And the Jurchen of course, are the ancestors of the Manchu.Copyright 2007. It seems there is evidence the 12th and 13th century Jurchen of the Jin Dynasty wore their hair in a queue as well. This article here by Michael Godley (1994, published in East Asian History,) discusses some of the history of the queues and interactions of nomad and Chinese hair styles. During the Qing Dynasty, the Manchu hairstyle was imposed onto the Han Chinese to mark their submission to the Qing. Mongols were distinguished by their shaved heads and looped hair behind their ears, while the Manchu were famous for the long queue from the back of their heads. Therefore, to the Chinese the stereotype of the 'northern barbarian' is long, often braided hair. For the Chinese, adults could not cut their hair as per Confucian tradition, so would gather it into a topknot (while Buddhist monks shaved their heads). Hairstyles and clothing were one of the primary indicators of ethnic identity (and political allegiance) in East Asia until very recently.
