"Chinese blondes" are probably not Roman descendants

I actually know a few "100% Han Chinese" people who have slightly brown/reddish hair. At first I thought they were dyed, but eventually I was convinced that they were not.<p>In retrospect, I'm not really that surprised, considering China being continental, and the amount of trade/migration over the centuries.

The same trait occurs in Iran &#38; Afghanistan too. Not sure why this link's on HN though?

as guessed before reading the article, they are indeed the uygur people.
