It is a surprise to see at least seven words of Japanese corresponding to Cypro-Minoan dating between 1500 and 1050 BCE. What is also a surprise is to see a number of words corresponding to Akkadian in Korean. Whereas the connections to Cypro-Minoan came through trading and merchants by way of the sea it seems, the Akkadian connection with Koreans could have originated by way of the land on the Silk road.
