"The Yayoi have a good claim to having been, at least in part, the same people as the Hakka. Those are the guys whose constant predations into China drove the Chinese to build the Great Wall."

The Hakka, in five migrations, moved from Northern China to Southern China and even today are know as 'the guests'. When they began the migrations in the north, many had Caucasian features and those with those features were killed and persecuted all the way across China.

The deal was they had a "bridge" on their noses. The story goes that the Chinese emperor killed off everyone with a bridge.

This is believed to be apocryphal.

Still, modern Japanese may be found who have a "bridge". There's also a vast number of them who have "beep" noses like Charley Brown.
