waters. Jomon culture first
arose in Japan at least 12,000
years ago and perhaps as early

islands of Japan were
connected to the Asian
mainland. The nomadic
patterns of the Jomon people

 Yayoi Period
弥生時代
Aileen Kawagoe wrote in Heritage of
Japan: “We do not know what the
Yayoi people called themselves
because they did not have writing,
but we do know that the Chinese of
the Former and Later Han dynasties
of China called them “the people of
Wa”. The Yayoi people were taller,
lighter built and had slenderer faces
than the Jomon inhabitants who had
occupied the Japanese islands
before them. The Yayoi culture
established itself, first in the south —
in northern Kyushu, spreading
quickly northeastwards along the
Sannin coast and as far as the Kanto
plain. Artifact unearthed by
archaeologists include Yayoi pottery;
remains of Yayoi architecture and
settlements; iron and bronze
weapons; bronze bells, bronze
mirrors and coins; iron-tipped and
other farming tools; carbonized rice
and pollen remains and the remains
of the rice fields; graves with new
prestigious goods.
