How long have the Ainu people lived in japan?
The Ainu people were granted automatic Japanese citizenship in 1899. The Ainu were becoming increasingly marginalised on their own land - over a period of only 36 years, the Ainu went from being a relatively isolated group of people to having their land, language, religion and customs assimilated into those of the Japanese. They have been in Japan since 10,000 BC. Out of the entire human race, they were the ones who invented the first pottery.
Who are the Ainu?
The Ainu, living mostly in Hokkaido, and the Kurile and Sakhalin Islands, are thought to be the indigenuous people of Japan, physically distinct from the Japanese, Chinese and Koeran genotype. The Ainu language, mostly obsoleted, bears no apparent relation to any other known language. From this point on, most is speculation. It is thought that the Ainu were surplanted by incursions from China and Korea, but there is no historical record going that far back.
