Ainu ping.
bfltr, sounds interesting. For some reason, some of the images remind me of the aboriginal people of Australia. Shows all of us are a lot more connected than we often think.
Ainu it!
Ainu bump
I have noticed one sometimes sees a Japanese who looks fairly European.
If that last pic is related to Kennewick Man and Kennewick Man is related to the Ainu it would mean the Ainu are French which in turn explains why they have been so poorly treated by the Japanese.
Or they have similar ancestor branches. I would love to see the DNA tracing on the relationship.
...the Eno people...
...or the Uno people...
With the discovery of those Caucasian, or Caucasian mix mummies found in China, it is easy for me to believe that back in the day, people got around.
I, too, would love to see that DNA tracing.

google:Ainu and the Pleiadians- a little goofy but if you like outerspace that’s for you :)
The medieval shoguns were “barbarian-fighting generals.” Who were the “barbarians”? Ainu or another group?
Refer to blam, he’s the resident Ainu expert.
Which Shogunate? There was more than one...
Muawiyah has some interesting ideas about the Ainu too.
The oldest human remains found in the Americas were recently "discovered" in the storeroom of Mexico's National Museum of Anthropology. Found in central Mexico in 1959, the five skulls were radiocarbon dated by a team of researchers from the United Kingdom and Mexico and found to be 13,000 years old. They pre-date the Clovis culture by a couple thousand years, adding to the growing evidence against the Clovis-first model for the first peopling of the Americas.
Of additional significance is the shape of the skulls, which are described as long and narrow, very unlike those of modern Native Americans.

Yes, there were several families of shoguns, starting in the Middle Ages, with the last family (Tokugawa) being deprived of power as late as the 1860s, but the original meaning of the term reportedly was “barbarian-fighting general.”
