摘　　要：During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression(1931-1945),multiethnic intellectuals further explored and solidified the evidential foundation of the common ancestor and shared origin of the Chinese nation through archaeological excavation of Peking Man,as well as studies into the historical geography and history of Pamirs Plateau.In addition to diachronic research methods,multi-ethnic intellectuals attached great importance to applying multi-disciplines introduced into modern China such as ethnology,linguistics,and sociology,to explore the common origin of various ethnic groups in China from the synchronic perspectives of physique,language,and culture.Furthermore,local knowledge widely spread in the areas of frontier ethnicities,such as brotherhood legends and ancestral memories,also offered important evidence for the theory of the common origin of the Chinese nation.This important topic concerning the formation of the modern concept of the Chinese nation still needs to be re-evaluated,examined and explored in depth in the context of the development of academic history and intellectual history in modern China.
