Tienshinhan is from ancient clan of triclops humanoids.

They are "sort of" human, they are definitely similar, but they are a seperate race among earthlings.

One thing is for certain, he is not a alien

I do know about the whole "alien" thing what Tien has said in raging blast. and the Daizenshuu, while yes the Daizenshuu is 100% fact, Toriyama doesn't have a full say in it and the idea probably didn't even come from his imagination, Then again, not even Goku nor Piccolo/Kami were initially intended to be a demon like species(thus demonking, and piccolo's demonic looking children), Goku was just a monkeyboy, and "Unamed Namekian"(the actual being they were before seperating) was only later explained to be from another planet.

And Tien himself is a earthling/mostly human even if you go by these statements, he was born and raised on earth, since Tien never spoke of any other planet and has only stated his long past ancestors to be from space.

Also googled about the VA for a second, seems it was the japanese voice actor who said that Tien was not "a earthling".... which is pretty much a lie.

Tien IS an earthling, most of his blood is "Homosapien" and he was born here, so he is an earhling, even cats are earthlings, since, they are from earth. He is just not 100% homosapien, that's different. 4 minutes ago

I think that the term "alien" referred only to his DNA. Goku and Piccolo are Earthlings, too (or at least, I consider Goku to be one, he grew up on Earth), but they wouldn't exist without planet Vegeta and planet Namek.

Then again, in DB's universe there are all kinds of different creatures (dinosaurs are still alive, but there are also creatures such as Oolong, Puar, etc.) so his DNA might also be entirely from Earth after all.
