>The Kofun period is named after the large earthen tombs built for members of the new ruling class at a time of the importation of technology and culture from China by way of the Korean peninsula.

>Insularity was a byproduct of Japan's island geography, surrounded by oceans that made migration in ancient times difficult. The first people to reach Japan arrived more than 30,000 years ago at a time of lower sea levels when there may have been a land bridge to the Asian mainland.

>The researchers also said the genetics of Japan's population have remained largely stable since the Kofun period, which lasted from around 300-700 AD.
