Notes on the Reconstruction of Transport Volumes on the Zhaotong and Weinings Roads Ca. 1890–1900 in Tables 7.2 and 7.3 Appendix 6 Notes on the Reconstruction of Transport Volumes on the Zhaotong and Weinings Roads ca. 1890–1900 in Tables 7.2 and 7.3 General Notes Notes on porters: The reconstruction uses the loads reflected for Zhenxiong 鎮雄 1771 and late traditional values for comparative analysis. For ordinary porters, these are 35 kg (Zhenxiong documents) and 42 kg (late imperial standard average in the Southwest). Late traditional records confirm that porters routinely covered the same distances as horse caravans (Rocher 1879, Morrison 1895). On this basis, the av- erage day stages are assumed to be the known intervals, but not exceeding 21–24 km, depending on terrain. For heavy-load porters, the loads are 50 kg (Zhenxiong) and 70 kg (late traditional). As heavy-load porters covering 9–11 km per day are recorded in late traditional and modern sources (Chambre de commerce de Lyon 1898; Jenkins 2010), these values are used for extremely heavy loads of 70 kg and more. As Fei and Chang suggest slightly longer day stages for salt porters in central western Yunnan in 1938 (Fei Hsiao-Tung and Chang Chih-i 1949, 48–49), day stages of 12–14 km are as- sumed for men who carried 50 kg. Notes on pack caravans: The reconstruction uses the late traditional pack load of 72 kg at the standard day distances as standard values. The packhorse load of 168 jin (99 kg) in the copper transport regulations appears to have been an accounting unit rather than actual packhorse load and therefore is not considered in the reconstruc- tion. For a comparative value that assumes very strong mules, loads of 90 kg are used for the most optimistic reconstruction, assuming the regular day stages. Notes on boats: Boat sizes are assumed on the basis of comparable rivers and late traditional descriptions. Travel time uses the day stages for downriver shipping and estimates of the upriver return are adjusted for the velocity of the current and for re- turning empty of with commercial cargo. Notes on the reconstruction of the labour input: The reconstruction employs loads and day distances as basic data and proceeds in three steps. (1) the number of days required for a return trip: return travel time (day stages of the section ×2 for road trans- port and depending on the extra factors of current and boat weight for shipping) + 1/3 of the number of day stages to account for rest days, repairs and waiting + time for handing over between trips (1/4 for caravans, 1/5 for porters, 1/3 for boats, ½ for carts to cover resting the oxen and frequent repairs). (2) the number of return trips in © Koninklijke Brill NV, Leiden, 2020 | doi:10.1163/9789004416178_019 Nanny Kim - 9789004416178 Downloaded from Brill.com09/25/2021 05:03:51AM via free access 560 Appendix 6 a working year that is defined at 320 days, allowing for a rest period in summer and a short break over the Spring Festival. (3) the amount of metal shipped per unit and year. (4) the labour input of men, labouring animals, carts, and boats. Notes of Groups of Goods Cotton cloth: Chambre de Commerce de Lyon 1898, II, 147, based on information gathered by the Yanjin Lijin station, probably for 1895. Volumes are expected to be lower than average because adverse weather caused a famine in northeastern Yunnan in 1893 and 1894. The volume of cloth imports reflects the dependence of large parts of the Yunnan population on imported cotton. Since raw cotton was imported from Myanmar and northern Laos then processed in a home industry in Yunnan, cotton imported via Sichuan is expected to have covered mainly the more northerly parts of Yunnan and upper market demand. Medicinal products: A wide variety of products from plants and animals, from the highland zones of western Sichuan and Yunnan and ranging in price from goods more valuable than their weight in silver to relatively humdrum herbs. Two figures are recorded based on goods processed by the Chongqing Customs: Geil 1904, 105–6, reports a trade volume of 1,000,000 dan (60,000 tons), probably for 1901, while Chambre de Commerce de Lyon 1898, II, 148, record a revenue of 500,000–600,000 liang, prob- ably for 1895. The proportion of goods that were carried on the Zhaotong road from Yunnan, northeastern Yunnan, and the Tibetan highlands via Huili cannot be assessed but would certainly have been considerable. This estimate assumes that a sixth of the goods that passed through the Chongqing Customs came by this route. Medicinal products are also mentioned for the Weining road. Assuming that the trade was a third of that on the Zhaotong road, approximately 1000 tons seems a reasonable estimate. Salt: The tax quota for Zhaotong and Dongchuan (excluding Zhenxiong) laid down in the 1880s was 400 or 467 tons. Zhaotong zhigao 1924, 141, records an original salt quota of 1744 tons for salt from Qianwei 犍為, defining the quota in terms of overland permits (luyin 陸引) of 1875 tickets (zhang 張). In the early Guangxu period (1875– 1908), the quota was reduced to 1000 tickets of 8000 jin. The weight of 8000 jin per ticket is confirmed in Chuanyan jiyao of 1919, which detailed that a permit consisted of 12 tickets and that 8000 jin was made up of 50 packets (bao 包) of 160 jin each. Zhaotong xianzhi gao 1936, 380, records that the jin used for weighing salt contained 19 liang in- stead of the standard 16 liang, which would mean that the salt jin was 0.7 instead of the standard 0.6 kg. The 8000 jin quota hence converts to 560 tons. Since there is no means of establishing how much actual transports carried—they may have fallen short of or exceeded the quota—a rounded figure of 500 tons is used for the Zhaotong road. No data on volumes is available for the Weining road. Due to the frequent mention of the product, an only somewhat smaller volume of 300 tons is assumed.

This records a total of 40,000 dan (2400 tons) of Pu’er tea being shipped out of Yunnan province, of which 18,000 dan (1080 tons) were destined for Sichuan, 600 dan (36 tons) for Guizhou, 400 (24 tons) for Guangxi and Guangdong, and 11,000 (660 tons) for Tibet. This estimate assumes that the tea destined for Sichuan and for with onward trade to eastern and northern China was carried via the Zhaotong and Weining roads in equal proportions. Porcelain: Several sources state that the inhabitants of Yunnan down to the vil- lage level relied on Jiangxi’s kilns for their high quality crockery and porcelain and on goods from eastern and central China for general use. Transport routes used for this trade were the Guiyang route, the Wujiang road, the road via Zunyi and Guiyang, the Weining road, and the Zhaotong road. In the absence of any records on volumes, this estimate works with a round total of 400 tons on both roads, because volumes were large enough to stand out as important. Hides and furs: No records on volumes could be located, but the trade centred on Zhaotong was noted. Two central merchant streets named pijie 皮街 (hide street) and maojie 毛街 (fur street) in the old city reflect the former importance of the fur- processing industry and its onward trade. Household utensils: No data on volumes is available. High quality household goods were mostly made in Jiangnan 江南. These upmarket goods were traded across a wide geographic area. Beyond the Chinese market, they played an important role in South-east Asian trade networks. Metals: In the period, the combined metal outputs of copper, zinc, and lead of the mines in Zhaotong, Dongchuan, Huili, Weining, and Bijie were about 500 tons. Sichuanese tea: A considerable proportion of trade in Sichuanese tea into Yunnan is recorded. Ordinary grades presumably served the markets of the provinces’ north- eastern and eastern parts, while higher grades were sold throughout central Yunnan and traded with Tibet. White wax insects: 8000 porter loads are recorded by Geil for the year 1902 (1904, 190). According to Davies, the porters carried 50–60 lbs (23–27 kg), and the insect’s main breeding area was in the high country between Dongchuan and Weining (1909, 170). The white wax insect, or Chinese wax scale (Ericerus pela), were bred in cold highlands and then transferred to plantations in Sichuan’s lowlands to develop and secrete a hard white wax that served as an outer coat for lard candles. As the living insects needed to reach the Sichuan Basin as fast as possible, transport was exclusively by specialist, fast porters. Silk: No data on volumes. Silks from Jiangnan for the top end of the market and Sichuanese silks famed for their elegance and comfort were traded throughout the South-west and into Myanmar. Opium: Based on information from the tax office of Yanjin and merchants at Zhaotong and Kunming, the members of the Lyonese delegation estimate that, in Nanny Kim - 9789004416178 Downloaded from Brill.com09/25/2021 05:03:51AM via free access 562 Appendix 6 terms of value, opium was the most important export good for Yunnan. Their estimate of the trade at Zhaotong in 1895 was about 3000 dan (180 t) (Chambre de Commerce de Lyon 1898, II, 144).

JABLONSKI3 Denise F. SU4 LI Wen-Qi5 (1 Key Laboratory of Vertebrate Evolution and Human Origins of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology, Chinese Academy of Sciences Beijing 100044, China [email protected]) (2 Research Center for Southeast Asian Archeology & Yunnan Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology Kunming 650118, China) (3 Department of Anthropology, the Pennsylvania State University University Park, PA 16802, USA) (4 Department of Paleobotany and Paleoecology, Cleveland Museum of Natural History Cleveland, OH 44106, USA) (5 Zhaoyang Museum Zhaotong, Yunnan 657000, China) Abstract Rescue excavations carried out from 2007 to 2010 at the Shuitangba lignite field in Zhaotong, Yunnan Province, not only resulted in the discovery of a new hominoid cranium and the addition of a new hominoid site in Yunnan, but the finding of a new muntjak with following characters: the brow tine is very close to the burr, which is moderately developed; the main beam extends backward and somewhat laterally, and then turns somewhat medially; and the neocrista and entocingulum are developed on the upper molars. The four limbs are relatively short. A cladistic analysis shows that the new materials represent a muntjak that is not in a sister-group relationship with Muntiacus leilaoensis from Yuanmou Late Miocene hominoid site, but rather represents an independent branch. Muntiacus zhaotongensis sp. nov. is proposed for the new muntjak materials.

  • Pine Wilt Disease in Yunnan, China: Evidence of Non-Local Pine Sawyer Monochamus Alternatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) Populations Revealed by Mitochondrial DNA
    Insect Science (2010) 17, 439–447, DOI 10.1111/j.1744-7917.2010.01329.x ORIGINAL ARTICLE Pine wilt disease in Yunnan, China: Evidence of non-local pine sawyer Monochamus alternatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) populations revealed by mitochondrial DNA Da-Ying Fu1, Shao-Ji Hu1,HuiYe1, Robert A. Haack2 and Ping-Yang Zhou3 1School of Life Sciences, Yunnan University, Kunming, China, 2USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station, 1407 South Harrison Road, East Lansing, MI, 48823, USA, 3Forest Diseases and Pest Control and Quarantine Station of Dehong Prefecture, Luxi, Yunnan Province, China Abstract Monochamus alternatus (Hope) specimens were collected from nine geo- graphical populations in China, where the pinewood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus (Steiner et Buhrer) was present. There were seven populations in southwestern China in Yunnan Province (Ruili, Wanding, Lianghe, Pu’er, Huaning, Stone Forest and Yongsheng), one in central China in Hubei Province (Wuhan), and one in eastern China in Zhejiang Province (Hangzhou). Twenty-two polymorphic sites were recognized and 18 haplotypes were established by analyzing a 565 bp gene fragment of mitochondrial cytochrome oxi- dase subunit II (CO II). Kimura two-parameter distances demonstrated that M. alternatus populations in Ruili, Wanding and Lianghe (in southwestern Yunnan) differed from the other four Yunnan populations but were similar to the Zhejiang population. No close re- lationship was found between the M. alternatus populations in Yunnan and Hubei. Phylo- genetic reconstruction established a neighbor-joining (NJ) tree, which divided haplotypes of southwestern Yunnan and the rest of Yunnan into different clades with considerable bootstrapping values. Analysis of molecular variance and spatial analysis of molecular variance also suggested significant genetic differentiation between M.

This report aims to strengthen the development of ethnic minorities in the project area, and includes mitigation and benefit enhancing measures, and funding sources. The project area involves a number of ethnic minorities, including Yi, Hani and Lisu. B. Socioeconomic profile of ethnic minorities 2. Poverty and income: The Project involves 16 cities/prefectures in Yunnan Province. In 2013, there were 6.61 million poor population in Yunnan Province, which accounting for 17.54% of total population. In 2013, the per capita net income of rural residents in Yunnan Province was 6,141 yuan. 3. Gender Heads of households are usually men, reflecting the superior status of men. Both men and women do farm work, where men usually do more physically demanding farm work, such as fertilization, cultivation, pesticide application, watering, harvesting and transport, while women usually do housework or less physically demanding farm work, such as washing clothes, cooking, taking care of old people and children, feeding livestock, and field management. In Lijiang and Dali, Bai and Naxi women also do physically demanding labor, which is related to ethnic customs. Means of production are usually purchased by men, while daily necessities usually by women.

  • Exploring the International Actorness of China's Yunnan Province
    Beyond the Hinterland: Exploring the International Actorness of China’s Yunnan Province Song Yao Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Asia Institute The University of Melbourne September 2019 ORCID: 0000-0002-7720-3266 Abstract This study analyses the international relations of subnational governments, a phenomenon conceptualized as paradiplomacy. The scholarly literature on paradiplomacy tends to focus overly on subnational governments in federal systems, rather than those in unitary and centralized countries whose subnational governments have been increasingly proactive in international relations. China is one of these countries. Among the limited numbers of works on Chinese paradiplomacy, the majority are framed within the central-local interactions on foreign affairs and pay inadequate attention to how these provinces have participated directly in external cooperation, in line with their local interests. This body of works also displays a geographical bias, showing more interest in the prosperous coastal regions of China than its inland and border regions. This study, therefore, seeks to address the question of how Yunnan, a border province in the southwest of China, has become an international actor by exploring its international actorness. The thesis develops an original analytical framework. In contrast with previous analytical paradiplomacy frameworks, it combines the concept of paradiplomacy with the theory of actorness. After reviewing the relevant scholarly works, four dimensions of actorness have been considered: motivation, opportunity, capability, and presence. First, this study argues that, in the face of profound domestic developments and a complex external environment, Yunnan has been motivated to engage in cross-border cooperation and to consolidate its external affairs powers.

The recent excavations of the terminal Miocene hominoid site (between 6 and 6.5 Ma) at Shuitangba site, Zhaotong in Yunnan Province resulted in the discovery of rich tapir fossils, which include left maxilla with P2-M2 and mandibles with complete lower dentitions. The new fossil materials can be referred to Tapirus yunnanensis, which represents a quite small species of the genus Tapirus. But T. yunnanensis is slightly larger than another Late Miocene species T. hezhengensis from Gansu, northwest China, both of which are remarkably smaller than the Plio-Pleistocene Tapirus species in China.
