Moreover, those who came from the Far East to trade with the Scythians were called Sinae (Sin). Ptolemy, a Greek astronomer, referred to China as the land of Sinim or Sin. Reference to the Sinim in Isaiah 49:12 notes they came "from afar," Arabs called China Sin, Chin, Mahachin, or Machin. The Sin were spoken of as a people in the remotest parts of Asia. Their most important town was Thin, a great trading emporium in western China. This city is now known as Thsin or simply Tin, and it lies in the province of Shensi. The Sin became independent in Western China, their princes reigning there for some 650 years before they finally gained dominion over the whole land. In the third century B.C., the dynasty of Tsin became supreme. In 217 B.C., Prince Cheng, founder of the Ch'in Dynasty (from which the name "China" is taken) unified China and took the title of Shih Hwang-ti (First Emperor). Shih Hwang-ti built much of the Great Wall of China, and a network of roads and canals that converged on his capitol, near modern Sian, in Shensi province. It is known that his people who gave their name to China actually came from Tibet. After the end of his dynasty his people were exiled from China not back to where they came from but to the ancient islands of Japan a legend now backed up by genetic science which has discovered Human Y-chromosomal Haplogroup D present not only in Tibet but also in northern Japan. After the attacks of King Saul the Benjaminite, the Amorite origin Gibeonites who became the Nethinim also migrated to Tibet (where the Hindus called them "untouchables") to be with their cousins bringing the vestiges of Israelite religion to the Sinites, which is evidenced in the composition of certain Chinese pictograms as well as some holidays on the Chinese calendar, the Shinto concept of Kami and other practices preserved by Shinto priests.
Concerning Sinites are not to be confused with the Cathay people of historical reference, it would make sense to suppose that the remnants of the Kittim, after the destruction of their empire, traveled towards the east and settled among the Sinites who were relatives, contributing to their civilization, and thus becoming the ancestors of many Asian people groups including the Khazar or Ashkenazim "Jews". Still others migrated throughout the region and beyond, making up the present-day Mongoloid races in Asia and the Americas. What the Chinese call "Hsiung-nu" are the Turko-Mogul nomad tribes we know as "Huns".
'''[[Shemite Nation|Shemite]]''', literally means "renown". '''Y-chromosomal Haplogroup F*'''. Islamic sources have always referred to Iran as the original land of Shem. His descendants have been prominent in the middle east from time immemorial but have since spread throughout the world.
