I've had this idea for some time now.Normally we type a name and then click on the images option to look for images of that individual on a search engine. Would it be possible/make sense to have a reverse pic search option on search engines on the net. Like in this case we have a pic but don't have much information regarding the lady in the pic.So we open our search engine,feed the pic and would get information regarding the pic. Feel free to exploit this idea commercially and do pass me 10% as royalty incase you are able to make any profits. |

Welcome, temka! How did I miss your presence on here? 5 posts you've posted and yet I have no memory of you! Some periods I just don't bother to come here I guess. Another Chinese Mongol, an actress, Siqingaowa (in Mandarinized pronounciation). http://image.baidu.com/i?tn=baiduimage&ct=...%D9%B8%DF%CD%DE A rather beautiful woman with Mongolian facial proportions. A picture of her in younger years:

Bao Xishun of Inner Mongolia, world's tallest man, who though has a Han name, according to news media is ethnic Mongol.![]() It seems that long faces have something to do with over-growth.. |

She looks like women in the region of the Monguor (Tu), Santa (Dongxiang) and Baonan Mongolic peoples. The three frontal pictures I have from Ordos Mongolian women imply that narrow faces are common among them, too. Barguts and/or Buryats of China were reported to be narrow-faced. But I don't have any pictures to check. The Buryats in Russia are known to be broad-faced. And the Barguts are not only in their neighbourship but also linguistically related to them. So I'd guess that she's Ordos Mongol. What is her subethnic group? |

Must likely Chahar, as most Inner Mongolians are. I disagree that she is narrow-faced, just long-faced. I have a picture of a Korean woman who looks like her, next to Yi women, and it's clear the Yi were narrow-faced while the Korean female was long, broad-faced. |

Here are some other photos of Urna Chahar-Tugchi:![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In my opinion, Urna lacks the peculiarly Korean-ish look that most Mongols (in Outer Mongolia?) have. I think she looks more like a typical Northern Han or Tibetan, and sort of similar to Gong Li at some angles. (I think Gong Li was born in Shenyang, Liaoning, and raised in Jinan, Shandong.) I have also seen some Manchus who look similar to Urna.
"Southwest region of Inner Mongolia" should be pretty close to the ancient territories of Tibetans and Hans. A photo labeled only as "Inner Mongolian people": http://www.flickr.com/photos/venture160/796703876/ These folks seem to have fairly broad nasal roots. However, when I think of "Mongolians," I usually think of something more like these people: ![]() ![]() http:// image54.webshots.com/54/5/75/62/2163575620071746138AKlfXk_ph.jpg |

I think a lot of wjat makes her less "Mongol" are her "double eyelids".. otherwise her facial proportions are simply not extremely Mongol but quite common. |

Yes, I'm sure her eyelids are a large part of the reason, but she just doesn't look particularly Mongolian to me. In fact, if someone were to show me all these photos of her out of the blue, without any indication of her identity, I think I would more likely have guessed that she was Han, Manchu, or Tibetan than Mongol. Almost all Mongols I have known or seen have had extremely broad midfacial regions (or perhaps I should say "horizontally flaring malars/zygomas" in anthropological terminology) in addition to "single eyelids" and extreme chubbiness (perhaps this is called "a high subcutaneous fat ratio"), and I think they also have tended to have weak chins. |
