agriculture and animal husbandry in Indochina to Guangdong, Fujian, and areas south of the Yangtze River in China such as Hunan, Jiangxi, Anhui, Zhejiang, and Jiangsu, and then they crossed the Yangtze River We will not discuss this migration in detail here.
In short, after the Southeast Asian farmers and herdsmen completed the Great Migration in southern China and the Central Plains, they migrated to the southeastern coastal areas of China and merged with the maritime peoples who arrived in the area first, forming a mixed economy that relied on sea farming, industry and commerce for a living. New ethnic groups include Hepu people, Leizhou people, Zhanjiang people, Chaoshan people, Minnan people, Wenzhou people, Bohai people and other ancient ethnic groups. Together with some ethnic groups such as the Yao, Miao, and She who first arrived in China's inland areas, they integrated into the Baiyue ethnic groups such as Yangyue, Minyue, Dongou, and Xiou. The Yao, Miao, and She who were not integrated moved into the mountainous areas. and subsistence hunting, fishing, and gathering.
After careful scientific research, we believe that the Southeast Asian farmers and herdsmen started from northwest Guangxi, southeastern Yunnan, that is, the Baise Basin and Wenshan area, crossed the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, and headed north and west with the Qinchuan area as the center, the Sichuan area and the area north of the Qinling Mountains. , the migration to the east has very profound significance and important role in the formation and development of nations and cultures in China and the world. We will focus on this migration process below.
About 45,000 years ago to 30,000 years ago, farmers and herdsmen from Southeast Asia successfully immigrated to southwest China and the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.
According to archaeological discoveries and research, the Balai rock paintings in Ningming, Guangxi record in detail the scene when ancient humans entered the Zuojiang River Basin area in Guangxi. From the scene analysis of the rock paintings, of course, the ancient humans had a certain organizational form. They carried weapons and tools and used unique methods. They used canoes, wheels and other means of transportation, and they raised cattle, pigs, sheep, dogs and other animals. These ancient people had a full understanding of geographical phenomena such as mountains and rivers, and celestial phenomena such as the sun, which shows that they already had certain geographical knowledge and astronomical knowledge. The human figures in the Balai rock paintings The squatting style of painting is based on the ancient rock painting style found in Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam in Southeast Asia. This shows that Southeast Asian farmers and herdsmen once entered Guangxi. The pigment of rock paintings is generally cinnabar (mainly containing mercury sulfide HgS. In addition to being used in paintings, cinnabar is also used to ward off evil spirits in religious ceremonies). Rock paintings are a religious ceremony for the ancients to commemorate their ancestors. , is also a signpost used by the ancients to mark the migration path of their ancestors.
After the Southeast Asian farmers and herdsmen successfully settled and developed in Guangxi and Yunnan, they continued to move north. They first developed the farming and pastoral areas on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. They left a large number of rock paintings and hanging coffins in Gong County, Yibin, on the south bank of the Jinsha River. The style of county rock paintings is very similar to that of Balai rock paintings, indicating that these ancient people belonged to the same cultural group. This group of ancient humans based themselves on the valley plains and hills on the south bank of the Yangtze River from Luzhou to Chongqing. They crossed the Yangtze River in the Chongqing area and went north along the Jialing River to develop the eastern part of the Sichuan Basin and established the country of Cuba in the area. Another ancient Yue people crossed over in the Luzhou area. Along the Yangtze River, they moved northward to the Chengdu Plain, developed the western Sichuan Basin and the southern foot of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and established the ancient Shu Kingdom in this area. Therefore, the Ba and Shu people are the oldest ethnic groups in Sichuan, and they are both descendants of the ancient Yue people.
After the Guyue people completed their immigration and settlement in Sichuan, probably between 30,000 and 25,000 years ago, the Guyue people settled on the Songpan Plateau, Qinling Mountains, Qinchuan, Hexi Corridor, Loess Plateau, Mongolian Plateau, Northeast Plains, Migration, immigration and settlement began in Siberia, the Arctic, North America and other regions. The Guyue people who migrated to these regions became the ancestors of future peoples in these regions.
One of the greatest achievements during this period is that the Guyue people adapted to the alpine environment and northern climate in the Songpan Plateau and Qinchuan areas. They successfully developed new agricultural and animal husbandry production methods and lifestyles adapted to the alpine environment and northern climate, and successfully domesticated They planted highland barley, barley, wheat, millet, sorghum and other crops, and successfully domesticated and raised yaks, cattle, donkeys, sheep, pigs, dogs, chickens, ducks, geese and other livestock and poultry. Eventually, they developed into a population that was different from the Ba people. The new ethnic groups of the Shu people are the Di ethnic group living in the Songpan Plateau and Hexi area; the Qiang ethnic group living in the northeastern region of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau; and the Huaxia ethnic group living in the Qinchuan area and the Yellow River Hetao area.
Later, the Huaxia ethnic group developed into the leading ethnic group and the main ethnic group in the East Asian continent. The ruling class who established countries in the East Asian continent, especially in the Yellow River Basin, all regarded themselves as the Huaxia ethnic group. Therefore, in the following we will focus on studying the Huaxia people.
We have talked about the clan name of the Huaxia clan in the above chapters and will not repeat it here. According to Chinese historical documents, the Chinese nation arose in the Qinchuan area of Shaanxi Province and developed in the plains of the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River.
The earliest historical records of China date back to the Zhou Dynasty. Since the early ethnic groups were half-agricultural and half-pastoral, they had to move frequently to develop new farmland and pastures. This production and life characteristics made it difficult for many ethnic groups to establish a stable society and culture. Development methods, therefore many ethnic groups have not established their own cultural systems, let alone record their own history. Therefore, the court historians of the Zhou Dynasty may not know the origin and history of the Huaxia people, and the court historians of subsequent dynasties are even less aware of the origins of the Huaxia people. They can only tell things based on the records of the Zhou Dynasty. When past documents cannot answer ethnic issues, historians can only determine and divide ethnic relations based on the appearance, language, culture and customs of the ethnic group being studied.
At the beginning of the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, perhaps all humans in East Asia were of the yellow race, and these yellow race people would all speak a language similar to Ancient Yue. The Chinese people could still have smooth language communication with these ethnic groups; these ethnic groups were producing Their lifestyles, lifestyles, social systems, and religious customs were very similar to those of the Chinese people. Therefore, the historians of the Zhou Dynasty classified all the yellow people in East Asia as the Chinese people, and regarded all these ethnic groups as the subjects of the Zhou Dynasty's rule.
We cannot blame the historians of the Zhou Dynasty here. There is no problem with their racial and cultural concepts in dividing ethnic groups. The problem is that each ethnic group has a dispute over the ethnic name. Of course, if we analyze the cultural characteristics of Thailand and Vietnam, the yellow ethnic groups in East Asia are all called Huaxia ethnic groups. There is no problem. The problem is that other ethnic groups are unwilling to give up the names of their ancestors and use the names of other people's ancestors. However, the voice of the imperial court is the law of the country, which will affect the livelihood and life of every Chinese. Therefore, many weak and small ethnic groups quickly accepted the title and incorporation of the Zhou Dynasty, while many powerful ethnic groups stood on the opposite side of the Zhou Dynasty because of the issue of ethnic titles. .
Since the Zhou Dynasty, people of the Yellow race have all been members of the Huaxia race. The Yellow River Basin is the birthplace of the Huaxia race, and even the birthplace of all mankind. This bluntly created cultural concept eventually became a traditional and sacred ideological concept in Chinese history. The Yellow River Basin area became the birthplace of the Yellow race. The birthplace of mankind is also the birthplace of Eastern civilization. Nations that do not agree with and do not conform to this historical concept are aliens, and aliens are equal to enemies. "Influence the four directions and return to China", "Those who are not of our race must have different hearts!", "Those who offend China, even though they are far away, Must be punished!" Ethnic policies such as "Cultivate our people and suppress the barbarians with force" were also formulated by the civil servants of the imperial court. Of course, any policy formulated by the imperial court is not excessive, but the country does not have so much cost and energy to deal with contradictions, conflicts and wars.
Now let’s discuss the question of whether the Huaxia people are the general ethnic group of the yellow race in East Asia? It no longer makes any sense, because there is no longer any need to authenticate ethnic identity to take the imperial examination, or to serve as a court official or do court business. Most societies no longer have the concept of caste system and family status.
The Huaxia people are a real ethnic group. After the Huaxia people were formed, they developed agriculture and settled in the Weihe and Jinghe river basins. At the same time, they developed agricultural and livestock areas in northern Shaanxi and the Hetao Plain to the north. Then, they crossed the Yellow River eastward and entered the Shanxi region to develop agriculture and animal husbandry in the Weihe River Basin; they followed the Yellow River eastward to develop the Henan region. In order to develop the Henan region, they established a military in Shaanxian County, Sanmenxia City (today's Shaanzhou District, formerly known as Shaanxi). Fortress, at the same time, the Huaxia people built the world-famous underground cave dwelling urban areas here. The cave dwellings in these cities are warm in winter and cool in summer, which are very livable; the villages and cities here have good water supply and drainage systems and functions, which shows that the Chinese The nation has possessed superb civilization and wisdom in ancient times.
Later, Shaanxi became the dividing line between Shaanxi, that is, Qinchuan area and Henan area. From here, the Chinese nation left Qinchuan and fully developed the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, making the Chinese civilization the only civilization in the Yellow River Basin and a great civilization on the Asian continent.
In matrilineal clan societies, customs and social trends of female worship and fertility worship are common. People regard sex and reproduction as beautiful, and there is no sense of shame in today's society. Currently, temple sculptures and paintings in areas such as India and Nepal still retain Artistic image of fertility worship. The Qinchuan area is abbreviated as "Shaan". In today's Qinchuan dialect, "Shaan" is xia
,sa
or se and other pronunciations, in ancient Yue language se, sa
Or xia
The other pronunciation means female genitals.
In a matrilineal clan society, there was no current family form. People of that era only knew their mothers, who were the only parents, caregivers, teachers and guides for their children. Therefore, it was generally popular in society at that time to like and worship women, and to Give women a very high status and power.
For a very long time after humans completed the great migration of the last Ice Age and settled and developed in various parts of the world, all parts of the world were in matriarchal clan societies. Therefore, traces of matriarchal clan societies are more or less preserved in various parts of the world. For example, in ancient times, Thailand called siam
luo, in ancient Thai and ancient Vietnamese, xia
Equivalent to the Holy Mother, luo means knowledge, knowledge and wisdom, so Siam means Our Lady of Wisdom; there is a holy mountain in Jerusalem, the holy land of Western religions, called "Zion xia"
" (completely consistent with the Qin accent of Shaanxi). Believers who come to Jerusalem must go to worship Mount Zion, which is the upper city. "Zion" here means the Holy Mother. In ancient Chinese, "Shaanxi"
"The corresponding ancient Chinese character is "仙xia"
". Oracle "Xianxia"
The word "Xian" describes the image of a person standing on a mother's womb carrying a fetus, and a pair of hands delivering a lying baby! The word "Xian" is a comic book with anatomical significance!
The amount of information contained in hieroglyphs is astonishing. Oracle's logical processing methods and abilities such as pictography, abstraction, and characterization are very ingenious, accurate, and easy to understand. There are also ancient Chinese characters preserved from the matrilineal clan society, such as "hao hao" and "hao hao" for women;
"It's also "good sa"
"; The behavior of "female ya" is called "elegant ya". In ancient Chinese, ya means noble behavior.
However, after humans entered the patriarchal clan society, xia
,sa
Ancient Chinese words related to women such as , se, and ya have become taboo words and banned words. Among the people, these female words have gradually become keywords for swear words.
The Chinese nation and culture have extensive influence in the Yellow River Basin and the Yangtze River Basin. There is a Xiayi County at the intersection of Henan, Jiangsu and Shandong, which shows that the Chinese nation once settled and farmed here. There are many place names related to "Xia" in the south of the Yangtze River, such as Xiamen, Xiafan, etc. This shows that maybe the Huaxia people once occupied these areas, or maybe these areas once experienced the era of worshiping women, and the ancients here also worshiped "Huaxia" huaya” is the Virgin Mother of Fertility.
This shows that in East Asia, Central Asia, the Middle East and Europe, the worship of Xia (i.e. Yaya) and immortality in matrilineal clan societies are common.
Feminine worship phenomena and social systems such as worship.
In historical stories, there is a Xia Dynasty. This court was the first court established by the Huaxia people. However, due to the very lack of historical documents of the Xia Dynasty, it is difficult for our current history and culture from the Zhou Dynasty to the Han Dynasty to understand the Xia Dynasty and the Xia Dynasty before the cycle. The Shang Dynasty is discussed in detail, but here we can only make a general statement of the Xia Dynasty based on limited historical stories.
According to ancient records, after the rise of the Huaxia tribe and the Xia Kingdom, they first developed in areas such as Shaanxi, Shanxi, and the Northern Desert Grassland. At first, their production methods were both farming and animal husbandry. They developed agricultural areas in the Qinchuan and Hetao areas, and in the Northern Desert Cattle, sheep, donkeys and horses are grazed in the grassland.
After the Qinchuan area and the Yellow River Hetao area matured, the Huaxia people established Yanmen Pass in northern Shanxi as the last line of defense against other nomadic peoples, ensuring the stability of the northern border of the Xia Kingdom. According to the records of the Zhou Dynasty, the foreign tribe in the north of the Zhou Dynasty is the "Beidi". "Di" and "Di" are homophones. The pictographic meaning of the word Di is "barbarians who can play with fire." The use of fire is the production and living habit of the Di people. Therefore, Beidi is the Di people, and the Xia and Zhou dynasties want to defend against the foreign tribes in the north who are the Di people living in the Mobei area. This shows that at that time, the Di people mainly lived in the Songpan Plateau and Hexi areas at the intersection of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu provinces. At the same time, the Di people had immigrated and developed their economy to the Loess Plateau, Mongolian Plateau, Siberia and other areas. These Di people gradually derived and Evolved into the farming people and nomadic people in the northeastern part of the East Asian continent.
The western border of the Xia Kingdom is the Hexi Corridor area. Zhou Dynasty historians called this place "Xirong". This is an area where the Di and Qiang and other ethnic groups merged. Rong refers to the military uniform, because the Hexi Corridor is the intersection of the economy and culture of the East and the West. There are many ethnic groups here, a mixture of fish and dragons, and frequent social conflicts and wars. Therefore, farmers and herdsmen here have the habit of wearing military uniforms and carrying weapons.
The southern border of the Xia Kingdom was the northern Hubei, Jianghuai and other areas on the north bank of the Yangtze River. Zhou Dynasty historians called the foreign ethnic groups in the south of the country "Southern Barbarians", so the "Southern Barbarians" were the ancient Yue people south of the Yangtze River. "Pretty mama
/ba
"" means village and city in the ancient Yue language. Perhaps when the historians of the Zhou Dynasty went to the area south of the Yangtze River to collect information, the historians of the Zhou Dynasty asked the locals, "Where do they live?" ”, the local people pointed at the village and said, “That’s so cruel.”
” Therefore, the historians of the Zhou Dynasty called the Guyue people in the south of the Yangtze River barbarians. The reason why barbarism and barbarism are equal is that the Guyue people have bare chests and arms, tattoos and broken hair, strong temperaments, and bravery in committing suicide, which made the historians of the Zhou Dynasty feel that the Guyue people were very different and incompetent. Reasonable, rough and barbaric, so southerners have the derogatory name Nanman. The Han Dynasty called the people south of the Yangtze River Baiyue. After the Han Dynasty, all Baiyue became Han people, which is today's Han nationality.
The eastern borders of the Xia Kingdom were areas such as Hebei and Shandong. These areas had long coastlines. The maritime peoples of Southeast Asia should have migrated to these areas from the sea. Later, they merged with the farming peoples of Baiyue who migrated from the south. These peoples were conquered by the Zhou Dynasty. Historians collectively call them "Dongyi".
Historians of the Zhou Dynasty called foreign peoples in Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan, Guangxi and other areas "barbarians". In the ancient Vietnamese language, "barbarians" means women and girls, and it is also what individuals call themselves when they need to indicate their female identity. In ancient times, men and women The attire is almost the same and it can cause a lot of misunderstandings if the gender is not indicated. The historians of the Zhou Dynasty who did not understand the customs of the Yue people and the ancient Yue language, because they heard too many names with "Yiyi" in these ethnic groups, they called these ancient Yue people barbarians. Of course, barbarians are not a good word either. It contains the arrogance of the rulers, as well as the contempt and slander of foreigners.
Today, it is impossible for us to restore the original history of the Xia Dynasty, but we understand the truth that the development process of human beings will change human life and production methods, change human customs, culture, thoughts and religions, causing human beings to create barriers, differentiation, and opposition. , conflict and war. Therefore, we have the responsibility to reveal the fact that human beings share the same origin, and to expose those ugly incidents that deliberately cover up the facts with sinister intentions and create division, conflict and hatred among human beings. Thereby reducing human conflicts and wars, and once human beings love and help each other.
In essence, the root cause of human conflict lies in the fact that the world has very few resources for life and development, while human beings have endless demand for resources. This objectively existing contradiction will inevitably lead to people who do not have resources to conquer and rob people who have resources. The role of civilization is to solve human conflicts and disasters. The way to solve this problem is to increase social supply, meet human needs, and essentially improve the human survival and development environment through the development of agriculture, animal husbandry, tool and equipment manufacturing, etc. and basics. At the same time, we should establish social systems and mechanisms that oppose the monopoly and monopoly of natural resources and social resources, ensure the value principles and legal spirit of equality, justice, kindness, benevolence, etc. in society, and ensure that everyone has a sense of gain, happiness, and freedom.
However, there are always evil forces in this world that are against civilization. The values of these evil forces are full of selfishness, and they do unscrupulous things in order to obtain personal gains. These evil forces are the public enemies of mankind and the public enemies of civilization. Our responsibility is to expose People recognize their sinister intentions and ugly faces, so they are prevented and eliminated by humans like the plague.
After China became a people's state in the last century, a new situation emerged in which all ethnic groups in China lived in harmony, united and loved each other. After nearly a century of unremitting efforts, the Chinese nation repelled the invasion and oppression of evil Western forces and restored the Chinese nation's self-confidence and civilization development. Since then, the Chinese nation has embarked on a path of civilized development of liberation, self-improvement, rejuvenation, transcendence, win-win and sharing.
Through the historical facts listed above in this article, it can be proved that all Chinese ethnic groups do have a unique clan origin. This origin is those ancient humans who once lived in the tropical and subtropical areas of the last glacial period, that is, in the southern part of the East Asian continent and the Indochina Peninsula.
After ancient humans such as the Guyue completed the Great Migration, the migratory humans merged with local humans, forming the Tai, Dai, Shan, Khmer and other ethnic groups in Southeast Asia; the Baiyue ethnic group was formed in the area south of the Yangtze River in China; The Dongyi people are formed in the north and the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River; the Baipu, Ba, Shu and other ethnic groups are formed in Sichuan; the Di, Qiang and other ethnic groups are formed in the Songpan Plateau, the Hexi Corridor and the northeastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau; in Qin Sichuan area and the Yellow River Hetao area formed the Huaxia ethnic group. At the same time, some of the ancient ethnic groups such as the She, Yao, Miao, and Yi ethnic groups have integrated into the new ethnic groups, and some have moved to mountainous areas to live and develop independently.
Subsequently, the Di, Qiang and Huaxia people in northwest China gave birth to the Huns, Xianbei, Turks, Tubos, Khitans, Mongols, etc., which were the northern nomadic peoples that caused great pain to successive Chinese courts.
Today, all ethnic groups in China have given up their narrow national views, united under the banner of Chinese civilization, and jointly created a great civilization and a happy life for mankind facing the future. This is a blessing for China and a blessing for the world!
