I notice that China always includes Taiwan in their country maps.

The Furthest East Caucasian Remains of Dead Unearthed from Han Tombs at Hulijia

writer£º Cai Linhai date£º 2006-1-11 19:54:55

The said cemetery is situated in Minhe Basin at the east end of the Yellow River valley in Qinghai Province. The tablelands there are broad and weather mild. Their sea altitude measures between 1800 to 1900 meters. Formerly known as Han tombs at Chouxia kou (Zhongchuanxiang), Hulijia Han tombs are located at the third and fourth mesas northeast of Hulijia Village where the Yellow River and Damajia River meet.

The most significant among the findings from Huliajia Han tombs are those unearthed bones. Examination and analysis of bones from one tomb have revealed that the physiognomic features of these three skeletons belong to those of the Caucasians. This is the only group of ethnical data associated with the Caucasians that have been found in this province. It meanwhile also constitutes the furthest east Caucasian remains of dead from ancient times.

Chronologically, the tombs fall under the periods of the Late Western Han, Wang Mang reign, mid-Eastern Han, and late Eastern Han. Generally speaking, Han tombs at Hulijia do not differ significantly from tombs located at other regions of Qinghai in terms of types and configurations.

Nonetheless, Hulijia Han tombs present some characters of their own as well. For example, the sets of glazed potteries are rich in kind, including ¡®ear cups¡¯(erbei), zun vessels, kettles, granary models, well models, bowls, plates, stoves, desks, bottles, zeng cooking vessels, and ovens, totaling fifteen in kind. This is where the richest glazed potteries have been found in Qinghai.

Psssst, (pulling at poster's ear), you might want to keep it quiet but Taiway always shows China as part of their country.
