Sheeeeesh. With all the billions and billions who have lived there for

Bury it again and ignore it. That is one way.:) There has been a theory that Zhou ruling class were chariot-riding Caucasians(Aryans?) from Eurasian Steppe, just like Aryans in India and Persia, Hittites and Hiksos in Near East.

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.
