The Xibe also called Sibo or Sibe, with a population of 127,900, are a Tungusic population
who widely live over Northern China from the Ili area in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous
Region in the west to the Northeast provinces of Liaoning and Jilin (Fig. S1). Most
believe they are descendants of the Xianbei people, a nomadic tribe that established
the Northern Wei Dynasty (386–534). By the end of the 17th century, the Xibe tribes
in different areas had all been incorporated into the “eight banners” of Mongolia
and Manchu. The Xibe people in Northeast and Northwest China have each formed their
own characteristics in the course of development. The language and eating, dressing
and living habits of the Xibes in the Northeast are close to those of the local Han
and Manchu people. Living in more compact communities, those in Xinjiang have preserved
more of the characteristics of their language script and life styles.
