China’s first contact with the West dates back to 200BC when China’s emperor Wu Di wanted to establish an alliance with the West against the marauding Huns, then based in Mongolia. However, the discovery of the mummies suggests that Caucasians were settled in a part of China thousands of years before Wu Di: the notion that they arrived in Xinjiang before the first East Asians is truly explosive.
Xinjiang is dominated by the Uighurs, who resent what they see as intrusion by the Han Chinese. The tensions which have spilled over into violent clashes in recent years.
Whatever the reason for the Chinese decision, it has caused great disappointment at the Pennsylvania museum where the “Secrets of the Silk Road” were due to go on show after successful exhibitions in California and Texas without major reproductions.

There is also a great link to hook up with some real live chinese chicks.
Hey, go for it. I didn’t get those, but my filter is set on “high.” Not to forget that chicks = not my gender preference.
It is one of the sponsored ad links on The Independent article page. Looks like a Match.com if you are looking for an Asian wife. I don’t think I am. I guess you aren’t either.

Thanks, i’ll ping this when I get home.
You’re out tubing? Fantastic!
Yeah, to tube is to live. ;’)
This burial is one I remember reading about now. That mummy of the screaming baby is the tip off - that child was buried alive.
The mummified woman everyone is talking about was a Celtic witch, even buried wearing a pointed hat. The witch was accompanied in her grave by two sacrificial victims: another woman, who was murdered, and an infant buried alive with the witch.
Where did they come from?
When the Old Euxine Lake was flooded by the Mediterranean Sea some 7,500 years ago (it was renamed the New Euxine Sea by the ancients and is known today as the Black Sea), the people living around that lake were forced to migrate in all directions of the compass.
The ancient Celts were a major group that were displaced. Celts are found in a southeastern part of Turkey, they migrated across Europe all the way to the Atlantic, and migrated to the east as far as the western deserts of China.
That is why a caucasian witch wearing a pointed hat is found buried in an central east Asian desert along with sacrificial victims. Now you know the stories about witches stealing children originates far in the past and the why of such acts.

That's obviously an image of one of the vandalized and destroyed Cairo mummies.
That’s not a mummy, it’s a zombie. Still walking around. :-))
These Caucasian looking skeletons just keep popping up all over the place.
