Random information on the term “Japanese religion”:
The Ainu are the indigenous people of the lands surrounding the Sea of Okhotsk, including Hokkaido Island, Northeast Honshu Island, Sakhalin Island, the Kuril Islands, the Kamchatka Peninsula and Khabarovsk Krai, before the arrival of the Yamato Japanese and Russians. These regions are referred to as Ezo (蝦夷) in historical Japanese texts.
Official estimates place the total Ainu population of Japan at 25,000. Unofficial estimates place the total population at 200,000 or higher, as the near-total assimilation of the Ainu into Japanese society has resulted in many individuals of Ainu descent having no knowledge of their ancestry. As of 2000, the number of “pure” Ainu was estimated at about 300 people.
In 1966, there were about 300 native Ainu speakers; in 2008, however, there were about 100.
This people’s most widely known ethnonym, “Ainu” (Ainu: アィヌ; Japanese: アイヌ; Russian: Айны) means “human” in the Ainu language, particularly as opposed to kamui, divine beings. Ainu also identify themselves as “Utari” (“comrade” or “people”). Official documents use both names.
