China

Oh and one more thing.
You exclude China from that group of Yayoi but the truth is that many elements from Manchuria migrated into and with Korean ones when the Yayoi farmers moved into Japan. Again, traditional pre-war Japanese archaeology had always tried to deny this so you don't see it much in history books. It is not cool to mention China over there when talking about the Yayoi.

It is funny what borders do because even within China, the Manchurians stand slightly apart from the rest of the Chinese (whose origins lie further south) so they shouldn't have caused any problems to racist thinking!
