In fact, in the 10 century, the average height of the British people was a few centimeters lower than that of China people at that time.
It is not clear whether it was common among westerners at that time.
The height of China people is inherited from the ancient Han nationality, and the origin of the ancient Han nationality has always been a mystery.
Genes may not reach 70\%, like Guangdong may not reach 50%.
It is difficult to know exactly what the pure ancient Han nationality looked like from the few paintings left behind.
The biggest, most comprehensive and most authentic is the face of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses and people in some parts of Jiangsu today.
There are great similarities, but the physical characteristics are similar to those of Shaanxi people.
The most puzzling thing about the Terracotta Warriors is that the average height is about 1.83 meters except shoes and crowns.
It's not uncommon for ordinary figurines to be 1.90 meters high. Qin figurines are basically copied according to a certain unit in Qin Jun.
It is hard to imagine that the Qin army will specially select more than 65438+100000 youths to form an army.
It seems that the average height of Qin people is 1.80 meters, which is the same as that of westerners today.
At that time, there was no doubt that the height of Qin people or ancient Han people was the highest in the world.
The reason for the decline in height of Han nationality should be the combined effect of mixed blood and nutrition.
In addition, the height of ancient Han people that Han people today can't believe shows that in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties,
Because the land is vast and sparsely populated, the climate is mild (at that time, the climate in the north was as mild as that in Guangdong on the Loess Plateau today)
And the strong national strength, the nutritional status of the Han nationality far exceeds the future.
Just like the change of modern nutrition, the Japanese increased the height of 100 cm in100 years.
Driven by the stability of the Western Zhou Dynasty for hundreds of years and the long-term policy of enriching Qiang Bing in the Spring and Autumn Period,
The average height of people has improved, at least in the most powerful and richest state of Qin.
The average height of the people exceeds the average height achieved by the long-term nutritional improvement of modern westerners.
Looking back and facing up to this history today is really touching!
Qin Shihuang1.98m is not isolated. Historically, the nutrition of China people actually declined with the national luck.
I feel good about myself after being conquered many times by foreigners who are no better than Xiongnu.
Even the history of proud alien conquest, nutrition and height are directly related to the quality of the nation.
The increase of modern people's height has a great influence on history.
Compensation for chronic malnutrition will stop when it reaches a certain level.
1.85 meters (8 feet) above are too many ancient Han celebrities, and there are also 2 meters long literati. Let me give you a few examples:
Emperor gaozu was seven feet eight inches long, 1.80 meters.
Korean king Han Xin is the illegitimate child of Han Xiangwang. He is eight feet five inches tall, 1.94 meters.
Li Chiqi is eight feet tall.
Dong Fangshuo wrote a long article introducing himself, saying that he/kloc-studied at the age of 0/3, and/kloc-went on strike at the age of 0/5.
Jane, 16-year-old poet, recites 220,000 words every day, 19-year-old is good at the art of war, 22-year-old is 9 feet 3.2 meters tall.
Zhang Song is five feet 1 m 1 Cao Cao is a famous dwarf seven feet 1.6 1 m long.
Guan Yu is nine and a half feet }^0O.
Cheng Yudong, a famous counselor, is also from East Albania. Eight feet three inches long 1.9 meters
Juwu Bagao 1.3 meters, the highest recorded in history.
Mink is over eight feet long.
Zhao Yi is nine feet (two meters) long, with fine features and great looks. (Biography of Wen Yuan? Zhao Yi ")
Liu Biao is more than eight feet long ("The History of the Three Kingdoms, Volume 6, Liu Biao Biography")
Guan Ning is eight feet long and has a handsome man. (Biography of Guan Ning)
He Kui is eight feet three inches long, 1.90 meters, and his appearance is very rigorous. (He Kuichuan)
He is eight feet five inches long,1.94m (Pei Songzhi quoted from Huaqiang's Hanshu).
Zhuge Liang is eight feet long, and every time he compares himself with Guan Zhong and Le Yi, he is incomparable. (Biography of Zhuge Liang)
There are still many ancient books.
Cao Cao was not particularly short in China in the 1950s, but he was almost a dwarf at that time.
Even embarrassed to meet the Xiongnu envoys.
There has only been one modern celebrity for hundreds of years, much less than in the Three Kingdoms period ~
There is no doubt that the ancients were taller than modern people. Generally speaking, the height of a very excellent scholar.
Not much taller than ordinary people. During the Three Kingdoms period, the heights of great literati such as Zhuge Liang, Liu Biao and Guan Ning were common.
At 8 feet (1.85 meters), it is very telling!
I hope it works for you! !
