UigurThe Uigur, with a total population of 7.21 million, have lived at the foot of Mt. Tianshan for several centuries. They used to colonize in the north and northwest region of China, suffering from the wars between tribes, before migrating to the Western Regions (present Xinjiang). The origin of Uigur ethnic group can be traced back to the nomadic people called Dingling and Tiele. During the long history, these people amalgamated with the local residents in Xinjiang. And the present Uigur ethnic group came into being. The Uigur has its own language and alphabet, which belongs to the Turki Austronesian, Altai Phylum. In their language, "Uigur" means "solidification and union". The Uigurs rely heavily on agriculture as their main source of survival. They plant cotton, wheat, corn and paddy. The largest grape base of China is also located in the Turpan Basin. The Uigurs are believers of the Islamic faith, which influences family life, marriages, food, finery and customs. In their daily diet, cooked wheaten food is their staple food, which includes nang, lamian (pulled noodle), zhuafan and baozi (steamed stuffed buns). The Uigurs favor beef, mutton, chicken, duck and fish as the meat in their diet. Fruits also play an important role in their life. The Uigurs are known for their skill in singing and dancing. On festive days and at gatherings of friends and relatives, Uigurs love to sing and dance. Their lively dances demonstrate diligence, bravery, openness and optimism. These dances are also characterized by unique head and wrist movements. The Corban Festival, Almsgiving Festival, Kaizhai Festival and Nuolu Festival are their most important festivals to the Uigur people. |
