The Ainu

Any weebs know about historical japanese sources? I'd like to hear about their conflicts.

Probably Siberian tribes. Perhaps poo-in-loos who got lost somewhere.

Why would they originate from Iran?

it's just an extremely out of place european-looking race of people who obviously were separate from the east asian race(s). Simply getting lost shouldn't really explain it. A horde travelling east butting heads with every mongol tribe they find would wear them down quickly. Perhaps they came as "backwash" from north america before the land bridge was flooded or after in small boats. The fact that they inhabit only the islands of the area is interesting, Almost as though they were using the islands as a defense against the locals.

My knowledge of history here is a little poor but basically Iranian nomadic/semi-nomadic tribes (scythians among others) permeated the region from eastern poland to unknown extents east. These proto-iranians (prior to indian/arab admixture would've looked similar to the Ainu's described appearance from historical sources.

Why not just say the cockasses? Iran is barely (if even that) attached to that territory.

"The religious beliefs of the Scythians was a type of Pre-Zoroastrian Iranian religion and differed from the post-Zoroastrian Iranian thoughts.[123] Foremost in the Scythian pantheon stood Tabiti, who was later replaced by Atar, the fire-pantheon of Iranian tribes, and Agni, the fire deity of Indo-Aryans.[123] The Scythian belief was a more archaic stage than the Zoroastrian and Hindu systems. The use of cannabis to induce trance and divination by soothsayers was a characteristic of the Scythian belief system"

from wiki, basically everyone calls them Iranian because their religion seems to originate there. I'm just trying to be historically accurate. However yes they were probably Caucasian as we would know them.
