 | | SENDAI (Kyodo) The Yayoi people, who are believed to have migrated to Japan from other parts of Asia via the Korean Peninsula, may have moved north through the Japanese archipelago much faster than previously believed, according to Tohuku University researchers. |
 | | The Yayoi are believed to have settled in many parts of northern Kyushu and western Japan, displacing the Jomon, while they intermingled with the Jomon in the Kanto Plain. |
 | | In Hokkaido and the Tohoku region, the Jomon were believed to have been unaffected by the Yayoi, who brought rice cultivation and the use of bronze and iron to the archipelago, it said. |
