In ancient China, there was a popular view that Huns were descendants of Xia Houshi. Now it seems that this is a bit problematic. The original description of this person is Sima Qian's biography of Xiongnu, which says:
"Xiongnu, a Miao merchant in Xia Houshi and the ancestor of Xiongnu, is also called Chunwei."
Ban Gu's Biography of Xiongnu in Han Shu inherited his statement without any change. Sima, the history department of Tang Dynasty, claimed to be a dangerous move:
"Xia Jie had no choice but to put the soup and die in three years." China, his wife's concubine, smoked porridge, took refuge in Beitian, moved with the livestock, and became the Xiongnu. Le Yan's statement here is consistent with Sima Qian's statement, but it does not directly refer to the pure taste as smoked porridge. Otherwise, the Huns are descendants of Xia Houshi and have no right to say so. However, the historical records of the five emperors said that the meat porridge was chased by the Yellow Emperor: the Huns said that there was "meat porridge in the north" above Tang Yu. Mencius called it "King Tai porridge". There is no clear arrow on the time of smoked porridge in various historical books, and there is no reliable collateral proof that smoked porridge is the son of Xia Jie. It is groundless to say that Huns are descendants of Miao people in Xia Houshi.
Huns are not Iranians or Caucasians. The following passage is from Wang Guowei's Continued Examination of the West Lake, which is profound and grand, not only for the West Lake, but also for the Xiongnu, who was named Hu in ancient times. Although there is no discipline on the appearance of Xiongnu in the two books, Hu is a southern Xiongnu in the Jin Dynasty. In the Book of Jin, Shi Jilong wrote a cloud. Prince Zhan Sunzhen asked Cui Yue, the lieutenant,' Where can I be cured if I take the exam? "Su Yue's script says,' You can recover from drowning. Jane said, "My eyes are comforting". She said,' Your eyes are wandering, and you are suffering from drowning. Jane won't tell Xuan Shi. In Zi Xuan, the most Hu eyes are deep. When they heard it, they flew into a rage and killed their father and son. There was another cloud, and Ranwai bowed, attracting Zhao people to arrogance. Men, women and children were beheaded, and more than 200,000 people died. Hu didn't know much about other parts of Xiongnu, but its shape was as high as the West Lake, so the ancient Xiongnu Gai can be known. "The king's thesis is that both Xiongnu and West Hutong are ambitious; Moreover, as another part of the Huns, Yun has a high nose and a long beard, which is no different from the West Lake. Nu Wa, the ancient word of Sanbieyun, should also be regarded as a high nose. But this judgment is wrong and does not conform to historical facts. We can understand it from two aspects: When Xiongnu ruled the Western Regions or Zhi Zhi Khan ruled Kangju, the Hu people in West Lake existed as different parts of Xiongnu. It is this affiliation that makes the Book of Jin Xelecai "the head of Xiongnu's customs and Qiang's canal". But at that time, the Huns were Huns and the Hu people were Hu people, and the two could not be confused. Fu Yun, Records of the Western Regions in Hanshu: "From the west of Dawan to the rest map, everyone is in Luanhe River. "The conference semifinals' comfort zone is in the west of Dawan, so the Xiongnu in Mongolian grassland has no deep eyes and high nose. In Xingping County, west of Xi City, Shaanxi Province, there is a tomb of Huo Qubing. Huo Qubing was a general in the Han Dynasty, and was the title of a general in ancient times. Next to it is a stone carving of "thinking of Xiongnu". A Xiongnu soldier lies on his back in front of the horse, holding a bow and arrow. Although his head is covered with eyebrows, his eyes are not deep and his nose is not high, and he does not have the characteristics of the Iranian national image in the ancient western regions. On the contrary, two of the stone statues have prominent foreheads, high foreheads and small eyes, which are the images of Mongolians.
