Mark James Hudson (born 10 July 1963, in Roade) is a British archaeologist interested in multicultural Japan.[1] His initial areas of specialization were the Jōmon period and the Yayoi period.[2] His later research has focused on areas of Japan outside state control, primarily islands and mountains. He excavated the Nagabaka site on Miyako Island.

He was awarded his M.Phil in East Asian Archaeology at the University of Cambridge in 1988. He earned his Ph.D. at the Australian National University in 1996. His doctoral dissertation began with an investigation of the Jōmon-Yayoi transition in the Kanto region.[2] but extended to a broader consideration of ethnogenesis in ancient Japan.
