The early culture of east China along the lower reaches (present-day Shandong and Henan Province) of the Yellow River facing Korea and Japan.

The culture of Dawenkou has its own writing characters, arts and etc... It co-existed with the Yangshao culture.

  • hey those images from 3:40 to 3:51 looks exactly like those found on Hmoob paj ntaub...so maybe it is really true that we hide our language in paj ntaub...can u tell me where you got those images?

    thanks

  • @MrPebyoghmoob

    i looked the pictures up in google and baidu, a chinese website... copy paste and search 大汶口文化.

    i have a feeling Hmong have many origins - two ancient cultures, the Dawenkou of Yellow and the Daxi of Yangtze.

  • Has the Jiuli script been deciphered yet? Is there an impetus among Hmong-Mienh to re-adopt it?

  • I don't think Hmong-Mienh will able to re-adopt it since the meaning of the scripts have been lost for more than 5000 years. The language of the Miao-Yao also have been changed for many centuries. Listening to all Miao dialects, there are difficulty among all dialects. Language cannot unite the Miao people, except songs, stories, history and common cultural artifacts.

  • Thank you for the informative video. The Yangshao culture also has similar symbols, found on potteries, discovered in eastern part of Qinghai province and southern Gansu provinces, believed to be the birth place of Yanshao culture and Hua Xia people. The cultures of the past were definitely connected. I can't help to wonder that this might indicate the process of Hua-Xia'lisation.

  • I have been told the exact same thing.

  • Really amazing creativity and craftsmanship. I was looking for ancient Chinese burial tombs and found this.

  • @niamtxiv, thov txeeb sij hawm sib txuas lus puas tau? Thov email; Kuv yog ib tug me nyuam Hmoob xav paub tej koj tso no kom meej, thiab.

  • @niamtxiv.I see a small clip in hmong variety tape#4, where one gentleman who collected some old items in his little museum,I do see lot of clay jars and some other items that are still identical to what you have shown in this video.

  • Good job but there needs to be a better dating scale. What about b.c(before Christ). There are datings of the Hmong people way before the mioa and where they came from.

  • Can I get the image on 3:37?

  • @PcXiong559

    Dude, the memo I sent out was "top secret, hush hush". You're not supposed to broadcast my plans out to reincarnate Chiyou out to the world, let alone Youtube! Now you've gone and done it. I told you all about the Neutrality Act of 1794. Did you already forget??!

  • this is what i like to know. thank you niamtxiv.

  • @PcXiong559 hmmm i've heard of this too and seen a few rare pics of him... i still think it's a rumor though. i even heard of his whereabouts too. but like i said i still think he may not be and is a rumor.
