The Ainu are the original inhabitants of Hokkaido, the northernmost island of Japan.They have attracted interest from researchers because of their distinct culture, language, and physical traits.While it's widely accepted that the Ainu's ethnic identity formed around the 13th century, the exact origins of their biological identity are still debated among anthropologists.Generally, researchers believe that the Ainu share a close physical resemblance with the Jomon people, who lived in Japan thousands of years ago.Recent studies on the physical and genetic traits of the Ainu people, who are indigenous to northern Japan, have shown that they were significantly influenced by the Okhotsk culture.
