Japan Explanation Writing

 Japan Explanation Writing


Have you ever dreamed of exploring all the countries in the world? Let me say it right here that I recommend you to visit Japan, Japan is one of the world's most popular and one of the most beautiful places on the earth! In this piece of writing, I’ll be talking about the first two neolithic histories of Japan.


Japan has an interesting history, culture (traditional culture) and trends. During the Jomon Period (14500 BCE to 300 BCE) when the country was inhabited by hunter-gatherers of Japan, beginning in 14000 BCE and ending in 1000 BCE in southwestern Japan and 500 CE in northeastern Japan. The name Jomon, meaning “cord-marked” or “patterned” comes from the style of pottery that was made during that time. The Jomon made stones and bone tools, and pottery beginning as early as 15,500 years ago.


The people that came to what would be known as today’s Japan (present Japan) first came at the end of the last glacial period or ice age. Following animal herds over land, bridges formed during the glacial period, after the climate had changed to warmer weather the land bridges had disappeared. The soon to be Jomon people had gotten stranded in an island. With the animal herds gone from their homelands, the Jomons had to utilized hunting and gathering skills to be able to survive.


After the Neolithic (Jomon) Period had ended, a new period had occurred known as the Yayoi Period/Yayoi Culture. The Yayoi Period, (300 BCE  to 250 CE) is a prehistoric culture/period of Japan, and subsequent to the past period, Jomon. The culture had first aroused on the southern Japanese island of Kyushu and had spread northeastward to Kanto Plain. They even had mastered bronze and iron casting! People had lived in village communities with thatched roofs, raised floor houses and more! But they also still continued the hunting and shell-gathering economy from the neolithic period.
