There are several thousand Ainu found in Tokyo as well as other areas, but the majority of the pure blood Ainu are located in Hokkaido. None of the Ainu who are left can speak their language any more.
They originated as an ancestral Native American (Indian) tribe in Siberia, on the north bank of the Amur River. Originally they were part of the Nivkh (Gilyak) people, and they spoke something related to Algonquin. Then the Asian-race Proto-Austrics came from the east and mixed with them. Then some Australoids came from the south and mixed with them. Lastly some Caucasoids who spoke a language related to Finnish and Yukaghir came from the Far West and mixed with them. Additionally, in the farthest distant past, they may have crossed with half-Neanderthal hybrids (they are the hairiest people on earth). The mixture of red, yellow, black, and white created the Ainus. Up until recently, they looked Caucasian. The few that are left look Asian, from mixing with the Japanese. They used to speak an Austric language, which is extinct.
