Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to elucidate the Upper Palaeolithic technological adaptations, this study investigated the functional variability of stone tools on the eastern Japanese Archipelago, and examined what caused the differences of stone tool uses. The analyses suggested that the Upper Palaeolithic foragers may have changed their stone tool usages depending on the type of available tool materials, the variation in risk of resource-failure, and/or the difference of residential mobility.
