"Xi Shaodian married to the Youyu clan, and gave birth to the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor. The Yellow Emperor was made of Ji Shui, and the Yan Emperor was made of Jiang Shui. ”
In ancient legends, the Second Emperor of Yanhuang was the ancestor of the Chinese, although the two tribes often fought, but it could not hide that they were in the same vein, the two tribes slowly merged, known as the Huaxia, and after the establishment of the Han Dynasty in 202 BC, the Huaxia slowly changed their title and began to call themselves Han.
As for the title of descendants of Yanhuang, it mainly existed in the last years of the Qing Dynasty. At this time, the rulers of the Qing Dynasty were corrupt and incompetent, and many people used the banner of "Yanhuang Descendants" in order to resist the Manchu rule. However, the changes in the wind and clouds, the invasion of the great powers made most people realize that the descendants of Yanhuang were not the unique titles of the Han people, but should be the Chinese that condensed the national strength, and the Manchus shouted "Rise up to my Yellow Emperor, drive away the white race, break the banner of the Han dynasty, and make a living for themselves", which has a profound significance.
So as a descendant with a long history, how to distinguish it? In fact, there are three special "imprints" that can help us quickly distinguish whether they are descendants of Yan Huang or not.
The first mark is the green spot. Many newborn children have green spots on their bodies, mainly on the buttocks, back and neck. However, after growing up, the children's green spots quickly disappear, and many people may not know what this is, but in fact, it has a scientific name, called congenital dermal melanocyte pleocytosis.
In fact, the appearance of green spots has a great relationship with human characteristics, this kind of green spots are mainly Asian, Africans and Europeans and Americans generally do not have such characteristics. This is mainly related to pigment, and its appearance in Asians has reached a 10% probability.
The second feature is the spade-shaped front teeth, which refer to the two teeth in the middle that have thick roots, thinner tips, and are concave in the middle. According to expert research, the teeth of the Beijingers found in 1959 are like this, so it can be determined that the ancient humans who were contemporaneous with the Beijingers or even later were shovel-shaped front teeth, and the main population of this shape of front teeth was the descendants of Yanhuang. According to statistics, only about 8% of white people in the world have such front teeth, while only about 11% of black people.
Another sign of the descendants of Yan Huang is the inner canthal fold. Nowadays, many people are likely to cut their double eyelids in order to have a pair of large eyes, and they are also likely to open the corners of their eyes to increase their eyes and achieve better visual effects. But in reality. The inner canthal fold is a characteristic of the descendants of Yan Huang, which refers to the formation of a fold in the upper eyelid of Yanjiao, which will cover part of the eye.
In general, the medial canthal fold is related to the bridge of the nose, and if the medial fold is very serious, then the bridge of the person's nose is generally not very high. However, this is not to say that people with low nose bridges are all endothanthanth folds, some people may just have eyes without epicanthal folds.
In addition, there are some other characteristics of the Descendants of Yanhuang, such as the small toe compound toe, in short, the little thumb is two lobes. More than 600 years ago, Zhu Yuanzhang overthrew the Mongol rule and ascended to the throne. However, because the founding of the country had not yet stabilized at the beginning, and there were frequent wars, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to let the Shanxi people immigrate. These people need to leave their hometowns, they also need to leave their relatives and friends, and everyone is crying and tearing, very unwilling.
At this time, the soldiers thought of a way to cut a knife on each person's little thumb toenail and make a mark to facilitate the future recognition of ancestors. "Who is the ancient locust immigrant, take off the small toe to test the nail shape", according to legend, most of the people who have small toes and compound toes are related to Shanxi immigrants.
It is true that the appearance of the descendants of Yanhuang will be different from others, but biologically speaking, after the integration of nationalities and races, the pure descendants of Yanhuang have ceased to exist. However, from the perspective of cultural identity, the title of Descendants of Yanhuang is still very necessary.
