Hello!
Me interests Period Jayoj (in Japan. 弥生時代. — Yayoy, Jayoj) — an ancient epoch in the history of Japan.
The traditional historiography considers as the beginning of an epoch of Jayoj III century BC, and the end — III century d.C. Its periodization is based on dating and classification of pottery of the given time piece. It shares on three stages — early (III—I century BC), average (I century BC — I century on d.C.) and late (I—III century d.C.).
However a number of modern Japanese researchers from the National museum of history and ethnography specify in probability of the beginning of the period of Jayoj 500 years earlier — in IX century BC As proofs are cited the given redatings of the oldest ceramics of "culture of Jayoj» by an old radio carbon method and new method АСМ (an accelerator of spectrometry of weights).
The separate tribes of new newcomers thus scattered on islands from continent («пуёские» the proto-Japanese-Korean tribes concerning the East Asian branch of Mongoloid race), were long time in obvious minority, being lost among radical tribes. It is represented quite obvious that newcomers have made considerable cultural impact, promoting distribution of irrigation agriculture and formation of culture of new type (extended in Period Jayoj).
2) the Altay origin of Japanese language Interests also.
The Japanese concerns languages of the Altay family, пуёской groups, along with modern Korean and пуёскими (древнекорейскими) languages, with considerable австронезийским a substratum and Chinese адстратом. The grammatical structure of Japanese language is rather close to the Korean. And it is a lot of words of language of Koguryo (an ancient princedom in territory of the North Korea) and, to a lesser degree, others пуёских languages, are found by parallels in ancient-japanese language.
The lexicon of Japanese language can be compared with lexicon Altay or Austonezia languages, and comparison to the Altay languages, in particular with languages Puyo groups admits to the most probable. As well as Korean, Japanese has tested strong lexical influence of the Chinese language, however in view of that this influence basically has affected lexicon and almost hasn't mentioned grammar, Japanese language don't carry to sino-Tibetan.
3) the contemporary history and the international relations of Japan, an epoch of Tajsyo 大正時代 Also interests
