This document summarizes the origins and migrations of early peoples in Japan. It describes the Jomon culture from 10,000 BC to 300 BC and the Yayoi culture from 300 BC to 250 AD. The Jomon are considered the native islanders while the Yayoi migrated from Korea and China, introducing rice agriculture and new technologies. Morphological data suggests the Jomon had distinct physical features from the Yayoi. Ongoing research uses DNA evidence to study the connections between ancient Japanese, Koreans, Ainus, and other groups. The interactions of these early cultures help explain the development of modern Japanese society.
The Jomon period was the prehistoric period in Japan between 12,000 BC to 300 BC when the first peoples inhabited the islands. These hunter-gatherer communities started practicing a semi-sedentary lifestyle, living in small villages and farming. They made tools from sharpened rocks and wood and created beautiful pottery by hand to store and preserve food through the winter months.

Veronica is a type of monkey that lives in groups called troops in Southeast Asia. They communicate through lip smacking and embraces as greetings, and both males and females share responsibility in caring for the troop. Veronica monkeys eat a variety of foods including berries, fruits, nuts, and small animals depending on their natural habitat or food provided at zoos. They are threatened by habitat loss and some species or subspecies are endangered.
During the Paleolithic Age, people hunted and gathered food, lived nomadically without permanent homes made of materials like mammoth bones and fur, and wore clothing made of fur and animal skins. They used basic tools like sharpened sticks and stones. In contrast, during the Neolithic Age people farmed and herded animals, lived in permanent timber and mud brick homes, wore wool from domesticated sheep, and used more advanced tools such as harpoons and bows and arrows.
The Stone Age in Ireland was divided into three parts: the Early Stone Age, Middle Stone Age, and New Stone Age. During this time, the first people arrived in Ireland around 9,000 years ago and hunted animals, fished, and gathered food. They made tools from wood and stone to help with hunting and fishing. Later, more people came who practiced farming and were Ireland's first farmers, allowing people to settle in one place rather than constantly searching for food. During the New Stone Age, Ireland was covered in forests, and farmers cut down trees to make space for houses and farms, growing crops and raising animals.
The Jomon period in Japanese history lasted approximately 14,000 to 9,000 years and was divided into six eras from the earliest Incipient era to the Final era. Some of the earliest pottery ever created was made in Japan during the early Incipient era of the Jomon period and discovered in caves on the northwest coast of Kyushu. During the Jomon period, the Japanese lifestyle changed from hunter-gatherers to settling in fixed places, which provided more safety and made hunting and cooking food easier.
The oldest human fossil found in the Philippines is approximately 22,000 years old and was discovered in Tabon Cave in Palawan in 1962. The first inhabitants of the Philippines were thought to have walked from Southeast Asia during the Old Stone Age and were the Negritos people. Subsequent settlers were maritime Indonesians and Malays who introduced new cultural practices like festivals and architecture. Ancient Filipinos developed rich musical, artistic, and architectural traditions, creating wood carvings, pottery, jewelry, tattoos, and petroglyph cave paintings and engravings.
The tribe members would gather in a circle around the fire to eat meals consisting of roasted meats and vegetables. Food preparation and serving utensils were made from natural materials like wood, shells, and plant husks. Tribes preserved excess food through drying, smoking, and storing it in animal fat. Hunting techniques included deadfalls, traps, and spears tipped with bone for fishing.
This document contains information about how early Native American cultures developed housing, clothing, and food sourcing based on their environments. It provides a table with details on the Kwakiutl Native American nation, including that they lived in the Northwest Coast near the Pacific Ocean where there is heavy rainfall and dense forests. They obtained food like salmon, berries and plant life while wearing cloaks made of shredded cedar bark and lived in large rectangular cedar-plank houses. The document instructs students to locate where other Native American groups settled based on environment and to describe how they obtained resources for survival.
The Chinook Indians lived in large plank houses built of red cedar wood that could house up to 50 people. They had a varied diet that included salmon, other fish, deer, elk, berries and other foods from the forests and ocean. Clothing was made from woven cedar bark and included shirts, pants, capes and hats. Ritual ceremonies called potlatches involved dancing, singing and the chief giving gifts to show kindness. The Chinooks were skilled woodworkers who made canoes, totem poles and masks.
The excavation site in Quinhagak, Alaska has uncovered over 8,000 centuries-old wooden artifacts from the Yup'ik Eskimo culture, due to the area's permafrost preserving the items. After Warren Jones sent photos of mysterious wooden artifacts washing ashore to Professor Rick Knecht, their discussion led to cooperation between Jones' company and Knecht's university to conduct test digs. The digs have expanded over the years, uncovering tools, clothing, weapons and more in excellent condition. The site is being rapidly eroded by the shifting Arolik River, so the excavations are urgently working to uncover the items before they are lost to the landscape changes.
Aboriginal Australians traditionally celebrated festivals involving storytelling, music, and dance. They would hunt and gather food from plants, insects, and animals. Their clothing and dwellings like huts and caves were made from natural materials. Aboriginal culture originated over 40,000 years ago when the first people arrived in Australia, which is home to around 400,000 Aboriginal Australians today who make up about 2% of the population. Their beliefs center around the Dreamtime and sacred sites like Uluru which are integral parts of their spiritual practices and traditions that have been passed down for generations.
The discovery of wooden artifacts on a beach in Quinhagak, Alaska that were in good condition despite being very old led to an archaeological partnership between a local company and the University of Aberdeen in Scotland. Excavations since 2009 at the site called Nunalleq have uncovered over 8,000 artifacts dating from 1350 to 1670, prior to European contact, that have provided unprecedented insights into pre-contact Yup'ik life due to the artifacts' excellent preservation in permafrost. The dig is attempting to learn how the local population was affected by a period of lower temperatures known as the Little Ice Age by examining objects from before and after the climate change. However, the site is rapidly eroding from the
Here are my responses to the reading questions:
1) Early settlers lived in or near groves of trees for several reasons. Trees provided wood for fuel, building materials, and fences. Groves also offered shelter from wind and sun. The soil around groves tended to be richer. Groves also marked locations of springs or creeks which were important water sources.
2) Groves were isolated islands because prairie fires kept most trees confined to low, wet areas that didn't burn easily. Groves were usually located along streams or springs where soil was richer and moisture was abundant.
3) Most groves have been cleared for agriculture or development. Surviving groves look different because selective clearing removed some
Colonial life involved living in small wooden cabins that were clustered together in villages. Diet varied by season but included foods like fish, seafood, nuts, berries, fruits and vegetables as well as preserved meats. Men wore breeches, stockings and hats while women wore gowns, pockets and aprons. Children attended school where they sat at long benches learning math, grammar and reading from the New England Primer. Most colonial work involved farming grains and vegetables, with many settlers having no prior farming experience, and African slaves were forced into agricultural labor.
