Did some groups from the Lost Tribes of Israel migrate all the way to Japan? Does part of the Shinto religious tradition have roots in the Levitical laws of the Jewish scriptures? Many nations have some fascinating traditions of contact with groups from the Lost Tribes of Israel. JAPAN AND THE 10 LOST TRIBES OF ISRAEL イスラエルTV放映：日本人と「イスラエルの失われた10部族」(アビグ ドール・シャハン博士出演
The traditions about Jewish sailors going all the way to South America during the time of King Solomon are interesting as well. When I was in Quito, Ecuador during the winter of 2002 I noticed that some of the First Nations tribes of Ecuador built what sure looked to me like a Sukkot.... ... and they built it to celebrate the New Year, but on January 1, not at the time of Sukkot???? https://rotter.net/User_files/forum/gil/3ef36dd47a11b0a2.html
The Lemba tribe in Africa was DNA tested has the best claim to be one of the lost tribes. The DNA test came back 50% Semitic, 40% negroid. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/ar...Lemba are a southern,and origins of the Lemba. The Cherokee tribe here in the U.S. have claimed to be of Jewish ancestry, one of the lost tribes but DNA testing failed to back that up. I think one of the tribes making all the way to Japan is possible, but intermarriage throughout the millennia probably diluted the Y chromosomes to where at best DNA testing would be inconclusive to nonexistent. My guess is the lost tribes migrated to Europe, Asia and Africa. But DNA testing isn’t the answer to solving where they went unless like the Lemba Tribe, they basically stayed homogenous without that much inter-tribal or inter anyone else outside the tribe marriages.
Actually.... the Cherokee Tribe in the USA may be traceable back to those members of the Lost Tribes of Israel whose grandchildren met with Spanish priests who spoke Hebrew in South America ... that I quote in post number two.
