Focus on Greek investment immigration and listen to stories about Greece: "Ancient Greece was known as 'Daxia,' and 'Xia' is the phonetic reading of 'Greece'; our country also had the Xia Dynasty in ancient times. Yu the Great traveled overseas for flood control, reaching ancient Egypt and Greece. Greece became his family's fiefdom, and 'Crete' in the sea south of Greece is the ancient phonetic sound of his son 'Xia Qikai.' Qi returned to the East to ascend the throne and establish the Xia Dynasty, while the descendants of Xia Qikai who remained in Greece carried forward the chieftain council system of the tribal alliance established during the era of Yao and Shun, which became the prototype for the later Western democratic parliamentary system, thus making ancient Greece the source of Western civilization." This was stated on November 4th by the renowned scholar Liu Bo, author of "Origin: An Investigation into the Chinese Roots of Human Civilization," at a themed salon titled "Drumming and Calling for the 'Ten Thousand Years'," hosted by Datong Thought Network.
The Greeks are Chinese people, and the ancient Romans were also Chinese.
The Greeks are Chinese, and Greek civilization was created by the Chinese (yellow race). In today's world, where the "theory of Western civilization as the center" is widespread, and in a contemporary China where one "must speak of Greece" and the West, is this a fantasy?
In Liu Bo's view, not only that, but the ancient Romans were also Chinese, and their civilization was established by the Chinese; the fact that Rome was called "Daqin" (Great Qin) shares the same historical origin as calling ancient Greece "Daxia." The "Book of the Later Han: Records of the Western Regions" states: "Its people are all tall and upright, resembling the Chinese, hence it is called Daqin." This means that the ancient Romans had rectangular, upright Chinese faces, just like the Chinese, which actually reveals that the founders of Rome were, in fact, Chinese.
Liu Bo explains that Zhuanxu fathered Daye, Daye fathered Gaoyao, and Gaoyao fathered Boyi; Boyi was also a wise minister in the era of Yu the Great. Qin Shi Huang, whose surname was Ying and given name Zheng, was a descendant of the ancient Emperor Zhuanxu. The "Xing Zuan" (Compendium of Surnames) researches the Qin surname: "After the Ying surname of Zhuanxu, the descendant of Boyi, Feizi, was enfeoffed by King Xiao of Zhou at Qin, which is Qin-ting in Longxi. By the time the First Emperor滅 extinguished the six states and Ziying surrendered to the Han, his descendants took the state as their clan name." When the family of Yu the Great returned to the East, the family of Boyi was left behind to continue operations in the West; the descendants of Boyi, having inherited the Greek civilization, began the Roman civilization. Therefore, it is reasonable for the founders of the Qin state to refer to the Roman Empire—the foundation established by their ancestors in the Mediterranean—as Daqin.
Humanity originated in China; human civilization originated in China.
In world history textbooks, it is generally believed that humanity originated in Africa, and the earliest human civilization was the Sumerian civilization 6,000 years ago. However, in "Origin: An Investigation into the Chinese Roots of Human Civilization," Liu Bo overturns this conclusion, arguing:
First, humanity originated in China. The supporting evidence primarily consists of some higher primate fossils discovered in China in recent years, such as the 55-million-year-old Asian Catopithecus found in Hengdong County, Hunan, and the 45-million-year-old Eosimias sinensis found in Liyang Shanghuang, Jiangsu, which frontally attacks the Western "African origin theory of humanity."
Second, human civilization originated in China. The supporting evidence primarily consists of several prehistoric human civilization sites discovered in China in recent years, such as the Yuchanyan site in Daoxian, Hunan, dating back 22,500–18,500 years. It is the site of the earliest human agricultural civilization and is where the earliest cultivated rice, pottery, and artificial textiles were discovered. This is ten thousand years earlier than Western theories of the origin of human civilization.
Furthermore, the ancestors of China were the first to discover "the world" and described the entire globe, with supporting evidence mainly found in the ancient legendary system represented by the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" (Shan Hai Jing) and relics similar to Chinese civilization found all over the world.
Humanity and human civilization both originated in China. The logical starting point is that the uplift of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in Eurasia created conditions for apes to evolve into humans as they moved from forests to hills and plains, while the climate and geography near 30 degrees north latitude were most suitable for human settlement and the birth of civilization. Thus, the four great ancient civilizations of Sumer, Egypt, India, and China were all born near 30 degrees north latitude. Through archaeological discovery, these four ancient civilizations were basically created by yellow people; they shared common (pictographic) scripts and embodied some common values, while ancient Greek and Roman civilizations were merely new integrations and developments of Sumerian and Egyptian civilizations in the Mediterranean basin.
Fuxi, Shennong, and Yandi belonged to the era of China's global unification of the Great Nine Provinces.
Liu Bo also believes that in ancient times, humanity had a globally unified "Great Harmony Society": the era of Fuxi, Shennong, and Yandi was the era of China's global unification of the Great Nine Provinces. "Abdication and republicanism," valuing faith and cultivating harmony, as well as shared language and values, were the basic features of that era. It was only after the Yellow Emperor entered the Central Plains that various parts of the world began to develop independently, languages became varied, states were established, and conflicts were constant, as humanity entered the era of the Small Nine Provinces in world, including Chinese, history.
As for the links between ancient Greek civilization and Chinese civilization, archaeological discoveries show that the humans depicted in murals at Greek sites do not look much like modern Europeans, but rather like the Chinese yellow race. A clay figurine of a witch "holding a green snake in the right hand and a red snake in the left hand," as recorded in the "Classic of Regions Beyond the Seas (Western)," was discovered in an ancient Greek cave. The witch's attire is gorgeous and brightly colored, with a long skirt, wide sleeves, a vest, and a high hat—lifelike and similar to the clothing of the Chu people. Some artifacts reflected in murals and reliefs on ancient buildings also show similarities to artifacts unearthed in China, such as the Shang Dynasty's Four-Ram Square Hu.
Although modern Europeans regard ancient Greek and Roman civilization as their source, a considerable number of scholars, including some Westerners and Chinese scholars, believe that the ancient Greek philosophical and cultural works handed down to us show significant suspicion of tampering and forgery. First, ancient Greek classics lack archaeological evidence; the original classics written in the ancient Greek alphabet had long since vanished. Through the transmission and transit of Arabs and modern translation, the so-called Greek philosophical and cultural works were "resurrected." Second, ancient Greek classics often contain tens, hundreds, or even millions of words (letters); under conditions without papermaking or even bamboo slips, how were these classics written and preserved? The writing conditions in China during the Spring and Autumn, Qin, and Han periods were far superior to those in Greece and Rome.
Moreover, many modern statues of Greek philosophers and politicians were basically re-sculpted by artists during the Renaissance based on the appearance of Europeans. What ancient Greeks and Romans actually looked like is something modern Europeans cannot clearly define. And it is basic common knowledge in world history textbooks that highly civilized ancient Greeks and Romans referred to the Germanic peoples (Germans) and Visigoths of the current European region as barbarians. Therefore, ancient Greeks and Romans have little in terms of race to do with modern Europeans.
Therefore, many modern scholars believe that the philosophical works representing the light of ancient Greek civilization were re-compiled and fashioned by Europeans during the Renaissance for the purpose of establishing their own civilization's tradition, based on the records of Arabs and ancient legends—in other words, they are "forged."
