Sibu Tales :Fifth toe nail

Han Chinese,including all the Foochow descendants of the Foochow pioneers of Sarawak, have a very interesting split toe nail in their fifth toe.

It is interesting when you actually give it a check to find that it is true.

This is excerpted from Wikipedia "

While it was thought to be a prevalent feature amongst Han Chinese, it is observed in people from all ethnicities and races. It is commonly perceived to be especially present amongst Han Chinese^[2].

Chinese mythology follows that during the time of the Yellow Emperor, there were two types of people living in China, those who were the descendants of the Yellow Emperor, and those who were nomadic Qiang people. As the Henan people attacked the Qiang, led by Yin Wang, they abducted a Qiang woman, who later tried to escape. After Yin Wang stabbed her in the abdomen as she tried to escape, she gave birth to two children with a scar on the small toe of the foot. The children were taken back by Yin Wang for adoption, and their descendants were born with double nails on their small toes.^[4]
