Yayoi?

Well most of the Yayoi were Tungids, But at the time of the Yayoi, two Mongolid waves met each other in Southern Japan, one (Tungid, with minor Sinid) came from Korea, the other (Palaemongolid) from the islands South. In the Yayoi culture and later both mixed, and Tungids brought most of the culture and language, but Palaemongolids brought influences as well. in Japan, and Korea all three major Mongolid types met each other, and mixed: Tungid in the North, Sinid in the West, Palaemongolid in the South, and indigenous Ainuid.

Paleo-mongoloid + middle sinid perhaps?
