    Austronesians are some of the most interesting people groups in my opinion.
    without out them the world would be very very different.

    Hi, Masaman
    I am a Japanese from southern Kyushu. I tested my DNA and found my Maternal haprogroup is B4xxxxx which is the typical of Austronesian and Native American. They say this type is existing in Japan thousands of years from Jomon period especially in southern Kyushu.
    I just want to add that southern Kyushu (Kagoshima,, Miyazaki, Oita and Okinawa) people have very distinctive family name groups. I mean if rank the top ten family names of each prefecture, these prefectures have very unique family names not similar to any other area of Japan. Historically ancient Japan, each regions is very tribe oriented and did not accept or mix with outsiders. So there are something we can think.
    There are many sign of Austronesian culture in Japan. -- loincloth -- is the oceanic culture, not from Korea or China. Also they say repeating the same word in Japanese is similar to Austronesian culture, they say.

      @Joseph Rabozzi The Ainu are not totally descended from the Jomon as well - they later admixed with native Siberians from the mainland.
      When it comes to your alternative history scenario - it's very much possible that the culture in Japan would be completely different if they stayed Jomon, and by our modern racial standards they would probably be categorized as a different race from other East Asians. But I bet that Japan would be an undeveloped country like Papua New-Guinea is nowadays....

      The fact is opposite. The vast amount of Chinese vocabulary today is from Japan because most of professors in Beijing University which was The China’s first modern university studied abroad in Japan when it was established in the early 20th century.
      Confucian never became a part of Japanese culture in general.That’s basic knowledge.What you are saying is like saying that Japan is Christian culture for the very minority who accepted Christianity.
      You don’t understand the definition of language.
      Japanese is in a completely different language family from Chinese.
      There was no big immigration from China into Japan
      You seems like believing that you are Chinese
      But there is no Chinese people and Chinese culture in the world just like there is no African culture and African people.
      China is a name of land, not a group of people.

Could Japanese be a para-austroasiatic language with an Austro-Tai substrate (since both Austronesian and Tai-Kayak are O1a) (and since the Japonic languages were from the Yangtze with both the Tai-Kadai and Austronesian, and a Koreanic superstate? And is Koreanic and the Goguryeoic be Tungusic, since North Korea, where Goguryeo was, was not suitable for agriculture and thus had to be at lease semi nomadic like the Tungusics?

    it's not that complicated.
    Jomons are people who entered Japan during the ice age, when the sea level was much lower, and humans can walk into Japan.
    Yayois are people who enterred Japan after the ice age, when Japan became island, and humans had to develop sea going ships to cross the strait between Korea and Japan. it took humans very long time to develop ships that are capable of crossing sea after the ice age. so Jomon people had long period of isolation from continental influence.

When the Ice Age was over, these people spread over the entire islands, but isolated, and each tribes developed their own cultures.

      @Daisy Wong.
      First of all, I think that Han Chinese is a self brainwashed term to define themselves.
      I have been travelled many regions in China and from the view point of anthropology, roughly speaking, depending on regions , they are living like different ethnic groups and I believe the true Han is only from 華北.
      The southern Chinese who believe that they were Han can be classified into different ethnic groups from anthropology viewpoint.
      Speaking accurately, all thorough History, Han from west-north gradually has been conquering different groups of people in South.
      I know that they feel they are so different to each other even today.
      I think that demographically, prehistoric immigration from China was not big but big impact on diet like rice harvesting came from Chiang Jiang river down stream area.
      When I travelled the Chiang Jiang river down stream area, I admit that influence on diet from the area to Japan was big although demographically not so many people seemed not to have come to Japan from there because compared to the big impact on diet, there is no linguistic influence from China.
      If prehistoric immigration from China has been big, Japanese language would have been in Sino-Tibetan family.
      But that never happened.
      In Japan, we still eat of a lot of taro. this is a remain of diet before rice coming.

      Before 孫文, roughly speaking, China was just a name of land.
      But now political ideology is making a fiction that ‘ Chines history was 5000 years but that’s not true.
      In the land of China, history is about 3700 years.
      Even if you include 夏, it won’t be up to 4000 years.
      In prehistoric era, There were neither a country China nor country Japan nor a country Korea.

    Would be awesome if you could cover the Paleosiberian people and the languages they speak as they are often glossed over and rarely talked about. With many language isolates and more than several language families in the region, it is not known whether they are genetically related (linguistics). For all we know, some of these Paleosiberian languages could be related to other languages such as Korean, Nivkh, and the language spoken by the Xiongnu.
    AFAIK, these language families are: Chukotko-Kamchatkan, Nivkh, Yukaghir, Yeniseian, and Eskimo-Aleut. The Eskimo-Aleut family is especially an interesting one because it is spoken not just in Alaska and the Canadian Arctic but also in Siberia. In 2015, it was also noted that Northern Tungusic languages have Eskimo-Aleut loanwords, suggesting that Eskimo-Aleut was once much more widely spoken in eastern Siberia.

      Historical cause
      At that time, the Xia Dynasty had not been established, and there was no concept of a country. Before the Xia Dynasty, some brown races in Fujian developed slowly, and the Central Plains culture did not involve the Fujian region. Around the Spring and Autumn Period, the first slavery country, the "Kuo Lou Kingdom", was established in Fujian. Until the early years of the Qin Dynasty, after the Qin destroyed Chu and Yue, it continued to invade the Fujian region. At that time, the southernmost point of the Yue Kingdom was Wenzhou in Zhejiang Province, and further south was the category of the "Bulou Kingdom". "The Kingdom of Bulou" all over the country desperately resisted the invasion of the Qin Dynasty, but it was ultimately defeated. Part of the brown race fled to Taiwan, and the remaining "Gulou citizens" accepted the subsidiary rule of the Qin Dynasty.
      After the fall of Qin, the "King of Fulou" was free again, but the time limit was short. Soon Liu Bang's army invaded the border of the Kingdom of Fulou. Due to the great disparity in power, the "Kuo Lou Kingdom" was defeated again and became a dependent country of the Han Dynasty, and was renamed "Min Yue Kingdom". In the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Minyue State was abolished and became a county. Since then, Minyue State has been destroyed and became part of the Han Dynasty.
      In order to disintegrate the survivors of Fujian and Vietnam, Emperor Wu of the Han killed their nobles and elders. Some of the survivors fled to the Taiwan area, while the remaining part was isolated by the northern races, and finally disappeared in the Fujian area due to various reasons. This is why modern Fujianese contain a large amount of O3 in the north and a small part of O2 in Baiyue, but not M1 and M2 in the South Island.
      Today's Fujianese belong to the yellow race, the descendants of the fusion of the northern Han and Baiyue people, but not the descendants of the Austronesians. The Austronesians belong to the brown race or the brown white race, and their genetics are different from the modern Fujianese.

      @@Tempus0ptic South Korea is also turning into the fashion capital of Asia with the popularization of KBeauty and KPop fashion, though Shiseido still bigger than AmorePacific. There was even a proposal to build a chunnel that would connect Japan with South Korea, at Busan, like the Chunnel in England and France, though it looks like it won't happen anytime soon since Korean and Japanese government still don't get along so well. Japan and Britain are similar in the sense they are both island nations that drive on the left side of the road, with a still existing royal family, and a natural tendency to be good at queueing, apologizing for anything, and being super polite but very indirect people. However in the food and art scene, Japan is more like France. It has the most Michellin 3 star restaurants in the world, even ahead of France. Some Japanese sakes are made to be like luxury items like French wines are. Even some fruits and fungi. Japan also admires French cuisine, hailing it as the golden standard of Western cuisine. They love the French pastries, and implemented a lot of their technique into their own Japanese pastries, though baking was introduced to East Asia by the Portuguese. Japan has also produced prominent fashion designers like Rei Kawakubo, Yohji Yamamoto, Junya Watanabe, Issey Miyake, and Kenzo Takada who have built a career in Paris doing haute-couture and ready-to-wear. In terms of cleanliness, Japan is closer to Switzerland, and Scandinavian countries though (too much graffitti, cigarette buds, litter, trash, homeless people, pickpocketers, and dog shit in the streets of Paris compared to Tokyo). And in industrial might, it is closer to Germany, with a strong manufacturing economy. Not to mention, both Japan and Germany are rule obsessed, with a dark past in the 40s. Korea too is similar to Germany in this aspect, as they are an engineering powerhouse, not to mention Korea is divided into capitalist South and communist North, like how Germany was divided into capitalist West and communist East. In terms of attitude though, Korean probably closer to Polish people. They know what is like to be sandwiched between two great powers, being invaded by them, and now recently get the recognition they deserve in the world stage after years of hard work to rebuild their country. Many Koreans, like Poles, had to emmigrate their country in order to find a better future, and that they did, as their hard work has payed off, allowing them to assimilate well into their new homes, and improve their socioeconomic situation. They also have an intense drinking culture of hard liquor (soju and vodka are readily available), and have a cold and hot personality mix, as they may come off as a bit reserved and introverted sometimes (you know, the type of people who are not used to smiling to strangers and doing small talk with them), but once you get to know them closely, they a firecracker with an explosive firey temperament (Koreans and Poles seem to be rather impatient, especially when they teach, they don't wait for the slow student).

    I am quite fascinated by this topic. When I visited Taiwan in the 1990s I met an older gentleman up in the mountains who was speaking Japanese with his wife. I asked him in Japanese if he was Japanese. I was surprised when he told me he was a Christian missionary and member of one of the Taiwanese tribal peoples . . . not a Japanese man. Back in those days (the 1990s) there were still a lot of older men in Taiwan who spoke fluent Japanese. Any older men in their 80s almost invariably were fluent in Japanese. I guess nowadays that most of them are gone or extremely old. What happened in prehistory in the islands of Japan is murky. The Japanese archipelago was clearly populated from the south, north and east. Modern Japanese vary a lot in their appearance. This attests to the various migrations to the islands from Mainland Asia and elsewhere.

The Maori of the mid east coast of the South Island around Akaroa had a lot of contact with the French. In fact, the British and the French were both rushing to get Māori on their side to aid them with their attempts of settlement and colonisation, the Union Jack on our flag makes it obvious that the British prevailed, and to that I say, God save the King and long may he reign ♥️🇳🇿♥️🇬🇧♥️🇳🇿

    The Yayoi are the most interesting to me because they introduced bronze and horses to Japan. I have wondered about their origins, since their culture was like that of much of East Asia at the time, and they must have contributed their language to the islands. There are so many similarities between modern Japanese and the Altaic and Finno-Ugric languages that suggest to me a common origin. The Tibetan connection is truly ancient but recorded in their genes, and which means any language influence must also be ancient. Your video does a great job summarizing all the genetics and various influences on Japan, and I greatly appreciate all your research into this fascinating topic.

In fact in ancient times Pacific islanders from the Marianas islands called Chamorros in Micronesia would sail all they to the RYUKYU islands of Japan to quarry stones that they did not have on their islands to carve them into small disks to use as money. Since it was quarried so far away it did cost alot in those days. Alot of those small islands near Japan were also inhabited by Austronesians frm Micronesia.

    Could the Yayoi and thus Koreans be austroasiatic, due to haplogroup O1B2? Here’s my hypothesis:
    Yayoi started out as the Majiabang culture around Lake Tai at the mouth of the Yangtze River, being one of the Baiyue as one of many Yangtze River civilizations. The Majiabang, or proto-Yayoi, originally spoke a para-Austroasiatic language, as the O1b2 haplogroup is para-austroasiatic. Living alongside them were the Austro-Tai peoples, which later split into Kra-Dai and Austronesian. The proto-Yayoi language then became heavily intermixed with Austro-Tai, as they lived side by side with the austro-tai Hemudu culture. From there, the Austro-Tai family split into the Kra-Dai and Austronesian branches, with the Austronesian branch fleeing into Taiwan, and eventually parts of the Ryukyu Islands and Kyushu.
    During the Spring-and-Autumn period, the ruling para-Austronesians created the first Wu state, while the Kra-Dai peoples created the Chu state. and as such the language was mandated, having a lasting effect on the proto Yayoi’s para-Austroasiatic language. Thus, before the Han invasions, the original Japonic languages spoke by the Yayoi are a para-Austroasiatic language heavily influenced by Austronesian in its grammar and vocabulary.
    After the collapse of the Wu state, the Yayoi, and therefore carriers of haplogroup O1B2, fled by boat to the southern Korean Peninsula and Liaoning. In the southern Korean Peninsula, the Yayoi’s para-Austroasiatic language with an Austro-Tai substrate brought rice to the Koreanic (including the Goguryeoic) peoples, exchanging some vocabulary and becoming the same in grammar. Since the Koreanic peoples came from Manchuria and the Manchus also have O1B2, The Koreanic and Goguryeoic languages have got to be Para-Tungusic. This explains why Japanese is now an agglutinative SOV language and why Korean has seemingly Austronesian-like vocabulary for things relating to rice. This Yayoi language, a para-Austroasiatic language with an Austro-Tai substrate gained a Koreanic (and ultimately Kogureyoic, which all are Para-Tungusic), creating Pre-Proto-Japonic, and it’s sister Peninsular Japonic.
    During the Yayoi migration, the Yayoi came in contact with the Jomon, (Ainu must be some kind of Para-Eskimo-Aleut, which is probably also Para-Uralic) and the Hayato, which is Austronesian. Thus, Japonic gained another Austronesian Layer on top of its ancient Austro-Tai layer. In conclusion, the Japonic Languages are a Para-Austroasiatic language with an Austro-Tai substrate and Koreanic grammar with another layer of Austronesian from the Hayato and Para-Eskimo-Aleut/Para-Uralic from the Jomon.

    1:40 Korean and Japanese are not related in anyway, linguistics have failed to develope any linguistic evidence that can connect the two aside from gramatical similarities, vocabulary wise the cognates of Japanese and Korean are mostly borrowed words from each other or shared loanwords from China there are no words that seem to share common descent from a common ancestor, you could see what i mean if you look further at Korea native numbering system as compared to Japan
    Japan has
    1. Ichi
    2. Ni
    3. San
    4. Shi/Yon
    5. Go
    6. Roku
    7. Shichi/Nana
    8. Hachi
    9. Kyuu
    10. Juu
    While Korea has
    1. Hana
    2. Dul
    3. Set
    4. Net
    5. Daseot
    6. Yeoseot
    7. Ilgop
    8. Yeodeol
    9. Ahop
    10. Yeol
    Aside from two the Hana and Nana phonological similarities which can be explained by either contact or influence majority of the numbers seem to not come from a common ancestor due to lack of any phonological consistency for example Indo European languages all pronounce two/duo/dua in a very similar way or how Austronesians all call five lima , Korean also uses alot of "Eol" at the end of the numbers and in alot of words which is a huge phonological problem if you are trying to relate it to japonic.
    The theory goes is the Japonic existed in the southern half of Korea only due to evidence of Japonic place name in modern SK while this is not prominant in the north who mostly had Koreanic place names during ancient times as we know place names are conservative and easily preserved like for example Misisipi in the US is from native americans, meaning the original people in southern Koreans were Japonic speaking and were forced to either migrate or assimilate to the Korean speaking people, eventually Koreans will move southward along with the arrival of the Koreanic speaking rulers of the Three kingdoms and spread out the language and force Japonic into an island. Gaya and Tamna were probably the last bastions of Peninsular Japonic before being absorbed by Silla and Baekji whos some of the commoners probably spoke japonic bit they were forced to assimilate and there last spoken inside this 2 kingdoms until 4th ce.

    - so, the modern of japanese people right now is the mixture of jomon and yayoi maybe from intermarriage although yayoi more dominant maybe 90 percent yayoi and only 10 percent jomon. so, if you see japanese people right now they have characteristic of yayoi such as slit eyed, white skin but also inherit jomon characteristics such as round eyes, not too tall

I wish your could’ve covered more on the ancient artifacts from the Jomon period 縄文土器 and the kofun pyramids (or just simply tombs?) that’s shaped like giant keyholes, pretty trippy. Which the Japanese government prohibits the excavation on, even trippier. But I guess your contents are more linguistic based. Regardless I’m always enjoying your videos so thank you.

    The old Japanese language originated from the Korean, Kara(伽羅) language. But the Japanese government artificially changed the old Japanese language into the present one. For example, The following Korean verbs were transliterated into the old Japanese verbs:
    달(다)(tal)→taru(たる(垂る))(Old Japanese)→tareru(たれる(垂れる))(Present Japanese)
    굽(다)(kup)→kubu(くぶ(燒ぶ))(kubu)(Old Japanese)→kuberu(くべる(燒べる))(Present
    Japanese)
    갈(다)(kal)(the Kara language=Kyeongnam Dialect)→karu(枯る)→kareru(
    枯れる))(Present Japanese)
    The above Old Japanese verbs are the Kara language verbs, themselves, but the Present Japanese verbs are quite different from the old Japanese verbs.
    Some words the Japanese language can’t explain can be explained by the Korean language. Take a look at the following words:
    はるさめ(春雨)(harusame)=はる(春)(haru)+s+あめ(雨)
    ひさめ(氷雨)(hisame)=ひ(氷)(hi)+s+あめ(雨)
    The Japanese language can’t explain what /s/ is but the /s/ is a Korean genitive case, ㅅ(=s) as in 나뭇닢(namusnipʰ): 나뭇닢(namusnipʰ)=나무(namu)+ㅅ(s)+닢(nipʰ). If the Japanese language didn’t originate from the Korean language, this /s/ can’t be explained.
    If you want to know more, read the book, 강낙중의 ‘일본어의 기원-일본어는 가야어다(2012)(Kang Nak-Joong’s ‘The Origin of the Japanese Language-the Japanese language is the Kara language). You will know all the phonological rules which changed the Kara language into the Japanese language. Thanks for your reading.

    These words suggest some early contact between the two groups, but a lack of cognates among basic vocabulary (as opposed to cultural vocabulary) indicates that the languages are probably not related. In my view, the similarities come from contact, not common descent.

      Now, I think it's most likely. I guess the Yayoi people ( possibly Altaic speaking) became kind of ruling position ( most nobles had Yayoi-like face ), maybe for the superiority in the social system, but lack of the population make them to accept lots of vocabulary except the basic grammar from the Jomon residents ( possibly speaking Austronesian). Though, this is nothing but a guess.
      Here is another example about colors (white/black/red/blue) (Sakiyama 2012).
      The comparison is rather with proto-(West)-Malay-Polynesian but still makes sense.
      *sinaR (pMP)/ *silak(PWMP) (light)> sira,siro (white, whiten)
      *gəlap (pWMP) (darkness) > kura (dark) / kuro (black) / kure (sunset)

    I definitely believe Japanese people are Austronesians that got assimilated into another ethnic group but I believe that the other group the Ainus aren't 100% Austronesian. Researching their culture, they believe in bears, owls and throat sang, which most Austronesians don't do. They were said to have travelled on foot "southward" to Japan and the way they wear their clothing isn't really Austronesian but similar to Native Siberians, or Tungusic people. We also cannot say tattooing is 100% Austronesian because Native Americans and Native Siberians practiced this as well. Also, this is just a speculation of mine but the "Kumaso" people (Bear people said to be Austronesian) can oddly be translated in Tagalog. Knowing how Tagalog language rule is usually if Kung is going to be combined with another word we change the N to M and drop the G like Kumbaga-Kung Baga. Kumaso - "Kung Aso" = "What if, dog" or "maybe a dog". This could have been how ancient people saw bears and since bears are in canine family it's not far off to think they might have been a really big dog back then. My conclusion is Japanese people are Hayato, Kumaso, Azumi (All said to be Austronesians) that got assimilated into Yayoi ethnic group, whilst Ainu are related to Native Americans, Native Siberians or Tungusic people. Maybe.
