According to ancient Chinese texts, there were also a very small number of Jewish descendants in China, who were then called "Ju" or "Juyi," which means "people who come from afar." Their history dates back to the Han Dynasty, when there were already Jews living in China for a long time. According to historical records, the ancestors of the Jews came from the Arabian Peninsula, and they first came to China as merchants. Over time, some Jews stayed in China and settled down as a distinct cultural group. Although there are people of Jewish descent in China, there is no direct connection between these descendants and Jews in the modern sense. Chinese Jews have fully integrated into traditional Chinese culture and have developed their own unique way of life.
