The Collection AINU Limited Edition. "Ainu" means "human." The Ainu people regard things useful to them or beyond their control as "kamuy"(gods). In daily life, they prayed to and performed various ceremonies forthe gods. The word "Ainu" refers to the opposite of these gods. First encounters between the Ainu and Europeans took place in 1643 during Dutch sailor Maerten Vries’ voyage in the discovery of the territories north of Japan. He was the first to explore Hokkaido, the Kurile islands and Sakhalin, and to draw a map of this region. The diary of his voyage provide several accounts of his meetings and gives a description of the Ainu population, their way of life and language. The Ainu are a people with a cultural and racial background which is different from that of the ethnic Japanese. Ainu who lived in Hokkaido, the Kurile Islands and Sakhalin were called "Hokkaido Ainu", "Kurile Ainu" and "Sakhalin Ainu" respectively. Most Ainu now live in Hokkaido. According to one of several theories, the Ainu are descendants of Mongoloid migrants who entered the Japanese islands. They were later displaced and assimilated, when the ethnic Japanese expanded their territory northern wards. In the Meiji period (1868-1912), the Ainu received the status of "former aboriginals". In 1997, a new law was passed which provides funds for the research and promotion of Ainu culture such as language, traditional dancing and various ceremonies.
