What are the native Japanese called and where do they mainly live today?

The original inhabitants of Japan are known as the Jomon culture. This cultural period is dated by pottery to have started sometime around the 14th century BCE. Subsistence was derived from fishing, hunting, and light agriculture and they clearly had a complex culture for the period based on the intricate artifacts found. Around 1000 BCE, an infusion of culture and technology that spread gradually west across the islands of modern Japan from mainland East Asia likely along with a population known today as the Yaoyi people. It was this new population or more likely a blend between the Jomon and Yaoyi peoples who were the ancestors of the modern Japanese population. For much of the early history of the Japanese Empire (600-1200 CE), there were references to a population known by them as the "Emishi" on the frontier in northern Honshu. Though it is unclear exactly who they were, it is safe to assume based on Japanese and non-Japanese historical records that the Emishi were a post-Jomon culture that were related to those original peoples of Japan. For example, it is clear that they did not speak Japanese and that they resisted the expansion of Imperial control into the region, fighting several wars. Hokkaido, the northernmost main island plays host to what is most likely the modern decedents of both of these groups, the Ainu. Only recently recognized as a distinct indigenous group from the Japanese ethnicity by the Japanese government, they have historically suffered harsh cultural and physical oppression ever since Japan began moving a significant presence into Aniu-populated areas. They are still frequently discriminated against by Japanese people despite the official government position so it is suspected many Ainu, most of whom are not 'pure Ainu' so to speak, do not claim their ancestry. While official numbers stand at around 24-25,000 it is believe that there are about 200,000 people with significant Ainu ancestry on Hokkaido, the Sakhalin Islands, and the Kuril Islands. Note that some of this territory is occupied by Russia.

Who were Japan's first settlers?

Old Answer: vanceNew Answer: Japan has been inhabited for quite some time. Stone Age humans arrived in Japan some where around 30,000 B.C.E., a date derived from testing of flint tools found on the islands, via a land bridge that once connected Kyushu to the Korean peninsula. It was around 10,000 B.C.E. that those people began develop an identifiable culture. Called the Jomon, they were unique in the fact that they learned to craft pottery while they were Mesolithic people, an art which is generally believed to have developed during the Neolithic age. In fact, Jomon pottery is believed to be some 2,000 years older than Mesopotamian pottery.It wasn't until around the third century B.C.E. that the Jomon were introduced to people not from their islands. The Yayoi emigrated from what is now Korea to the Japanese islands due to a large wave of migrating people out of Northern China. From here there are several theories about what happened to the Jomon people that range from a combination of the Jomon and Yayoi people to the Yayoi replacing the Jomon completely.
