POV Sinification claims

The so-called evidence here is in fact simply regional lifestyle goods found all around Yunnan of the time probably including Tibet, definitely including north-eastern India and Burma, modern Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam, the latter possessing a more obviously evidenced cultural link to Dian via the Dong Son bronze drum culture complex. Claiming a bronze mirror is evidence of Sinification is just too obtuse without additional citations and evidence. Hence, I have added an NPOV section notice. Feel free to improve this section as you see fit. prat (talk) 14:54, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
