Dive into one of the most fascinating and rarely discussed anthropological enigmas: the striking light-skinned, wavy-haired, and sometimes blue-eyed or green-eyed individuals found among the indigenous Ainu of northern Japan.
In this video, we explore dozens of rare historical and modern photographs of Ainu men and women who display unmistakably Caucasoid (Europoid) facial features—deep-set eyes, prominent noses, thick beards, and fair complexions—that stand in sharp contrast to the typical East Asian phenotype.
What you’ll see:
* Archival photos of Europoid featured Ainus from the late 19th and early 20th centuries
* Modern photos of full-blooded Ainu with European-like bone structure
