Yayoi pottery (弥生土器 Yayoi doki) is earthenware pottery produced during the Yayoi period, an Iron Age era in the history of Japan traditionally dated 300 BC to AD 300.[1] The pottery allowed for the identification of the Yayoi period and its primary features such as agriculture and social structure.[2]
