mount sinai = chinese

damn, everything with any word in any language that has even the slightest sound as 'china' must be from china then lol

unless xu fu lived for 500 years, he's probably not

he's an aryan demigod, he doesnt need any immortality potions

or your theories are absolutely wrong. it's like saying that since americans still mention george washington, then lincoln, roosevelt, kennedy and obama are all george washington too.

the transmission of language doesnt come from one encounter - it comes from repeated interactions over a long period of time. the chinese did leave a lot of linguistical contributions to the se asian languages, but with the repeated interactions by traders.

as far as i know, the temples are to commemorate his introduction of new farming techniques, including silk, as a 'god of silk'.

the jomon existed thousands of years before xu fu. xu fu may have arrived in japan - but if he wants to be the ancestor to the japanese he'd need to have come to japan much much much earlier

no. the jomon were paleolithic, meaning they were over 5000 years old, going through the ice age and stuff.

in contrast, the wu at most goes back to 1000 bc. unless the spring and autumn annals included a long ice age winter, then probably not.

also, xu fu is not an ancestor deity.

actually the whole royal family is technically german. due to the intermarriages, most of the protestant monarchs are cousins. e.g. upon ww1, the brit king and german kaisers were cousins.

actually normans (basically the ruling house of most of northern europe) are pretty much vikings.

so you have normans ruling gauls in france and anglo-saxons in england. liken a very complicated age of empires game lol
