The beginning of archery in Japan is, as elsewhere, pre-historical. The first images picturing the distinct Japanese asymmetrical longbow are from the Yayoi period (ca. 500 BC–300 AD). The first written document describing Japanese archery is the Chinese chronicle ''Weishu'' (dated around 297 AD), which tells how in the Japanese isles people use "a wooden bow that is short from the bottom and long from the top."〔Yamada Shōji, (The Myth of Zen in the Art of Archery ),'' Japanese Journal of Religious Studies'' 2001 28/1–2〕
