The Kuriles, the Ainu were able to preserve their traditional way of life the most, without the centuries of Japanese influence. Therefore gave the habits of the extinct Kuril Ainu, the best examples of the original Ainu culture. The activities and the spiritual life as well as the genealogy are different among the Ainu by gender. The men practice of hunting and fishing, the women are gatherers and farmers. Old Ainu men were (unlike the Japanese) with flowing beards. The women have a tattoo off the “Ainu-beard”. They live in a clearly separate bisexual society to practice ancestor worship and in the case of Japan's Ainu they exercised the trade of war against the Japanese, they repressed what their culture is not peculiar to their social structure.
