So where did the Chinese peoples come from?
When I was a young buck I studied Chinese. The professors were all older gentlemen who had received their degrees in mainland China before the Reds took over, and they escaped.
They said that until then, most Chinese had a clear tribal identity within the greater Chinese identity. Among the most ancient traditions of the Han was a constant migration to the east. Many have speculated that they were moving away from the gradual desertification of central asia.
I’ve noticed that almost all languages outside of Asia are multi-syllable while languages in Asia are tonal. Yet the genetics of Asia indicate a somewhat recent population from Africa, compared to Aborigines and the Middle East. Could the tonal languages be the result of this mysterious third branch of Humanity, just as RH- could be a lingering remnant of Neanderthal?
