Twitter account @TheJoinery_jp is dedicated to popularizing traditional Japanese joinery techniques. This elaborate wooden craftmanship became popular in Japan in the sixth century with the introduction of Buddhism. From that time it has been used to construct simple furniture and complex buildings which are frequently found among the world’s longest surviving wooden structures. Surprisingly enough, these amazing results are achieved without nails, glue, power tools, or other materials which are essential to modern Western architecture.

its not Japanese,its Chinese... ...
Rather, the Japanese learned a lot from China.
I'm surprised it was not mentioned, but traditional joinery often proves to survive earthquakes better than newer techniques. I really love this stuff.
The same joints are used in Chinese carpentry.
Sure thing, because it is CHINESEwho invented the joint.
