Was Chinese Emperor Tang of Shang black?

Answer 1

there is ZERO evidence. the afrocentrists have no clue what they are saying because they cant read Chinese.

claimed Huangdi (Yellow Emperor)'s name was Hu Nak Kinte. No Chinese sources ever stated that.

claimed that the skeleton of Qin Shihuang in his tomb resembled a Black. The fact is his tomb was never even opened. And they're not planning to open it in the next 5 decades or so.

claimed that the character 玄 Xuan and 黎 Li mean "Black", when in fact, they don't.

there is however historical references to negritos (pygmies in Taiwan). they were called black dwarves. I have read those websites, they seem exaggerated. HOWEVER! It is undeniable that Australoids inhabited East Asia long before the yellow people ever got there. New Guinea has something like 750 nationalities, because they went there from all over Asia, where they originally lived before they were driven south and east by arriving Austrics from the west. I'm sure Xuanyuan was Tibetan, no doubt, but at least some of the Dongyi in Shandong and Jiangsu were very dark if not black. They undoubtedly had Australoid blood, and looked like very dark Hmongs. The Longshan culture looked like this too before the Tibetans and Koreans got there and mingled. Since Tang and his Shang people were Dongyi, I see no stretch in supposing that they were darker in some degree than their Huaxia brethren. Tang's clan totem was the Blackbird, which denoted Australoids in ancient China.
