Murder or malpractice? A very, very cold case indeed.

Are they saying life started in China…and not Africa?

I can guess that 1.93m is pretty big in china; everywhere else it’s a small where it counts; the Chinese finally admit SIZE DOES MATTER. Mao or someone like Kim-Jong-il will have written a rule to explain the deficiency.

Holes drilled in skulls and even trepanation are not unheard of in ancient skeletal remains, but it’s the first I’ve heard of it in China. Either he had a great deal of pain in his cranium and this was an attempt to let it escape, or he was a very odd, angry or disturbed individual and this was intended to let the evil spirit(s) out.

The stature of this skeleton at a comparatively young age would appear to argue against being of any ethnic Chinese origin, and would seem to be more likely to be associated with the many, apparently European remains of large stature, many with red hair and buried with plaid fabrics. But, the claim is Asian features.

Modern Han Chinese are ethnocentric to the point of racism, so there is motivation to make a claim that is not necessarily so.

so this means the guy lived at about 2,000 BC.

The caucasians types discovered in western china were ‘the Mummies of Urumchi’. They had some sort of society in the Tarim basin. Probably were immigrants from around the southern urals, from a steppe culture.

One of the mummies was about 6’4”.

When you said giant teenaged caveman discovered in China, it made me wonder if her was into prehistoric video games like Pong.
