Neolithic Hongshan Culture 4700 to 2900 BCE

I'm just going to do a summary post on all these Hongshan artworks here. Hongshan seems to have artwork depicting both Caucasoid and Mongoloid people. One of them has large, deep-set blue jade eyes and doesn't look anything like modern day Chinese people. However, there are also a lot of figures that do look like modern day Chinese people. It would seem there was a variety of different people living in the area. There are also a large variety of depictions of dragons and what appear to be dragon-human hybrids, as well as dragon embryos. Some statues appear to show mating between humans and dragons or other creatures. It's possible these statues tell stories of humans claiming to be descended from dragons. See my other Hongshan post (Dragon of the Hongshan Culture 4500-3000 BCE) for more info on genetic curiosities.
