What is the relationship between Qiang and Tibetan?

Thousands of years ago, the Qiang people and the Tibetans belonged to the ancient Qiang people and had the same language. Several tribes migrated to Tibet, and finally established the Tubo Kingdom, becoming Tibetan tribes without migration, and staying in the local area, becoming the Qiang people now.

1. The ancient Qiang nationality has the longest history and culture in China. It lived in the west of China as early as thousands of years ago, which had an extremely important influence on the historical process of China and was an important part of Chinese civilization. With the migration of tribes, they are divided into Qiang and Tibetan. At present, the Qiang people mainly live in Sichuan, and the Tibetans mainly live in Xizang Autonomous Region.

Second, the Qiang culture is deeply accumulated. Since the song dynasty, it has been officially called. Most of the whole nation believes in Tibetan Buddhism, and the rest believe in primitive religions, and their costumes also have their own characteristics. Qiang men and women wear robes made of cotton cloth, which are very loose and shaped like cheongsam. Colors vary according to age. Middle-aged and elderly people are mainly solid colors, while teenagers are mainly beautiful colors, both unmarried men and women. Qiang people like to wear all kinds of decorations on their bodies while wearing cloth shoes after marriage, while men will hang waist knives on their bodies. In terms of diet, they are very rich, with all kinds of highland barley and corn products.

Third, Tibetans also have an ancient history. Since the establishment of the Tubo Dynasty, their national culture has been brilliant, leaving a lot of heritage in medical dance, among which Tibetan medicine is also a world-famous medicine. Tibetan costumes have a typical plateau style because of their large temperature difference between geographical location and ecological environment and unpredictable climate. Therefore, Tibetans generally wear Tibetan robes, which can resist low temperature weather and strong winds. When the weather is good, they can expose one arm outside to dissipate heat. Tibetans also have a unique diet, among which Tibetan food, also known as one of the catering schools in China, has a long history and diverse varieties, and is the crystallization of the wisdom of the Tibetan people.
