A lot of ancient chinese might be giants compared to today. I visited an imperial palace near Shenyang and all the imperial guards' armor and weapons were huge, for people much taller than 6 feet/182cm. I wonder if they were actually that big.

It's seven chi with one chi somewhere between 10.5 and 12 inches so lowballing he would be 6'2 still huge for someone born in 1371, average chinaman of that era wasn't much taller than five feet zero.

The only native white ethnicity in China is in western region(modern day Xinjiang), and many of them still have Indo-European appearances, they've never been displaced or vanished, but they're also NOT the people who lived in Chinese central plain and built ancient Chinese dynasties. Get your head out out your ass, don't act like a nugget.

The average 'Dutch' male in the first and second century AD. stood at 5'9"
