/his/ where is the urheimat of the Japanese?

Where the hell are Japanese and the Japanese language from?

All I know so far is the Jomon were an Ainu-like people who got pushed further and further north by the Yayoi

The Yayoi fought in Chinese style with mass spear infantry, and brought rice cultivation.

From googling, people have said the Yayoi were either Buyeo/Goguryeo Korean, a Vietic tribe who had contact with the Chinese, or a mix of both.
>>
Yayoi are probably pro-chinese sailors from early on before china was established

Jomon lived in Japan probably for tens of thousands of years.

Their ydna shows an ancient connection with tibetans but autosomally they are no longer related to any special degree.

Many like to assume Jomon are related to Abos based off their teeth having sudadonty but truth is most asians had this tooth structure before migrations of later asian groups like the yayoi.

Yayoi and other sinodanty groups are probably related based on similar ydna.

From my knowledge, I think the most widely believed theory is that Chinese bronze-age technology was brought to Japan by those seeking refuge from the Qin unification's legalist practices, possibly through the Korean peninsula. Regardless, there is a definite contact with the Chinese in regard to language; though the ancient Japanese had their own language, the written script was Chinese until onnade was developed (I believe this was called man'yogana) . Onnade was considered woman's script until several important texts were written in it, namely Tale of Genji and the Tosa Diary.

The meme about the Ainu being white came from european armchair anthropologists misinterpreting the accounts of ill-informed sailors. The Ainu at the time were lighter skinned than the Japanese, but only because most Japanese, as sailors and farmers, were /very/ sun-tanned, and the Ainu lived further north in the forests of Hokkaido and Sakhalin/Karafuto.

Without environmental factors, the Ainu were quite a bit darker than the Japanese – and taking into account the fact that they aren't pure Jomon, but rather the contact culture between Jomon and Okhotsk (and to a degree, Yayoi, if their ancestry includes the migration of the Emishi), it can be assumed that the Jomon were even swarthier.

It is true that they had some "Caucasoid" features, but these were just retentions (non-epicanthic eyelids) and shared innovations (heavy body hair), kind of like how some Siberian populations independently developed brown hair.

"Kokoro" is a great example of onomatopoeia, being the sound of a heart pumping. Not exactly a member of the class of words you'd want to use in comparing languages. With this logic I could make an argument for Latin or Greek being Altaic, based on the example of "cor" and "kardíā" – if we didn't have related languages to compare against, as with Japanese, we could argue for any number of sound shifts to arrive at the desired etymon. We do have Ryukyuan to compare against, but it's too close to provide much real insight, giving only "kukuru" (which nevertheless complicates the matter, forcing proto-Altaic to yield ö and ü, then o/u and o/u, from the same root, which doesn't seem to mesh with the Altaic cornerstone of vowel harmony).
>>
>>264910
Language families are determined by grammatical syntax and internal logic not phonology. Japanese has a high degree of phonological similarity to Germanic and Romance languages relative to other east Asian languages, but this is not a relevant coincidence as the grammar structures couldn't be farther apart.

This man is hardly representative of a "pure" Ainu phenotype. See pic related for somebody closer. The Ainu, as a distinct group, no longer exist. Almost every surviving member of the group has heavy Japanese or Russian ancestry, and so looks the part. A modern Ainu man basically just looks like a Japanese man with thick eyebrows and a fat nose – which isn't uncommon in the Japanese.

Curly hair, beards, bushy eyebrows, aquiline noses and "round" eyes are surprisingly common in Japan, and are indicative of the people's Jomon ancestry, which they share with the Ainu.

I've heard the Jomon/Ainu described variously as negrito, australoid, and proto-mongoloid, and honestly none of the terms quite fit. They appear to have been their own highly distinct ethnos, with their own particular phenotype.

>particle system
exactly like japanese, korean uses markers attached to the end of a noun to denote what relationship it has to other nouns and the verb, like subject, object, preposition, etc.

>word order
also like japanese, korean uses SOV, intermixed with particles for relationship clarity.

i'm not an expert on korean nor a linguist, but here's an example.

>i love you
>JP: watashi ga kimi wo aishiteimasu
>watashi (I) ga (subject particle) kimi (you) wo (object particle) aishiteimasu (verb)
>KR: naneun noereul saranghaeyo
>na (I) neun (subject particle) neo (you) reul (object particle) saranghaeyo
>>

oh i also wanna add that they both have various levels of politeness speech depending on the speaker's relationship. korean doesn't have anything as extreme as a special dialect for addressing the emperor, but it's heavily present. confucianism i guess.
>>
>>265024
SVO with particles 는 or 은 denoting subject, others denoting object/place/time/type of counted thing/state of being/etc. Very regular syllable stress with every word having stress exclusviely on rirst syllable. All verbs end with 다 as the suffix in root form. Formality in address denoted by pronoun and modified suffix on the end obejct word/verb.

you can use ga as well actually. wa is the topic marker, technically, not just the subject.
i only used ga to match it exactly with the korean neun, so they would both be subject particles.

korean has been using its own alphabet since the 15th century, abstracted from kanji radicals and representations of the mouth, formed into syllabic word blocks. they still use kanji on rare occasions, but it's largely irrelevant and certainly not necessary.

Is it possible that the Japanese language was developed by people ethnically similar to the Ainu, who were subjugated by Korean horsemen a la the Anglo-Saxon conquest but kept the language a la Normans?

I know that most Japanese people have Southern Chinese ancestry, so there were likely multiple periods of settlement.

Because they speak a Tunguscic language, is it possible that the modern Ainu language was a recent arrival from Siberia?

Some Japanese are related to Koreans, but those are probably the ones in the southwest near Korea. And even they have Jomon, Malayo-Polynesian, and possibly Han Chinese and a dash of Tungusic/Mongolic.

The northern Japanese are a mix of Emishi, Ainu, and probably Siberian tribes from long ago.

The genesis of the Ainu culture, dominant cultural influence listed first:

>Ainu = Satsumon + Okhotsk (Nivkh/Orok, neolithic Siberian maritime)

>Satsumon = Emishi + Zoku-Jōmon (late Hokkaido Jōmon)

>Emishi = Yayoi + Final Jōmon

The Emishi, rather than being a Jōmon hunter-gatherer relict population, were essentially a northern derivation of Yayoi culture. They were equestrian and agricultural, and within an archaeological context clearly descended from Yayoi, even though they constituted a separate ethnos from the Japanese.

In terms of material culture, the Ainu are arguably closer to the Yayoi than to the Jōmon, although they retained much more influence of the latter than the Japanese did. Contrary to popular belief, they were agrarian, though not on the mass-scale of the Japanese. Many aspects of their culture are identical to that of Japanese Matagi hunter villages, though the nature of the influence is not known.

"Yayoi" is often misconstrued to mean Yamato or Japanese, in a racial sense, when in reality the culture outpaced them demographically, spreading from Kyushu to the northern tip of Honshu before the Yamato people even existed as such. An easy parallel is that of neolithic Europe, where agriculture spread from the Near East faster than genetics, or at least in disproportion to genetic influence.

Yayoi itself is a composite culture – salient influences in material culture are the native Jōmon and peninsular Korean cultures like Mumun, in addition to a vague (though influential) population from the area of the Yangtze. Toponyms that appear to be Japonic have been identified in the southern tip of the Korean peninsula, indicating a shared linguistic heritage, but many hallmarks of Yayoi (and subsequent Yamato) culture seem to come from south of the Yangtze. Additionally, many aspects of non-agricultural life, as well as religion at large, appear to have been derived from the Jōmon. There clearly was no singular origin for the Yayoi.

I know that this is a meme question, but I'm too autistic to not respond.

Had the Jōmon survived as a people into modern times, they would likely have been considered their own separate race – at the very least, they would have constituted a unique genetic cluster within East Asia.

They were sundadonts, which means that they were part of the larger Asian continuum before they were isolated. Sundadonty evolved into sinodonty in populations north of Indochina and Taiwan, so the Jōmon were cut off before that change occurred. If we assume they had Y haplogroup D, as some studies suggest, this would further the idea that they had been isolated for a very long time.

If the Ainu and Japanese inherited their many peculiarities of phenotype from the Jōmon, even "watered-down" by significant NE Asian (in the Japanese) and Siberian (in the Ainu) influences, then they would have been a very distinct people.

It's impossible to say whether or not their skin was fair, as there are too many factors obscuring it now. Even with the Ainu there appears to be a great deal of variation in natural skin tone, some very pale while others very swarthy, and with the modern reduction and mixing of their population it's likewise impossible to say how much of it is "native."

i just don't think the concept of "isolates" is tenable.
the only possible way for a language isolate to develop would be that the speakers, as a group, must have been completely cut off from every other group out there, and the isolation would have to have happened before human language even began.
if that's tenable at all, then it certainly wouldn't be among the japanese or koreans, both of which we have very clear evidence of their origins.
>>
>>267469
"Racial purity" really doesn't exist. Nearly all populations are mixed, some are less obvious because neighboring populations happen to look similar.

AFAIK most Japanese right-wingers assert that Japan is a "unique mixture" of mainland and indigenous peoples. The popular thinking in Japan is that earlier Jomon people were conquered by a wave of Yayoi immigrants from China or Manchuria (BUT NOT KOREA!!!!!!!!!!), whereas the reality is a lot more complicated.

Much like Britain, Japan is an island which has been populated by various peoples who assimilated into one broad culture. The Yayoi, for instance, certainly don't represent the only Northeast Asian lineage of the modern Japanese people.

The Austronesian hypothesis (as an explanation for the Japanese language) has very little actually backing it, although it is a pet favorite of certain linguists. The vague influence from the Yangtze, or just south of it, is just that – vague. We can identify certain cultural peculiarities from it, and from them assume that it had significant influence on the incipient Yayoi, but that's about it.

It would be premature to say that the culture was Austronesian, especially since archaeologically the link would be tentative at best (other archaeological cultures within the general area and period have been suggested as potentially proto-Austronesian). In terms of Chinese and Japanese historiography, there's nothing to suggest that particular identity over any other. In fact, traditional Japanese accounts of their ancestry suggests that this "vague influence" was actually Chinese in nature – claiming descent from King Taibo of Wu would place them right at the mouth of the Yangtze (and the emergence of Yayoi would roughly coincide with the collapse of Wu).

You could certainly take it as a possible route of Vietic influence, on a cultural scale, but you would have to find justification for it elsewhere, as on its own it does not evidence that.

<Hector is rice to eat do> while chinese is Hector eat rice.

What? It's a very popular case when one family replaces the other and tgere is only one language left. Also you have to keep in mind that in pre-modern times, most of languages were grouped into little families, which could very easily be eradicated (take New Guinea or California for example)

>From googling, people have said the Yayoi were either Buyeo/Goguryeo Korean
Um no obviously the Japanese were created by the Kami and have always existed, the Koreans are just mongrel offshoots who had to be brought up to civilization (and even then have still not taken to it) in the last century by the ethnically superior Japanese.

Most Japanese can't speak English if their lives depended on it. And they wouldn't go to an English board because why would they? Japanese like to stick with their own kind.

Based on Alexander Vovin, the foremost historical linguist of Northeast Asia of our time, has said that the language ancestral to Japanese originated from the central and southern part of the Korean peninsula (note: not KOREA) that was far different from modern Korean as well as the Koguryo, Puyo, Silla, and Paekche languages based on local toponyms found in the southern and central part of the peninsula

He also found some evidence linking that an extinct language spoken on Jeju, the small island southwest of Korea, with Japanese based on some cognates.

If you try to base it off the idea of Koguryo and Puyo horseriders, that comes from Beckwith in 2007, which you can ignore all together as his theories have been discredited

Vovin is anti-Altaic, he proposes a sprachbund of languages in a common region that influenced each other for thousands of years, which I think makes the most sense.

Maybe Turkic and Mongolic are connected genetically, but not so much Tungusic along with Korean and Japanese. But, you know Mongolic was heavily influenced by Tungusic, but you can't prove a common ancestor. Tungusic also heavily influenced Korean, but they weren't exactly horseriders, but semi-pastoral hunters and fisherman with basic knowledge of agriculture.

It was only after being influenced by the para-Mongolic Xianbei and Khitan that they took up horseback riding. Those people weren't horseback riders from the beginning

LET ME DROP YOU SOME KNOWLEDGE BOMBS

Anyone in this thread ever had the thought that a lot of Japanese features (Hair, face) and colour when working hard under the sun reminds you of native americans?

And natives from pretty much any other country that shares similar geological features.

No?

Consider yourself knowledge bombed.
