A big shocker would be if they had red or blonde hair. What would the Chinese do?
Caucasians moved into China around that time, so these could have been the Aryan groups migrating out of Eastern Persia - Western India - Central Asia belonging to the Tocharian linguistic branch. The Western branches had moved out earlier and had established themselves in Anatolia around 2000 B.C. -- the hittites and the Mitanni.

Hiksos in Near East.
The Hyksos in Egypt Aryan?? Most conventional thinking considers them to be Semitic groups.

Re #23
I was not claiming that Hyksos was Aryan. Just Caucasian.:)

Mea culpa! But then, I always thought that the Egyptians at least in the Old dynasty times were a sort of Hamitic-Caucasian mixture of peoples, neither pure Caucasian nor pure Ethiopian type peoples.

"Caucasians moved into China around that time, so these could have been the Aryan groups migrating out of Eastern Persia - Western India - Central Asia belonging to the Tocharian linguistic branch." The Tocharian speakers were already there when the Iranians showed up. Incidently, the oldest paper ever found had Tocharian written on it.

"Theh Han dynasty was around the time of Christ, correct? These could have been Nestorian." I think the Han Dynasty began around 100BC...I may be wrong.
