Are you sure? I've not heard of any Chinese presence in Afrika prior to the Ming (?) dynasty which sent a fleet around the 1400s to the Indian Ocean. that was the peak of Chinese civilisation and naval power

He may be referring to the Bushmen (Khoisan), the speakers of a 'click' language. They have some Oriental features and their children have 'mongoloid spots.' They also have some physical features that are unique from all other humans.

Maybe I should write what Lazamataz wrote as his tagline "proudly posting without reading the article since 1999!"
