While international media is abuzz over the discovery of the world’s oldest stash of marijuana, a glaringly-obvious fact was inconspicuously left in the article: the pot stash was part of the tomb of a blond-haired, blue-eyed man who lived in China some 2,700 years ago.
Chinese legend is full of blond-haired, blue-eyed people who brought Buddhism to China and organized society there. Fully-preserved mummies showing clear Nordic facial structure, including red, and blond hair, were first discovered in the graveyards of the Tocharians in the Chinese Takla Makan desert back in the 1980′s. In January of this year, archaeologists using genetic testing have proven that Caucasians roamed China’s Tarim Basin 1,000 years before East Asian people arrived.
In fact, this new discovery of marijuana at a Caucasian grave site in China is not the first. That distinction goes to a 2,800 mummy who was discovered back in 2003. Archeologists at the time discovered a sack of marijuana leaves alongside the mummy.
Archeologists believe both mummies were likely shamen from the Gushi culture and used the herb as part of their religious practice.

or to get geeked lol
Or, you know, the guy could have had phenylketonuria, or some weird diet nearly devoid of phenylalanine and tyrosine. Or some other bizarre inborn error of metabolism. Blond hair and blue eyes is not necessarily indicative of European heritage. I want to see DNA analysis.
*insert blond joke here*
But really.
Is there a link to see pictures
Mr Bong you are an idiot, geeking is tweak.
To Kyle Varner: ummm.. I think you missed this quote in the article: "In January of this year, archaeologists using genetic testing have proven that Caucasians roamed China’s Tarim Basin 1,000 years before East Asian people arrived."
You've got your DNA analysis. The Gushi Caucasians are well known now to have roamed modern Eastern China.
I meant of course Western China.
you two are both idiots, geeking is southern lingo for taking ecstacy, or what people from l.a. would say: "rolling".
I'm wondering how they know about the eye color (or true hair color, for that matter) after over 2000 years… I'm guessing that they're guessing based on the bone structure.
This is hardly some huge revelation, the Uigurs in Xinjiang still look pretty white.
Fast times at Tocharian High?
If man descended from ape and came out of Africa, how could Caucasians get to Western China before East Asians did? I mean…wouldn't the East Asians have had to go through Western China from Africa to get to East Asia to begin with?
Look at were the fact comes from.
Solutrean Truth is were the got the story from.
Google that and then remember, anyone can post on the internet. It doesn't necessarily make the blond blue eyed thing false, but I'd rather hear it from an actual scientist studying the mummy than a white supremicist group.
Surfer dude wanted to be buried with his awesome stash… the most natural thing in the world.
Christians and republicans are racist extremists? Give me a break. These guys are welcoming loads of non-white immigrants and stepping over themselves to prove that they're not racist.
You guys are nuts.
Right you are mr. pax.

How many blondes does it take to organize the Chinese ?
MLK… they got there by going up what is now called isreal and crossing up the gobi desert north easterly! the east asians tended to stay by the water because it was more affordable, safer, and also back then there were a lot of different dialects of chinese so they stayed where they could speak the freaking language!!
The right-wing crazies were right! White people really are the master race. Make that ‘were’ the master race.
This is one of the Illuminati drug mules from years ago.
caucasians are the reason the world wears shoes and clothes and has clean drinking water.this has nothing to do with race,but,more with geography.harsh european winters like,necessity,were the mother of invention.people in tropical climates have almost no need for clothes or shoes,and food supplies are often limitless.
Geeking refers to getting jacked up on any stimulant. Marijuana certainly does not apply.
Keep that info quiet. You don’t want the Christians to start another white supremast crusade to china do you? Bush already has us overextended to the point we are ready to collapse
Makes sense now… Of course.. this is proof it’s the white man who brought all that technology to China. Gun powder and etc. How can the chinks ever come up with stuff like that! They can’t even use it right. They used it for peaceful purposes like fireworks!! And oh yeah… the Great wall is built by the great white man too.
Did you guys know that according to Chinese tradition, Chinese pyramids were built by “people with blond hair and blue eyes”.
Oh snizzle. Pot heads!

You’re right oneman. western man had to adapt when the food ran out and the weather got cold. Other races stayed hunter gatherer because they could.
On Dec 5 the Supreme Court will either allow or disallow the usurpation of both the Constitution and the Government of the United States — easily the most pivotal decision since our nation’s founding — and the silence of the news media is deafening (if not downright scary).

If I were a nordic wanderer I would totally trek to China and smoke some folks out over some tea, meditate, earn some respect, and get buried with my wares. Must have had gracious hosts to mummify him without stealing his stash.
Can eye tissue be preserved over 2700 years? Can they really tell the color of the eyes???
to those of you questioning about eye/hair color, they of course can tell by the genes. There is no apparent hint left of original color on hair or eyes, whats left anyway.
One need only realize that our White Caucasian ancestors roamed the world in advanced sea craft while the rest wallowed in ignorance and barabrism! Yes, these ancestors of ours where White and Blond Blue Eyed men! Not only did they build China’s pyramids, but the pryamids of Egypt as well! The Great Pharaoh Rameses the Third had RED hair! Yes, his mummy has Red hair! He was of the Celtic/Nordic RACE. All of N.America was settled by our people. Legends abound of Great White Gods who came from accross the Sea to teach the Berigians the arts of civilization. Our continent is known as Great Solutrea. The “indians” are really called the “Beringians” after the land that they came from AFTER our Solutrean ancestors, Beringia. The truth has upset some who cannot fathom the magnificence of our White Caucasian Solutrean Ancestors. Get over it!
My hot dog smells like goat cheese
Nordic blond-haired, blue-eyed man in
China? 2700 years ago. I dig it.
Smokin Hemp too. Cool!
thanks from tony
While the rest of the world was banging on drums and howling at the moon us Nordics traveled the world teaching civilization, and smoking them up to boot.
Blond hair, blue eyes and pot. They must have been Dutch…

Could you imagine chiefing it up with like Lu Bu from Romance of the Three Kingdoms? Or if you ever played Dynasty Warriors before, same deal. I would really like to have kicked it and puffed with Liu Bei though, dude know how to keep it with his brothers while protecting his people, Liu Bei totally kicked ass and I bet he smoked more reefer than all the other main characters combined because that was how hardcore he was.
Since the Chinese assert they were in Tibet first and that gives them sovereign claim, they need to submit to western Caucasian authority because there is now proof the Chinese weren't the first ones in China??
Pretty old news. They discovered a grave in eastern China a good number of years ago that contained a Caucasian person. Not terribly amazing since people in the Near East are known to have blonde/red hair, blue/green eyes.
What was incredible, is that the individual was wearing Indian dress and a Southern Arabian pointed hat. The remains were dated to around the same time as the grave in the article.
Caucasians didn't exactly originate in Noridc areas! Also, we somehow think the peoples of the old world didn't travel much.
The Dutch are quite dark, Savage, as are the Germans. And why do you peons jump to "Nordic" or Vikings (Scandinavians)? It's like you fell for the WWII propaganda like a bunch of idiots.
It was probably some dude from Rus', some Slav, those wonderful blue-eyes, blond and far-skinned Slavs, some with a smattering of fleckles on their noses. Envy drove the dark-eyed, haired and skinned Fuhrer into a frenzy, enough to incorporate Slavic children into the dark Germanic races.
More likely was the fact that blondism and blue eyes occur in every population in the world. Here's an Asian girl that demonstrates both traits: http://www.flickr.com/photos/29126736@N08/3078865…
it's possible there's a Russian admixture there, but it's probably unnecessary to require it since Kashmir, the Hmong and a people from India display these traits. If you search you'll find Subsaharan African with the same features, such a blue-eyes.
So stop being such idiots and get real. Europeans, particularly Slavs, simply have the number of people with these traits, but it does not mean these traits are limited to them. After all, these traits are likely to have evolved outside of Europe.

Damn, is this white supremacist website? Next time, I’ll be sure to find out where I am first before I read the comments. OK white man, you are the greatest, you bring technology to all us barabarians and savages. OK…are you happy now? You guys are like children.
butt face that sucks!
There was a lost tribe that can't be found even til this day.China has covered and concealed it so it will never get out. The blue eyes blonde hair doesn't mean that the mummy was caucasian. There are stories passed on from generation to generation as to this tribe.
The king who ruled what is now called china was killed as well as his people. Women and girls were taken and married into chinese culture. Some were able to escape and migrate into other countries. There is still a statue of the king in one of the temples in china. Scrolls written about history does not exist because it was all destroyed. Language unheard of because it was banned so it will never be heard of again. Hmong was the lost tribe.
