Where are the Japanese descended from?

There is no conclusion about the national origin of the Japanese. Most scholars believe that it is a cross between people from different sources. The Japanese are rare hybrids in human history. As early as the late Paleolithic period, when the Japanese archipelago was still connected with the Asian continent, primitive people lived here, and their descendants are the Ainu people today. About 654.38 million years ago, the Japanese archipelago began to separate from the Asian continent, and many immigrants moved in from the sea one after another, which became the foundation of the Yamato nation. They mainly include Tungusic people from Siberia and northeastern China, Malays from Nanyang Islands, Indosinians from Indian zhina Peninsula, Wuyue people from the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and Han Chinese and Koreans who moved in around A.D. Because of the different time and place of settlement of each group of immigrants, although they have formed a unified nation after thousands of years of mixed living, there are still many local differences in traditional culture, lifestyle and physical characteristics.
