[edit] Japan article

The reason why the Japan article is now being accused of weasel words is because references are being deleted. Please do not add to this problem by doing the same. Please read these references over. Even if you do not like what these researches state please do not delete them to mislead the Japan article in a certain direction. This is only the tip of the iceberg if you go in to the archive section their are over 30 more references about Korea introducing culture and technology in ancient times. I do not know if you are Japanese, but please let logic and facts control the content of the article, and not some sort of odd loyalty to disregarded theories from the 1930s.


1. Many people from Korea emigrated to Japan. Those people brought rice cultivation and metal work to Japan during the Late Jomon Period. Jomon people started to learn and practice those new things. The cultural effect from Korea was reflected in the shape of earthenware vessels, tools, technology and society in Yayoi period. http://www.mnsu.edu/emuseum/prehistory/japan/yayoi/yayoi.html

2. According to one estimate, Yayoi Japan received several million immigrants from Korea, utterly overwhelming the genetic contribution of Jomon people (thought to have numbered around 75,000 just before the Yayoi transition). If so, modern Japanese are descendants of Korean immigrants who developed a modified culture of their own over the last 2,000 years. http://www.asianresearch.org/articles/2350.html

3. The Yayoi period brought also the introduction of iron and other modern ideas from Korea into Japan. http://www.japan-guide.com/e/e2131.html

4. Unlike Jomon pottery, Yayoi pottery was very similar to contemporary South Korean pottery in shape. Many other elements of the new Yayoi culture were unmistakably Korean and previously foreign to Japan, including bronze objects, weaving, glass beads, and styles of tools and houses. http://www.faculty.fairfield.edu/faculty/hodgson/Courses/so191/PacificRimReadings/JapaneseRoots.html

5. In this sense, a very great part of Japan's origins, both culturally and ethnically, can be traced back to Korea. http://www.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/ getarticle.pl5?nn20020312b6.htm

See Korea - A Religious History by: James Huntley Grayson p. 33

Buddhism went from Northern Wei (China) to Goguryeo/Baekje (Korea) to Yamato (Japan).

  • 372 Buddhism is introduced to Korea and Goguryeo (see Korean Buddhism for this)
  • 560 Goguryeo monk Hyep'yon (Keiben in Japanese) goes to Japan
  • 554 - 587 King Widok of Baekje sends more sutras, statues, monks, nuns, teachers, and artisans to Japan

PEAKCHE OF KOREA AND THE ORIGIN OF YAMATO JAPAN

[1] Origin of 陶器 tōki (advanced pottery?) in Japan traced to be the Izumo region, but originated in 新羅 (Silla). This source cites the stories about a Silla prince as well as about Susanoo in the Kojiki.

Please read these over and let me know what you think.--Tyler 12:07, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
