为什么说“西藏自古以来就是中国的一部分”

On Reasons Why Tibet is an Inseparable Part of China since Ancient Time

本文阐介谭其骧《历史上的中国和中国历史疆域》中关于中国的历史和历史疆域是汉族和其他民族共同缔造的,历史上不在汉族建立的中原王朝统辖范畴之内的其他民族建立的政权同样也是属于中国的科学论断,并分别从地理学、考古学、人种学和民族学等几个方面论述"西藏自古以来就是中国的一部分"。所谓"西藏自元代纳入中国版图后才成为中国第一部分"的说法是不符合历史事实的。

Tan Qixiang concludes in his book China in History and Chinese Territory that the history and territory of China are the joint efforts of both Han and other ethnic groups.And similarly,the political powers of other ethnic groups,which are beyond the reign of the Imperial Court of the Central Plain,also belong to China.Based on these ideas and the research findings of geography,archeology,ethnology and ethnonymics, this paper claims that Tibet is an inseparable part of China ever since ancient time.The idea that the annexation of Tibet started after Yuan Dynasty doesn't conform to the historical facts at all.
