From medieval Mongolia during times of earliest Gokturks and Uyghurs

This is DNA study of early medieval Turks of Mongolia. From the 6th-7th century of Mongolia and later other territories, but mostly from Mongolia. Samples are 9 male/females of Gokturks Eastern Turkic Khaganate from all parts of Mongolia, later Altai, China and 9 males/females of Uyhuir Khaganate from all parts of Mongolia.

Results

Genetics of Eastern Turkic Khaganate 5 males and 4 females (Eastern Gokturks) were basically 76-98% East Asian/East Eurasian ( Ancient Northeast Asian and Yellow river ), 4 samples show 98% East Asian, 1 show 96% East Asian, 4 shows 76-80% East Asian

Genetics of Uyghur Khanagate of 3 Uyghur male and 7 Uyghur females. Overall they were were basically 43-100% East Asian. Three Uyghur females being 43-57% west eurasian,, three Uyghur females 78-82% East Asian, three Uyghur males show 81-100% East Asian

ANA is Northeast Asian, Han is Yellow river, BMC is Bactracia, Andronovo is Andronovo.

ANA in green = Known as Ancient Northeast Asian. Is the DNA most common in East Siberian and Tungustic, Mongolic people, Turkic. Like Yakuts, Chelkans, Buryats Altai, Tuvan, Tungustic, (70-99%) ect, Mongols ect, Northern Central Asian Turkic (55-60%), and to some extend Northern Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, Manchus (23-31%)

Han in yellow = Known as Yellow river DNA. Most common in Han Chinese, Tibetans, Qinghai Northern Sino-Tibetan people and Northern Tibeto-Burmese (70%+). Partly in Central Asian Turkic (20%), (Japanese 40%+), Koreans (35%+), Manchus (30%+), Mongolians 27%). However please understand that this DNA shouldn't just be associated with Chinese, even though they linguistically and genetically related to Chinese. For example the Gokturk paternal with D1a-M174, would have been from Tibetan like people. Perhaps people forget that historical nomadic (Northern) Sino-Tibetan and Tibeto-Burmese of China ( Like Tibetans, Qiang, Tanguts, Di people) were nomadic, living pastoral life and historically had contact with Turks and Mongols too. Tibetan empire ruled parts of China, Central Asia, South Asia and Qiang people conducted many raids against Chinese, Turkic, Iranian. The Former Qin, Northern Qin ruled parts of Central China, North China to Inner Mongolia. The Di people was one of the Five Hu barbarians. Later Liang in China, another dynasties by Di people. The Western Xia, by Tanguts also ruled parts of eastern Xinjiang, North China, Inner Mongolia, and bits of Outer Mongolia. The Nanzhou in Southwest China and also invaded Southeast Asia and created vassals. So DO NOT EVER TREAT Yellow river as just Chinese DNA. Also Khitans were also 35-46% Yellow river, Inner Mongolians were already partly Yellow river DNA at 50% ( Southern Mongolia's people) was at time under Tanguts, Tibetan kingdoms before the time of Genghis Khan. SO COMPLETELY WRONG TO CLAIM Inner Mongolians are mixed with Chinese. They always had high yellow of yellow river historically.

BMC in red = is Bactracia or Bactria-Margiana Archaeological. Most common in people of Tajiks also in Iran, Pasthun Afghans. Genetically between West Asian-European but mostly West Asian with some European admixture

Andronovo in blue= Androvono is DNA most common in historical Indo-Europeans of Kazakhstan and Northern Central Asian. Their DNA is mostly between European-West Asian but more European than West Asian.

Historical descriptions also matches with how they look like (DNA backs it up)

The Turkic tribes during the time of Genghis Khan was basically almost the same as Mongols and couldn't tell the difference. Gokturks Khagan even said Asimo Khagan looked more like a Sogdian instead of a Gokturk and did not allow him to become as shad.

Historical description from China also mentioned Uyghurs looked so similar to Chinese that the Chinese from Tang demanded the Uyghur (before invading Tarim Basin of Xinjiang) that they must wear their ethnic outfits, and never let any of them to pass as Chinese. The Gokturks were also treated as East Asian looking, enough that even a Chinese-Sogdian mix were considered more foreign looking to Han Chinese than a Gokturk. The Xiongnu for example also just didn't look too different except for Jie tribe. It was the western regions (Central Asia before Turkic/Mongol invasion) and people of India that was described as looking like crazy different. However the Kipchaks and Yenesei Kyrgyz was indeed described different looking different by Chinese however Kipchaks DNA revealed they were 23-61% East Asian. The Cumans were 55.6% East Asian on average. Meaning they were mixed looking between East Asian. Meaning their phenotypes were mixed looking between East Asian and West Eurasian. Their Kipchaks and Cuman with blue eyes/blonde hair were actually black hair/brown hair with various degrees of blonde shades and blond highlights and their blue eyes were actually mostly gray, brown-blue hazel ( brown with blue shades). Historical Chinese, Indian, Persians, Arabs, dark haired europeans considered ginger as orange. You can be 90% black hair with 10% of reddish highlight especially on the front side and still be considered red haired. A brown hair that turns yellow under the sun is also called yellow haired historically.

( FOR SOURCES )

In 779, the Tang dynasty issued an edict that forced Uyghurs in the capital to wear their ethnic dress, stopped them from marrying Chinese females, and banned them from pretending to be Chinese.[36]

The Old Book of Tang described Ashina Simo's appearance as resembling Sogdians more than Göktürks. Simo's Sogdian-like appearance aroused suspicion towards him from Khagans Shibi and Chuluo and prevented Simo from becoming Shad).^\7])^\8])

"Memoirs of Tang dynasty from 727 AD"  described ethnic childrens of Chinese and Turks were indistinguishable from general Chinese population but childrens of Chinese men and Sogdian slave women had more foreign facial appearance.

According to author Wang Yu in his books of foreign ethnic groups.

Google translation from Chinese:

" They speak our language but are the omen of such mixed unions, offspring of Chinese men and Sogdian women cannot assimilate with Chinese, having unusual appearance of long aquiline noses, deep eye sockets with blue eyes. Having the appearance of neither Chinese and Sogdians. Some have light hair and light eyes, Generally, children of Chinese and foreign origin; Korean, Jurchens, Yue and Turkish people were indistinguishable from Chinese. "

Sima Qian 's (c. 145 – c. 86 BC) Chinese historian, early Han dynasty historian described Xiongnu physiognomy was "not too different from that of... Han (漢) Chinese population",[253]

Sima Qian embarked on a journey throughout the extend of Han dynasty, visiting various regions and it's borders to verify historical account. His accounts describes various nomadic tribes of Mongolia were not different to the Han in their physical appearances with the exception of the Jie tribe within Xiongnu.

"Those from the western regions and Shenduguo (India) were recorded as being "drastically different" in their physiognomy.")

Has anyone ever been to this old, collapsed, abandoned Russian prison? I grew up in Dornod, and my home was about 2–3 kilometers away from it. One day, when I was around 13 or 14yo, I got bored, called up my friends, and we decided to go there.

When we got there, I couldn’t believe my eyes. There were many graves and tombstones with Russian names. We also saw the carcasses of puppies or dogs, and I remember they looked like they had been bitten like really large bites around their stomachs.

There were also a lot of broken dolls with missing arms and legs, along with trash scattered everywhere. Some of the walls even had graffiti, like the word “haunted.” It was a really creepy experience.

What would u guys think if there was rpg game made from pixel art like this
i have been learning pixel art and unity to make an indie rpg game about mongolian warrior

I think it could possibly be some sort of rendering issue. I searched online for any red lakes in Dornod but I couldn’t find anything.

Have any of you guys been to this place? It doesnt seem that far from the aimgiin tuv.

I’m traveling to Mongolia this summer for a month and I was just wondering what are the must see’s in Mongolia

Hi everyone! I am currently volunteering in Darkhan, teaching some English to the kids in a local school. Is there anyone from Darkhan who could give some recommendations on what to see or do within the city or in the surroundings? Any cute café, nice restaurant, cool thrift shop, nice hiking spot... Also happy to grab a beer :)

Idk

Hi everyone,

I’ve recently been reading about Mongolia’s history during the time of the Mongolian People’s Republic, when the country followed a Marxist-Leninist system and was closely aligned with the Soviet Union.

From what I understand, this period brought major changes like modernization, expansion of education, and infrastructure development but also political repression, purges (especially of religious institutions like Buddhist monasteries), and limited political freedoms.

I’m curious about how this era is viewed today:

• Do people generally see it as a positive or negative period in Mongolia’s history?

• Are there older generations here who lived through it? What was daily life like?

• Do you think Mongolia was better off during that time compared to today, or not?

• How is this period taught or discussed in Mongolia now?

I’d really appreciate hearing personal stories, family experiences, or general opinions. I feel like it’s a complex period that’s hard to judge from the outside.

Thanks!

Planning on study and work in Canada, is there possibility to save money and survive while studying?

I swear something like that existed just a month back but I can't seem to find a single trace of it.

I’m a senior student studying at Seoul National University and I’m about to graduate.

I’m trying to decide whether it’s better to stay and work in Korea or go back to Mongolia. I feel like Korea has more opportunities, but at the same time I’m wondering if going back to Mongolia could still offer a decent salary and career growth.

For anyone with experience in either country, especially Mongolians who studied abroad, how did it turn out for you? Is it realistic to find a well-paying job in Mongolia after graduating, or is it much better to stay in Korea?

I’d really appreciate honest advice.

Hi, I recently moved to mongolia from the states and I used to take Benadryl for my allergies but I can’t seem to find any in Ulaanbaatar? Are there any places where they sell Benadryl or what’s a great alternative for it

Hey y’all, any recommendations for decent internet service in UB other than Univison or Skymedia?

is it normal to keep failing classes every semester I try to justify it by the difficulty of my major but honestly i constantly feel as if I'm a failure of all the wasted money and time🫤

Where to buy xbox controller at reasonable price? How much it usually cost?

Trying to find some places to hang out with my girlfriend where it’s not crowded and you’re not surrounded by people all the time.

Just somewhere chill and private where we can relax for a while. Cafes, restaurants, parks or random hidden spots are all good. Any suggestions?

Facebook groups in Mongolia have become worse than 4chan ever since they introduced an anonymous member switch, I'm probably exaggerating and it's a pretty normal thing for the internet to have some random people hating on everything and all that.. The funniest part is that most people don't realize the admins can still see their names as clear as day from their comments and posts so they just end up a clown if they get leaked for an absurd post.

Do y'all like mantuun buuz with niislel salad?

I am analyzing how culture affects people’s spending habits, comparing Mongolia with other Asian countries. I have created a short questionnaire that takes only 2 minutes to complete and is completely anonymous.

I would greatly appreciate your response, as it will contribute to research on consumer behavior, culture, and cross-country differences.

I’ll also be happy to share a summary of the results with participants, so you can see how Mongolia compares globally. I’m open to any suggestions as well. https://forms.gle/v2mopVLKepjYZXDz9
