(japan) Yanagida Kunio
This book is the most important work of Yanagita Kunio in his later years. In this book, Yanagita puts forward a hypothesis: The ancestors of the Japanese started from Okinawa, rode the "Kuroshio" (Japan Warm Current) northward along the island, and spread to all parts of the Japanese archipelago. What started as an accidental drift later developed into a planned population movement. In order to find a better living space, they carried rice seeds and went north along a "sea road" composed of "islands". Finally, they arrived at the Japanese archipelago and became the first Japanese.
