Is it a common practice to depict foreigners with chinese features? The japanese don't seem to do this based on the posts so far

This codex is from 1565 tho, so there may be some European influence after 45 years of colonial rule.
No pre-colonial depiction survived even if reportedly some great ones existed.

You can go further back than that, the Huns were from Central Asia and thoroughly fucked up both Roman Empires in the 400s

This was how africans described us when we reached there:

>"A day from the sea came a great ship, white wings, and shining like knives in the sun, white men came out of the water, saying words that no one understood, our ancestors were afraid and thought they were Vumbi, souls of the other world. >They managed to make them return to the sea by shooting clouds of arrows, but the "Vumbi" began to spit fire with a noise of thunder .... "

>* African oral tradition, in F. Braudel, Material Civilization ... III.

How Japanese describded us in 1571:

>"These men (the Portuguese) are merchants >... They drink in a glass without offering it to others. They eat with their fingers (1) and not with chopsticks like us ... They are people who spend their lives traveling From there to beyond, without a right address, and exchange products that have the ones they do not have, but deep down they are not bad people. "

>*Crónica Teppo-Ki (adaptado)
>(1) cutlery began to be used recurringly in Europe only from the 18th century onwards


and the chinese described us like this:


>"It can be said that the first objective of the Fu-lang-chi (the Portuguese) to China was the commerce (...).
>Fu-lang-chi people are tall and have big noses. The eyes are like those of the cat and the shape of the mouth like that of the eagle. The hair grows on the backs of their hands, and their beards are red. They love commerce and, based on their military power, have a habit of invading and oppressing smaller countries. They go to any place where there is profit ... They wear clean and beautiful clothes >... Whenever a dispute arises, they point to the sky and swear to tell the truth. "

>*História de Ming (adaptado)

Interesting to see the different hair colors.

>white men came out of the water, saying words that no one understood, our ancestors were afraid and thought they were Vumbi, souls of the other world

that was when portugal was ran by jews. its a completely different country now.

In actuality, Portugal immediately after getting rid of the Jews (but kept their money).

rude thing to do

>On 5 December 1496,King Manuel I of Portugalsigned the decree of expulsion of Jews and Muslims to take effect by the end of October of the next year.[1]

We kicked them out decades earlier

that was just jewish in-fighting, the crypto-jews kicked out the semites.
Jews founded Portugal, and then after their empire collapsed were swarmed by their former colonies and became blacked.

just like what will happen with USA, so in a way you are right

BAAAASED BASED BASED BASED BASED

>Whenever a dispute arises, they point to the sky and swear to tell the truth.
nice.
weird how foreigners notice such things that we take for granted.

anglos true form

The peoples depicted in and are Minoans, Hattians and Syrian-Aegans (all of them rather borderline European). It's shown how they bring gifts from their kings to the Pharaoh.

The picture in is in a position that equals to the hieroglyph for prisoner of war .

dont worry all whites are evil

wtf? Portugal expansion happen precisly after the expulsion of the jewss in 1496 by D. Manuel I

>Jews founded Portugal
