In the Tang Dynasty, there was a kind of person called Kunlun Nu. Kunlun nu has two points, one pointing to southeast Asians, whom we call Kunlun nu, and the other refers to the black people from the West. So how did these black people come about? These blacks were supposed to be the result of the slave trade in the Middle East. The Arabs trafficked sub-Saharan blacks to Europe and east Asia. These black people who entered China are what we call "Kunlun nu".
