The mummies of Urum-Chi didn't have Han DNA.

Han Chinese are the dominant ethnic group in China, 93% of the population. When you think "Chinese" you mean Han.

"The mummies of Urum-Chi didn't have Han DNA."

First of all, how do you know that?

Second, the mummies of Urumchi were there before the Han showed up beginning around 100-200BC. They later mixed (amongst themselves and others) and are known today as the Uighyrs.
