(Phys.org)A team of Japanese researchers (and one from the U.
K.) has found evidence in the remains of ancient Japanese people that suggests that people are not necessarily predisposed to living a violent existence or even to engaging in warfare. In their paper published in the Royal Society journal Biology Letters,the team describes their analysis of the remains of people that lived during the Jomon period (from 13000 – 800 BC) in what is now Japan, which showed very diminutive evidence of violent behavior or death.
