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!

I used to work with a Japanese man. I always thought his ancestry was Eastern European. His name was Ishi and I wasn' smart enough to realize that was Japanese. He was full blooded too.

I have noticed one sometimes sees a Japanese who looks fairly European.

Not to be confused with the Inu people...

...the Eno people...

...or the Uno people...

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?

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BASQUE AND AINU

[Shigarian]

Thanks for this amazing post — I had heard of Kennewick Man long ago (high school in the ‘90s, probably), but never knew of the connection to the Ainu.

My wife is Ainu, and while she has beautiful multicolored hair and lighter skin that most Japanese, she’s not the least bit interested in the language or traditional culture. (Her grandmother, the last to experience real Ainu life in a ‘kotan’ or village, died long ago.) So it’s up to me to study all this stuff. What a pleasant surprise it is to find more people who are interested in the Ainu.

Thanks and ‘iyayraykere’ again!

I Ainu them once upon a time...
