 Re: websites on the caucasoid intermingling and assimilation

Ken,
Yes, what you said is true, but they are the exceptions and is a very small percentage of the 1.1 billion Han Chinese. My point refers to the original few threads that many Right-wing/racist websites(and some liberal ones too) claiming Han Chinese came from Caucasoid stock. Genetic analysis disputes this because the bulk of the Han Chinese do not have the 'Caucasoid' genes (correct term is genetic markers). Due to racial mixing, it is possible that there may be one out 10,000 Han Chinese containing a Caucasoid genetic marker. This means you have to collect DNA samples from at least 50,000 Han Chinese spread all over the country to obtain representive samples. That's why I said more samples and analysis are needed. Actually it is unecessary because they have collected and analysed more than a thousand Han Chinese and detected no Caucasoid genes. So if these Caucasoid genes are there, they thus would be likely below 1 in 1000. So the Caucasian origin of Han Chinese, Hmong, etc have no genetic basis. Even for the Uyghurs, they strictly can't claim Central Asian origin with their 25 % genetic lineage. They may be able to claim patrilineage if their y genetic marker is predominantly the Central Asian type.
For paleo-genetics, if they are insufficient samples of old skeletal remains, the results have to be analysed very carefully. If by chance, a dead person (said 2500 years back)with Caucasoid genes was preserved and found, the results from DNA analysis of its remains cannot be generalised to the bulk of the population or descendents.
