Through archeology, we realized mankind may have been around for hundred thousands of years. History tell us that civilisation only began 4000 years ago, but that's because it was based on recorded history.

But what about UNRECORDED history of civilisation - where groups of humans formed societies for self protection, used a primitive form of social order and started farming and trade instead of just hunting for animals?

Archeology digs had shown mankind capable of such deeds, as evident by farm tools, constructed living quarters, and a form of social order with burial mounds, and much more other evidences. Therefore, there must be civilisations that dates back to more than 4000 years old on Earth.

There seems to be 3 basic types of homo sapiens - the strong tall blond blue eyed and adventurours Aryans from Nordic states. 2nd type are the equally tall and strong but black skinned Africans. The 3rd kind are the Mongoloids of China.

Could it be that eons past, they contributed to the gene pool in physical characteristics through intergration and absorbtion into societies? And then with each further waves of migration, the racial characteristics continue to evolved to present day differences?

Even before there was name to China, mongoloids may have wandered into the american continent, and coupled with the adventurous migrating Aryans, their integration became the American Indians?

The american indians bears little resemblance to the Chinese. They look more Aryans than Chinese.

However, perhaps a significant smaller group of Aryans wandered into China and due to the mass of mongoloid there, due to the smaller integeration, the characterics of Chinese became unique?

Questions of which I have no answer, except only upon closer examinations of the ethnic types and using logic to form a hypothesis...a starting point for further research, analysis and debate, and still with no answer unless one is capable of time travel...

PS. Just a note, it doesnt really matter now anymore, of what we were once before. What matters now is who we are today and how we can integrate furthur to evolve mankind to a better existance, not by culling, but helping one another to reach our best potential to further mankind and take to the stars.

most likely american indians are descendants of a altai related tribe judging by their languages.

tepec which means hill in aztec compared to tepe which means hill in turkic

Say First Americans, then.

As in, 'I got here first and claim this land for me and mine'.

Sheesh.

Our People tell it that China was settled by Cherokees. Among others.

Shang oracle-bone script of prior to 1,000 BCE was found of 9 pictographs inscribed on the belly of a 66 lb "ogre" (fat man) found in the summer of 1920 by William Chalmers just SW of Rocky Mtn Natl Park near the S shore of Granby Reservoir! This is good confirmation... thanks!

Very nice answer, thanks. You confirmed my suspicions.

Another thing I noticed later...overlyaing some parts, the map has a very precise, squared, grid-like background eminating from and terminating in the polar regions. I've never seen anything like that on truly ancient maps, either Eastern or Western.

Thanks again for the good info.

You're welcome.Since I have been a silent viewer for quite some time, so I reckon I may also try to contribute to the thread since Chinese is my native language.

I don't know if their idea of native Americans being descendants of Chinese is valid or not. As stated in the article, they have a lot more maps in the book. It would be nice if they can include a more relevant map in the article, but not a 17th Century one.

This theory makes sense, and is consistent with the Out of Africa theory. As members of the genus Homo migrated out of Africa they adapted to their new environments and became what are today (For a more detailed explanation, since I'm leaving out quite a lot, Google search the theory).

I imagine that as groups of Chinese people migrated out of China, the adaptations to the region now known as North America, would result in what we commonly call the Native Americans.

I don't think this is really confirmed by Native American oral history... or tradition... which is probably why it's not so widely accepted. Native Americans may find something like this offensive... or not... sadly I'm not an expert on their culture... so... I can't really say anything about them with 100% certainty.

It is a very fascinating possibility, and I look forward to reading more about this subject!
