600 years of Chinese bloodline in Kenya

- According to legends,a team of Chinese sailors survived a shipwreck in the Indian Ocean waters and settled in Lamu Island.
Historians contend the sailors were part of a fleet sent by the legendary Chinese navigator Zheng He.
Six centuries later, the descendants of these Chinese sailors are visible in Lamu where China's ancient Maritime Silk road terminates. In Siyu village,archeologists have discovered artifacts like porcelain and coins that were symbols of the Ming dynasty.
Mwamaka and her family are among the ones who are living testimony of the earliest contacts between Kenya and China.
It was in 2002 that a team of distinguished Kenyan and Chinese researchers carried a DNA analysis on Mwamaka's 63-year-old mother and discovered that she has Chinese genetics.
Soon afterwards,the Chinese government offered Mwamaka a scholarship to study Chinese traditional medicine in China.
Kenyan and Chinese archeologists have been tracing evidence of ancient contacts in the Kenyan coast .They hope to find the the shipwreck to help unearth all artifacts symbolizing ancient cultural and trade ties.
That little girl is gorgeous
Jing Shang extremely gorgeous
a little beauty
Jing Shang says:
"That little girl is gorgeous"

For some reason, mixing races makes very good looking people, no matter what the combinations are.
Just my observation, no scientific proof.
lol
allgoo19
you don't need scientific proof when physical proof is abundant. just my prognosis 😆
Yul Gomez. You are just being ridiculous. She is gorgeous regardless of her race. I can find beauty in every race. Asians are only beautiful to Asians is such a racist comment. I despise you for it.
Why the hell are people so belligerent in the comments, did you even watch the video or understand what its explaining? Its highlighting EARLY CONTACT of Kenyan and Chinese people via shipwrecks and lost sailors which happens all the time. It had nothing to do with the origin of humankind, its simply talking about how some of these Kenyans are descents of lost Chinese sailors.
Thank you!
The internet would be a better place if everyone had high IQ and EQ as you.
Mochi simple ! & thank you !
Great
@Cowworshiper PissDrinkingHindus please make a formal sentence before commenting. No one even knows wtf you are saying. Get it together first.
My favorite part of this story is how people have been the same for millennia.
Shipwrecked crew: "Where are we?"
The captain: "The women here are gorgeous, we're staying!"
That’s all he needed to see lol
Or, "I've been cooped up on that ship for weeks. I'll screw just about anything at this point."
@SaveThem YPepo YaHeard? I mean, yeah pretty racist to just assume the Chinese sailors would find African people ugly, because it sounds like you just assume African people are ugly yourself.
@SaveThem YPepo YaHeard? you know what? It was framed as a joke, so please, explain it. What did gobanito mean by "I'll screw just about anything"? You wanted to defend him and maybe I just don't get the joke, so explain it to me.
@SaveThem YPepo YaHeard? we're waiting on your response.

Race Mixing been happening since humanity
Even with Neanderthals 😂
And little bit before that
Earth ANGEL I'm forever saying this to people. It seems that only you and I are of this opinion. 👍🏿
Race is a social construct. If all humans are from the sme ancestor, it therefore means there was racial sepration before the mixing..The environment has an important role in how the different races evolved.
Race as a an human concept isn't even real, in nature an mankind there's nothing like "race", it's a social construct
That's so cool it makes wonder how often this actually happened through history

It's fake. It's Chinese propaganda. That child was born from a Chinese immigrant who mated with an African woman and then went back to China.
I live in New Zealand but born and raised in Kenya just few hours from that place. That area is full of history, Portuguese ruled that area for 600 years, Arabs were there for centuries and then British colonised it. Chinese came to Kenya before any other Europeans. On my father's side they moved to Kenya from South Africa during Shaka Zulu wars. My mother's side came from middle East. So Kenya Indian ocean due to it's natural harbour and monsoon winds brought in a lot of people from all over the world. Everyone loves it there due to it's people, hospitality and civility. Because our culture it's intertwined with the Muslim teachings and African traditions. And for the case of Indians, they were brought in by the British when Africans refused to work for the colonial masters. Chinese navigators, traders and army generals came and never took even an inch of our native land. Hope this will help.

Siyu is a settlement on the north coast of Pate Island, within the Lamu Archipelago in Kenya's Coast Province. North Coast and North Eastern Kenya are completely different.

i came for this video because the pre-colonial, trans-continental trade routes that existed are of particular interest to me just because i think it's cool (e.g. in my country they found artifacts dating to the 13-14th century that came from west African nations that showed the existence of a thriving trade between asian and african people that dates before colonization) what i did not expect was some full on race war igniting in the comments

The history is what it is. At present china should stay out of Afrika and Afrikan affairs. No neocolonialism.
This is actually very very fascinating and pretty epic. Zhang He 鄭和 was the most famous Chinese naval admiral from the Ming dynasty. He was a powerful court diplomat and also a devote Muslim. He led one of the largest armadas in history with up to 300 capital ships, the largest ones were 400-500 feet long and 160-200 feet wide. They were MASSIVE. Ancient people would see in the distant sea a giant wave of huge white masts slowing arising from the horizon, the Chinese had arrived. Also accompanied essentially by a whole army (30,000 imperial troops, not including workers, officials, and others). His humongous fleet would be consider a "blue water navy" since they sailed all of Asia, to India, to Africa, to North America before Columbus with his tiny ship which was a puny 85 foot long boat with less than 100 personnel.
Had the Chinese acted in the same ways as the Europeans, trying to colonize and use imperialism to subjugate the locals, the whole world would be speaking Chinese today. But China was only interested in trade and making friends.
Nope.. Chinese the yuan dynasty tried to conquer Japan but failed, japanese kamikaze divine wind stop the Chinese. Then Chinese send navy and army to java island in Indonesia, but they got routed by Javanese king raden wijaya. China only succeed conquering Vietnam, but fail in Japan and south east Asia. Because of this failure, the Chinese only send trading teams not army. So the Chinese didn't conquer south east Asia because they fail. Now the Chinese also claim natuna island clashing with Indonesia, Malaysia, phillipine. And Cheng ho is an eunuch

@@eduardadhi110 LOL Yuan dynasty was mongolia empire ruled by Kublai Khan the grandson of Genghis Khan when they tried to invade Japan. Your history is novice at best.
@@NicolasD414 you all must re learn the lesson. Mongol came as conqueror with armies. But the Chinese conquered mongol with their culture. The mongol temujin and kubilai when ascend as emperor, they like Chinese culture, Chinese writing. They started to learn Chinese letters. They become one with china. They don't want to see themselves as goat herders in Savannah no more. They want to be cultured with dynasties, Chinese writing etc. China eat mongol up culturally. So it's yuan now
Unlike the Arabs, the Chinese treated the local people with dignity. The Arabs organized a hideous system of slave trading where Lamu among other places were at the forefront in East African and native Africans the victims.
Arab were Brown skin darker than chinese
@Lemon Boy Islam never forbade the taking of slaves. It forbids the taking of Muslims and Jews for slaves. Go read about The Sokoto Caliphate and the Bornu empire. Both were past Islamic empires in the area known as Nigeria today. The fought with each other and took themselves as prisoners of war which were later sold off as slaves. Both also played a big role in both the Trans Saharan and Trans Atlantic Slave Trade by raiding and devastating a lot of pagan communities inhabitated by other indeginious Africans. Stop trying to cover the role Islam played in destroying Africa. In Mauretania, Sudan and Lybia, slavery is still going on.
true they made East Africa slave and Islam before it was free
@@maverick7874 no not in Sudan
@Lemon Boy what are you talking about? the Arabs were Muslims when they arrived in Africa and they spread Islam by the sword lmfao.
It's can be a true story though. There is some Jew bloodline in central China two. The world is just a mixing pot with people moving everywhere to find a good place to live.
Yes Bagdadis jews that settled in China that mixed with chinese local people ...

Kaifeng in mainland China springs to mind.
Jewish & Chinese are settle around the world for the same reasons: political & economical issuess.
Yeah that's pretty interesting too. Apparently during WW2 many jewish families landed in Shanghai as refugees. Also in Mexico there are a lot of people from Arabic descent, some signature dishes were also born from the mix of these cultures. Lots of these stories all around. Pretty fascinating.
@@googlea2692 there is you racist
I can't believe how ignorant and abominable many of the comments here are...The expedition to East Africa of General Zheng He is a historical fact - whether some people like or not. The Chinese Fleet was the largest and most advanced of the 15th century. If those voyages had been for the conquest of territories, history would have taken a different turn. We would now talk about the Chinese empire and not the British empire...But instead, the fleet was given up and China isolated itself from the the rest of the world - until European invaders tore it apart! The seven voyages undertaken were for establishing trade routes ...trade of goods not primarily or exclusively for the trade of people. This report does not deny any previous connection between Africa and Asia. Neither are Chinese who lived 600 years ago under a monarchy , responsible for what the Chinese government does in Africa or elsewhere today! Many here, are obviously not aware, Europe and North America are still in Africa doing dirty business just as much as during the colonial days! Better to deal with someone who honestly admits he does not like me but my resources than with someone who claims who only wants to offer me "love", "democracy" and the "true faith" bs ...so keep on raging about the Chinese evil while Europe prepares pipelining African solar energy for European electricity supply, The US ignoring human rights violation in equatorial-Guinea for the petrol monopol and so on ...and keep on overlooking the evil of self-imposed, megalomaniac African heads of states and governments who care as much for their citizens suffering as they care for flies... Botswana exempt - no need to get enraged about a video you don't think is worth watching!

I always knew this. I’m African-American, but people thought I was Asian when I was younger. Now they think I’m half. There are Asian people that look Black too.
It could also be that during slavery some people were taken that were of Khoisan decent and Khoisan people usually have stereotypical East Asian eyes
Yeah, to echo what was already said... There are Africans that have similar eyes and have no direct connection to China, particularly in Southern Africa.
Yes my mom has very slanted eyes plus she is lightskin so people always ask her if she is Asian. I also have almond shaped eyes so it's interesting.
Black is not a race. Anyone can be black depending on their environment.
Im african, not black
There was constant vibration between the African and Asian continent.
This is not new. China and African countries have been conducting trading form ancient times, long before European colonizers. Africans have been traveling to Asia even since the time of Nimrod (the son of Cush). As a matter of fact check out the LUO people (a niolitic ethnic group) of Kenya and Tanzania. The name LUO IS AFRICAN AND CHINESE, THIS SHOWS CONNECTION BETWEEN THEM. SOME OF CHINAS ANCIENT DYNASTY HAD ROYAL AFRICAN BLOOD. THE LUO STATE IN CHINA IS PROOF OF THIS ROYAL BLOOD MIX/UNION. Now LUO is considered a minor Chinese feudal state, that existed from the shang dynasty. The ancient Rulers of LUO shared common origin with the kings of Chu.

I heard of this story before. Its pretty amazing to have genetic proof of the connection.
Admiral Zheng He (I think it's pronounced Chung Ho) led a fleet of 300 ships. He was a Chinese Muslim and sailed to Africa, and possibly Americas more than 70 years before Columbus came in. He was a peaceful man and didn't hurt the locals, anywhere - which he could do only so easily, leading a crew of nearly 3,000 sailors.
May be, some of his Muslim sailors got married to the local Africans.

I will just leave a piece of information of what an elder from China told me:
It started with Qin Shi Huang (Chinese Emperor from the Qin Dynasty) he he sent Xu Fu (a member from the court) to seek the elixir of life- and during his second voyage he sail out with hundreds of people which include sailors, maid, soldiers and etc, but they never returned. I assume some of them landend in unknown land, perhaps Africa. For instance in central America a place called Chiriqui, you can see chinese traits in the natives people.
How can you tell? Aren’t Native Americans originally from Siberia, Central Asia, and Northeast Asia?
Masha’Allah! Love all my brothers and sisters, your Arab sister
Cool story. They saved the Chinese sailors from certain death, married, changed cultures and lived.

Awesome.

There's also some Chinese history and gene traces at Mambrui, North Coast of Kenya, a few KMS from Malindi

Bullshit. Theres literally zero proof. The only people originating from Africa are the current peoples widely referred to as "negroes." We are Africa's only true sons and daughters.
Actually it's not clear which part of Africa humans emerged due to different early human bones scattered all over the continent, like the Jebel Irhoud specimen. We just know that our origins were somewhere around East Africa, not specifically Kenya or possibly southern Africa or North Africa.
Plus, saying "Chinese and white people are also Africans!" is not exactly accurate. The way non-Africans look today along with their genes evolved for thousands of years in their respective regions outside Africa. They are different from their far distant African ancestors and have changed quite a bit.
@@boogsybrooks Zero proof? Lol 😂😂
@@pureone8350 if it is true all people came from Africa then what are we?

This is the most beautiful story i heard in years ..
That little girl has a modeling career, she is gorgeous!!!
One Love...
You can see the Chinese DNA in some of their features too 😁 I love history, furthermore Black/Asian history. Proud to come from 2 vibrant and colorful groups of people!
Kenya's coastal region had great trading and cultural relations with the middle east and far east.
True, West Africa and East African empires both had great connections backing to 5BC, East Africa often helped with trading goods from West Africa because of their coast lines and ports!
Race is a fact of life and it's just beautiful.There is one race and it's called the Human race!Love you all people!!
undercover racist
LMAOOOO gurl- btw I love blackswan my bias is judy
Race is a myth
@Robett Baisagale
Race is a fact of life
And it's just beautiful.
There is one race
And it's called the human race.........
So, there are races?
Or is it just one race??
She is beautiful because of her race?
But there is just one race, So why does her race make her beautiful?
Have you ever heard of logica at all?
I thought it was a full documentary. I was still adding salt to my popcorn when this ended. Any other links?
So pleased to know this. There so many prejudice in this world when we are one.
Wow!! The things we’re learn about ourselves and our history everyday.......simple fascinating.
🌼 To trúly learn about yourself, study the word of God, as it is the only place you will discover truth .. Truth that will set you free (of who Gód is, and you). Col 1:26,27 Gal 3:28 🙏
@@elmarieking9590 We can’t learn anything about ourselves outside of the Bible? Any history pertaining to humanity outside of the Bible is not valid? I don’t know what it is about my simple statement that made you assume that I don’t know the Lord.
That little girl is so cute. I wounder how the world would be like over the years once everyone genetics have been mixed.
boring.
Then people who aren’t mixed would be ‘exotic’
Read about Zheng He, a Chinese explorer in the 1400s.
When China was the most powerful country and has the most powerful navy on earth, with ships many time bigger Christopher Columbus. They travelled from China all the way to Africa and trade with respect and make friends. When the Western European finally grew powerful enough , the first things they do to other............
Not sure how this video got recommended in 2021 but guess maybe because I love historical facts about my home country of Kenya even though I don't live down there anymore.
Next China's gonna claim that kenya is part of chinese historic territories and thus part of China's exclusive economic zone 🙄
Stfu
Hey, the guy looks like he's like to reenact the marriage part with the reporter LOL
cool info!
My great grandfather's grandfather was a Chinese taylor that immigrated to Cuba and married a Cuban woman.
A simple, interesting and endearing story showing the beauty of human relationship. Shame on the negative comments showing the ugliness of some humans.
Neocolonialism makes china suspect and unwelcome.
I have heard anecdotal mention of similar settlement and integration of Chinese bloodlines further down the coast in Mozambique. I wonder if researchers have looked as far down south?
This is an interesting story. It reminds me of the Metis people where I live. Thank you for sharing.
This is wonderful 👏
Comment section: Afrocentrists vs. Sinocentrists
And white supremacists
The Chinese were doing experiments on the Africans. Why take the DNA samples smh
@@Dan_Therapist Are you stupid? How do you conduct a DNA ancestry test without taking DNA?
@@randomthot125 They take you spit you stupid fool.
Africa should help the African people who are known as siddis in India
It turned out to be a beautiful and perfect mix. Why not?
This is funny. Treat Africans like crap in China but comes to Africa and say “look we are related “ . This is why they think we are stoopid
Stop the victimization! All chinese aren't the same and all africans neither. We are talking about an historic fact, not politics
@@mikailm6934 stfu, they doing this bullshit so that they can claim thier lands
When i say i had Goosebumps looking at the little girl... She's GORGEOUS
I'm from Kenya and I just found this out. I'm mind blown! Kumbe hii story ya wachinese haijaanza juzi😂😂

Wow thats beautiful. A connection of culture producing beautiful children. God bless.
This story is one reason that I follow Kenyan history so keenly.
It really goes against the picture Europeans try to paint of nothing going on in Africa! It’s like once you really start to look at the actual history then that whitewashing comes off!
This explains my 10% Asian dna
I can't help but thinking this is Chinese propaganda, to make the Chinese take over of Africa more acceptable.
Open an history book before speaking about politics please. The eastern coast of Africa had exchanges with Arabia , India and eastern Asia. Some africans even went these places
I'm sick but the comment about "how the guy was looking at the journalist," took me out🤣🤣😂😂
Well , As a Sinhalese and also a Sri Lankan I am really Happy , That Because We have more Close Relationships through Silk Road.. On the Other Hand Active Member Countries of Ancient Silk Roads Were Pioneers of Globalization !!!!!

First humans were from africa
That's so cool. I think mixed genetics are so awesome. The little girl is a beauty.
"Pure" genetics aren't ? 🤨
In Kenya, the absolute majority of the population is Christians - 83%! And Muslims in Kenya are only 11%!
the little girl is such a click bait
That is beautiful. The human family is mysterious.
China boutta take claim 🤣🤣
Thank you,
beautiful peice of history
Wow that’s so awesome but now Chinese people in Kenya are opening restaurants that black people are not allowed in after sundown😩
Where'd you see that?
Yikes
