Around 12,000 BCE in northeastern Japan, sedentary foragers known as the Jōmon were "contemporaneous with and likely earlier than the Natufian period in the Fertile Crescent." They "were known for being a largely egalitarian society that managed to coexist with the natural world around them, something unheard of for much of this world’s history."[1] James C. Scott, Against the Grain: A Deep History of the Earliest States' (New Haven: Yale University Press, 2017).
