Baima Tibetan:
The Baima Tibetan, also known as the Baima people and the Baima ethnic group, is an ethnic group with a population of more than 20,000 people (2015) living in the eastern end of the Minshan Mountains in the borders of Wenxian County of Longnan City in Gansu Province, Ningqiang County of Hanzhong City in Shaanxi Province, and Jiuzhaigou County of Mianyang City and Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan Province. The national language is Baima, and the beliefs are nature worship, Benjaminism, and Buddhism.
The Baima people have a long history, first seen in the Western Han Dynasty in the "Records of the Grand Historian - Fifth Sixth Biography of the Southwestern Barbarians," "Since Ran Yuma to the northeast, the king's head to the number of shi, the largest Baima, all of them are also dizi class." ?In the 1950s, the Beichuan administrative office designated the Baima people living in the area as Tibetans, but for a long time, their language and culture have been relatively different from other Tibetans.
Research on the genus of the Baima people can be broadly categorized into three views, namely the "氐人说", the "羌人说" and the "藏族分支说".
In 2012, the Key Laboratory of Modern Anthropology at Fudan University conducted DNA research on the Baima people and found that the Baima people are the oldest tribe in East Asia, and the Tibetans do not have the same origin, and their ancestors should come from the Qiang people.
