Thoroughly enjoyed. Thankyou very much for this lecture. Don't know why everyone in the comments is whining about the speech, this lady is delivering a lot of information at a high speed - think anyone would struggle!
Don't know why I've only just found this...maybe because of Graham Hancock. Very very intresting lecture that has me more interested in this period. Nice to get out of classical history for a minute 😊 Thank you Dr. Milford 🙏
The Ainu women lip marking are of Statius. From the age of 12, women started a long process of tattooing, marking the lips, hands and arms over a three-year period. When the process was complete, usually around age 15 or 16, she was eligible for marriage. Tattooing was a woman’s domain and only women tattooed each other.
So a society existed almost immediately after the ice age in Japan they had folk art and some weird stone shit and planted crops in one way or another. NEATO
Your definition of 'ritual' is too narrow. Bachelor parties, gender reveal parties and super bowl parties would all be modern corollaries of some of these ancient rituals.
@@gst9325 There are specifics about it when you go into it. Almost all dogu figures are broken, not just because of age, it seems that they broke them intentionally. They built them, fire them, had a great finished product and then broke it.
Every other word from this woman is "umm" or "uhh". She needs to work with a speech therapist. Also she speaks very slowly, which when paired with her insufferable overuse of stopwords makes her almost unlistenable. I had to speed the video up to 1.5% speed just to keep from killing myself. I'm not saying she's not a charming lady in real life, I'm saying she is diffucult to follow. Normal person: "Hello, my name is Jane. I'm pleased to meet you. Today I'm going to teach you about Japanese prehistory. Here are some rocks. We believe these rocks are remnants of this bygone era." This woman: "Umm.... hello, uhh........ my name is, umm........... Jane. I'm, uhh............. pleased to meet you. Umm................today I'm going to, uhh........................ teach you about, umm............................... Japanese, uhh................................... prehistory. Here are some, umm............................................ rocks. We believe these, uhh.................................................rocks, are, umm.................................................. remnants of this bygone, uhh........................................................ era. Umm..........................................................."
