Research Abstract |
In this research project, we investigated the details of the prehistoric subsistence in various places in East Asia by compiling mainly the plant remains from food gathering and agriculture, and conducting fieldwork on site locations in Japan, Korea and the Russian Far East. Researchers from Japan, China, Korea and Russia were invited to a series of conferences titled "Subsistence Form in East Asia", which was held three times, to discuss on the subsistence study. The main result of the research was obtained by collecting and analyzing the botanical remains from the early agricultural sites of Korea and Japan. It was made clear that while in Korea rice farming in flooded paddy fields and upland fanning are balanced, the former is predominant in Japan. The importance of food gathering in the prehistoric subsistence activities was proved by the plant remains of acorns, walnuts and chestnuts unearthed in various locations of East Asia, showing a noticeable regional variation. The reality of hunting activity in Northeast Asia was illustrated using an ethnoarchaeological method.
