Answer:
16th century
Two Portuguese traders António da Mota and Francisco Zeimoto (possibly a third named António Peixoto) land on the island of Tanegashima in 1543. They are the first documented Europeans to set foot in Japan.
Although legend has it that Japan was founded in 660BC, archaeologists agree that settlement in the Japanese archpelago dates back as far as 100,000 years. The Jomon Period (8000-c. 300BC) is the earliest that has been studied.
