In this video we visit the topic of Japan's Holocene stone age, called the Jomon era. During the Incipient Jomon era around 15,000 years ago, when people were transitioning from Pleistocene lifeways, people began using different stone tool technology and made tanged bifacial points. I replicate one of these tanged points and talk about the archaeology of these hunter gatherers from Japan's ancient past.
