A study led by the University of Seville describes various unknown aspects of this clothing and its major significance based on the findings at the Tholos de Montelirio site (Seville, Spain).

An international group of scholars, including archaeologists from the School of Arts & Sciences, synthesized archaeological evidence in South Asia from 12,000 and 6,000 years ago.

A research team, including Professor Naoto Tomioka of Okayama University of Science, has uncovered new genetic evidence challenging the long-standing "dual-structure model" of Japanese ancestry. By analyzing ancient genomes from individuals spanning the Jomon, Yayoi, and Kofun periods (9000 B.P. to 1300 B.P.), the study identified three distinct genomic groups contributing to the ancestry of modern Japanese people. Their findings, published in Science Advances, suggest two waves of migration from Northeast and East Asia during the Yayoi and Kofun periods, integrating with the indigenous Jomon population. This research introduces a "triple-structure model" of Japanese ancestry and aligns with modern genomic studies. However, further analysis is needed to reinforce these conclusions.
