Hello KZread community, I am an Ainu from Russia, Sakhalin. We are the native population of northern Japan and southeastern Siberia. We are descedants of the Northeast Asian Okhotsk and a paleolithic population from Central Asia which migrated to Japan more than 30,000 years ago. The Northeast Asian Okhotsk people were related to other Northeast Asians and Native Americans, while the paleolithic Central Asians are not closely related to any modern group. The paleolithic Central Asians contributed the "European-like look" as they share some genes with Europeans and Middle Easterners, but not all Ainu had such "European-like look". The majority always looked Northeast Asian or a mix of the two looks. The Ainu language and culture originated largely from the Northeast Asian Okhotsk people, thus we have many similarities to other Northeast Asians, Siberians and Native Americans. It is a misconception that all Ainu are hairy or look European. We do not. The majority of historical Ainu and of modern Ainu is similar to other people around the Sea of Okhotsk. Europeans exaggarated the "European" look among Ainu. To sum up: We Ainu people came from the combination of the Northeast Asian Okhotsk culture and a paleolithic population which arrived from Central Asia. I am happy that other people are interested in the Ainu history, culture and people. Thank you. :)

@@Sarah.Riedel Hi! I also find it very interesting and not a coincidence; the same tradition is widespread among Berber women populations of North Sahara.. What is interesting for me, is the wisdom that lies beneath this traditions: the lower part of the mouth and the chin area happen to be related to the reproductive system in the Chinese acupuncture face mapping! Have you ever noticed some boils on your chin area during the pre-menstrual period? That is due to ormonal change; if you have cronic boils there, it might be a sign of ovarian cysts; so tattoing it might have been a sort of preventive medicine, to keep the reproductive system healthy? I like the idea of this beautiful ancestors people knowing very well how to keep the body harmonius and healthy.. Tattoo or piercing as preventive medicine was a real thing; For example pirates hearings was not for beauty, the hole was made in a point of the ear that it's connected to the eyes, and it seems it was made to achieve better sight... Also Altai mummies and our Otzi man of the Alps, had tattoed points on the back, in correspondence of acupressure points

@@Sarah.Riedel Well, the Inuit as Sarah pointed out, have a similar culture. The Inuits also came from Kamchatka. Which is the big protruding landmass that's near Hokkaido and the Kuril Islands. There are also small Ainu populations on Kamchatka that came from Hokkaido. It's very likely that the Plynesians, Inuits, and Ainu; maybe even possibly the Jomon or further back, had contact with the Ainu. Furthermore, the matrilineal X Chromozone for the Ainu comes from the Okhotsk People of Siberia. This means these Siberian people could have passed through Inuit populations on their way to Hokkaido, and intermingled with the Jomon and Ainu Ancestors. This would carry the similar tradition found in the Inuits down to Hokkaido. I Don't know much about the Polynesians, so I don't know if there's a direct relation there, or if it's just convergent cultural evolution. Or, they could have gotten these cultural similarities from the Cs, assuming that the Cs were in China, Korea, and Japan; where they would go to get to Japan.

I think it is cool too. But I think I speak for the ethnically conscious third of Americans when I say that we're super interested in obscure groups. Part of it is just curiosity about somebody who is different, but most of it is we want to learn things that our own peoples have lost over time that are still preserved in isolated groups. There's a section of the Quallah Boundary Land Trust that is kind of remote. They maintain a lot of old traditions there and I plan to go there alone once I'm able to afford a horse in order to learn the traditional way of living. (Horses are more practical in the back country and cheaper than a jeep.) My ancestors are on the tribal rolls and I still have the same family name passed down. So even though I don't look Indian, I can prove my kinship. It's probably similar for you. A Great Grandparent is not enough to look like the people that they came from. And you'd have to go to an out of the way place to learn the old ways too. Japan's a bit better about roads though so you probably don't need a horse.

Interesting Historical Fact for anyone interested: One of the most contributing person to the study of the Ainu was Bronislaw Pilsudski, who also happened to be the older brother of Jozef Pilsudski, who won Polands independence. Bronislaw was actually involved in an Assassination Plot on Tsar Alexander III, alongside Lenin's brother of all people, and was found guilty and was exiled to Sakhalin, where he would spend a decade. There he grew fascinated by their unique culture, and studied them for several years. In 1903 he recorded the Ainu language for the first time on audio. From these original recordings an Ainu dictionary of over a thousand words was made, which was translated into over ten languages. Pilsudski also wrote down the myths, culture, music and customs of the Ainu. He also married an Ainu woman, and had a son and daughter with her. Eventually he returned to Europe after the Russo-Japanese war started, and died in Paris in 1918. A funny result of this adventure was that since Jozef Pilsudski himself only had daughters, the only male member of the family was Bronislaws son, who moved to Japan, and so the last Pilsudski's are Japanese, not Polish.

If you want to read about the Yamato-Emishi Wars, (and why the Yamato only won because of a zurg rush, but then some hybrid Emishi-Yamato people rebelled and temporarily made their own kingdom) you will need to read the Court Histories of the Japanese Royal Family which are widely available in the form of carefully crafted books (which mostly leave stuff out that makes them look bad, of course). One of them is the Nihon Shoki for the first few wars, and then after that is another book I have completely forgotten the name of that talks about the civil war that led to the Kamakura Period. The Kamakura Shoggunate was founded and the Samurai class established because of that war which was the final large scale conflict pitting the Emishi against the Yamato. This war also started the ghost stories about the youkai Gassho Dokoro with the Fujiwara* princess allegedly creating the youkai from the hungry ghosts of those civilians wrongfully killed by the Kamakura soldiers in order to get revenge on the Kamakura leaders. *not the same Fujiwara that are related to the royal family of Japan, different Fujiwara family that was from Emishi heritage with a few Yamato nobles thrown in who were also not from the Fujiwara.

His video isn't detailed, it's ignorant. He implies that modern Japanese people are the "new migrants". Yet this is false, Japanese people of today are all mixed with Jomon, no pure Yayoi people exist anymore and haven't existed in Japan for at least 2000+ years. DNA tests show that all Japanese people are a mixture of Jomon and Yayoi, just to different degrees. The modern Japanese didn't come over, they are literally the mixed result of the people who came over with the Jomon people. Secondly he claims that Jomon culture is nothing like "Japanese" culture, against he is trying to imply the groups are totally different and never mixed. This is false, the mixed Japanese people (all Japanese people) have a religion called Shinto, a large part of Shinto is based on Jomon animalism. Parts of the Japanese language and culture are also Jomon Japanese in origin. This wasn't a case of Yayoi coming in and just wiping out people (like European imagine), it was a result of being superior likely on a cultural level, though the Jomon were still very resilient and not mere primitives and a lot of mixing and breeding resulted and that's why the Japanese DNA is so mixed with Jomon to this very day.

The Emishi are likely genetic predecessors of the Ainu, but hunter gatherer culture on the Japanese archipelago changed over time. They merged with the Okhotsk culture which has now vanished. Some Ainu practices only date to the medieval period. Patriarchal family structure among Ainu emerged in the Tokugawa period as they interacted with Yamato Japanese.

yes hello I am a half Yakut woman haplogroup C4a1. That half of my family looks pretty East Asian, and I've heard we descend from "proto Siberians" and much much later Steppe people fleeing the tumult of the Golden Horde. I've also heard we're more closely related to Ainu and Tibetan people than any other groups in Asia, though that doesn't make sense because Mongolians and Kazakhs also look like us, though I find our faces tend to be more narrow, hair is often bushier (especially with age), and skin is often darker (though nowadays people tend to make an effort to be pale). Wonderful video, I always get excited about well researched content on North East Asian peoples, and new Explainer videos, of course!

ryukenb2k The "African" groups that are at the root of Human ancestry are from Ethiopia, with the Bantus being just one branch. Basically those ancestral groups had genetic adaptations similar to what one would find among today's Amharic, Tigre and Somali peoples, and their descendants evolved in minor ways to local environments. Fun fact: Bantus and Australian aboriginal peoples are the branches farthest apart in genetic relation, but both groups evolved similar physiological adaptations to their environment

The composer who created a lot of the distinctive music for the Godzilla movies claimed he got the themes from his Ainu ancestors. Primitive, almost dream like. When I was a kid in the 60's I thought that was just the way Japanese music sounded. Only later did I discover it was just as strange to them as it was to me. It was, more or less, Ainu music.

The AR/Liberalist Exchange Population-theories and genetics are proven by science, classifying people simply by their looks is unscientific and can easily lead to wrong assumptions or made up classifications that put people of one colour above others.

The AR/Liberalist Exchange I didn’t say that its white supremacy when someone thinks of black people as black or african.
I said that many people will link the skin colour of people to other unrelated factors like their intelligence. This easily leads to people linking many unrelated traits to a certain skin colour, which can lead to concepts like white supremacy. And thats the problem.
Seeing people as the colour they are is not a problem, but linking unrelated traits to peoples looks is the problem, which is what I meant in my original comment.

(Also I think, some people tried to make assumptions about the ainus original heritage by judging their looks and thereby ignoring genetics and other factors.)

@@yourlocaltoad5102 You are correct. You see what you're taking about taking place in North Africa, as people with LIGHT SKIN are automatically classified as WHITE/CAUCASOID/CAUCASIAN. However, those same LIGHT SKINNED PEOPLE North Africans would easily be classified as Black in America. GOOGLE: Vanessa Williams, Lena Horne, Clay Thompson, Stephen Curry, or Vin Diesel. Just like former U.S. President Barrack Obama, all of these people have one parent that's a GENETICALLY DOMINANT BLACK PERSON. And since a GENETICALLY DOMINANT GENE will always be expressed in the presence of a GENETICALLY RECESSIVE GENE, they are classified racially as BLACK. However, EUROCENTRIC MINDED RACISTS go out of their way to avoid dealing with that GENETIC PRINCIPLE in North Africa. Now there's another twist to this BS. In East Africa, specifically Ethiopia, they do just the opposite. They claim that the GENETICALLY DOMINANT INDIGENOUS BLACK AFRICAN ETHIOPIANS are members of the most COLD WEATHER ADAPTED, GENETICALLY RECESSIVE & MELANIN DEFICIENT of all humans, the WHITE/CAUCASOID/CAUCASIAN RACE. How in hell can Ethiopians be WHITE/CAUCASOID/CAUCASIAN when Ethiopians have GENETICALLY DOMINANT PHENOTYPE/FEATURES(WOOLLY/TIGHTLY CURLED HAIR/BROWN/DARK/BLACK SKIN) that EXTREMELY COLD WEATHER ADAPTED, GENETICALLY RECESSIVE & MELANIN DEFICIENT WHITES/CAUCASOID'S/CAUCASIANS can't even produce? I've already encountered one EUROCENTRIC MINDED IDIOT on this site that claimed WHITES/CAUCASOID'S/CAUCASIANS migrated into Africa & they all turned BLACK. In his DELUSIONAL MIND, that's how BLACKS came to dominant the African continent.

Lovely video, knew of this years ago from a friend who lived in Japan for a long time and he told me about it. But the same stories are told by some of my Philippino friends. They have told me of the mountain people there who are also different and are described as the original people of the islands.

South east Asia is a good example of what could have happened. The waves of migration pushed the original inhabitants in more and more secluded parts. In south east Asia you can literally see the waves of migration the more you climb in altitude. The group C probably inhabited a much bigger part of the territory then was pushed into some corners by the other migration waves.

I am Japanese, and I can tell you that in the past, the Ainu was seen as "Not real Japanese" but they where "granted" omission by the samurai lords to live out their lifes in Hokkaido the North Island of Japan. My mother is from Hokkaido, and her father had a very close relationship with the Ainu, and learned their language and culture. The Ainu culture is very much a part of the Japanese culture today, and most educated Japanese are aware of this fact. Most of what the Japanese have build up as being Japanese culture today, comes from Bushido, the way of the samurai, and that's why there was so much focus on only this period of time in the Japanese history. But today the Ainu is accepted, just as the thought of the modern Japanese are a mix of a lot of different races and cultures. If you ever visit Hokkaido Japan, you will find Ainu culture and relicts everywhere.

I love this! I've been very interested in the Ainu, as they're not widely known, and their language and culture are poorly documented relative to the other ethnocultural groups in northeastern Asia.
