Nordics in Ancient China By Brian Simpson

I have been presenting evidence of the ancient Nordics, or Indo-Europeans as the founders of a number of civilisations, such as India.  There is evidence of a Nordic impact upon China as well. First, the Nordic/ Indo-European presence.

David Comas (et al.), “Trading Genes Along the Silk Road: mtDNA Sequences and the Origin of Central Asian Populations,” American Journal of Human Genetics, vol. 63, 1998, pp. 1824-1838, analysed mtDNA in samples of Kazakh, Vighurs, lowland Kirghiz and highland Kirghiz: “Central Asian mtDNA sequences present features intermediate between European and East Asian sequences, in several parameters – such as the frequencies of certain nucleotides, the levels of nucleotide diversity, mean pairwise differences, and genetic differences.” (p. 1824)

Comas (et al.) stated that the most plausible hypothesis to account for this is “extensive levels of admixture between Europeans and East Asians in central Asia, possibly enhanced during the Silk Road trade and clearly after Eastern and Western Eurasian human groups had diverged.” (p.1824)

Contact thus accounts for the fact that “nucleotide polymorphism in mtDNA sequences in central Asian population is intermediate between those reported for Europe and those reported for Eastern Asia.” (p. 1818)

Beyond mtDNA evidence is dental evidence, as outlined in C. Lee and E. R. Scott, “Brief Communication: Two-Rooted Lower Canines – A European Trait and Sensitive Indicator of Admixture Across Eurasia,” American Journal of Physical Anthropology, vol. 146, 2011, pp. 481-485. Two-rooted lower canines are much more common in Europeans than other races, and thus can be used as an indicator to evaluate gene flow between Europeans and other groups. Samples from Europe are found with an average frequency of 10 percent; in sub-Saharan African populations, the characteristic is unknown and in Asian and Asian-derived populations, the frequency varies from 0.0 to 1.0 percent.

Lee and Scott found that the average frequencies of two-rooted canines along the western frontiers of China and Mongolia ranges from 0 - 4 percent. “These data suggest European-derived populations migrated into western China (Xinjiang Province) and Mongolia (Bayan Olgii Aimag) sometime during the late Bronze Age (1000 - 400 BCE).” (p. 481)

Lee and Scott conclude: “Archaeological excavations support the large-scale movement of people into this area during the Bronze Age (ca 2200 BCE - 400 BCE). Burial artefacts and settlement patterns suggest cultural and technological ties to the Afanasievo culture in Siberia, which in turn is linked archaeologically, linguistically, and genetically with the Indo-European Tocharian populations that appear to have migrated to the Tarim Basin ca 4,000 years ago.” (p. 483)

A number of blonde and red-haired mummies, with straight Nordic noses were found in the Tarim basin of western china, dressed in clothes indicating high social status. This is documented in a number of books, such as Elizabeth Wayland Barber, The Mummies of Urumchi: Did Europeans Migrate to China 4,000 Years Ago? (Macmillan, London, 1999). The possibility exists, according to some archaeologists, that Europeans could have introduced to China technologies such as the wheel, as the migration of Europeans to China may have begun when wheeled wagons were first used, about 5,000 years ago.

Terrien de Lacouperie, Western Origins of the Early Chinese Civilisation from 2,000 BC to 200 AD, (Asher, London, 1894), believed that his comprehensive study showed: “The comparatively late beginnings of the Chinese civilisation showed themselves to be the outcome of an importation, not a distinctive growth from common seeds, but simply a loan, a derivation, an extension eastward from a much older form of culture in the West.” (p. 1) Further evidence of an European influence on the development of Chinese civilisation is given in William Montgomery McGovern, The Early empires of Central Asia (University of North Carolina Press, Chapel Hill, 1939), which quotes from Turkish and Chinese records on the role of whites in ancient China.

This material directly challenges the thesis accepted by many white nationalists, of the intellectual superiority of East Asians.
