Alimihan Seyiti (born June 25, 1886?) is a supercentenarian claimant. She lives in the Chinese city of Kashgar, near the border with Kyrgyzstan. On August 15, 2013, the Xinjiang Daily reported that she was born on June 25, 1886, which, if true, would make her the oldest person in recorded history. Chinese birth records before and into the 20th century are generally unreliable, however, so substantiating her claim has been difficult.<ref name="telegraph"/> Longevity Seyiti attributes longevity to dressing herself up. She said that she never been to hospital. She still does chores like feeding chickens.<ref name=telegraph/> See Also *Longevity claims
