| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project is aimed to collect the names of the body parts in the original Japanese words (the Yamato-Kotoba) before the Chinese culture has been imported to Japan. The ancient Japanese names of human body were mainly collected from several classical dictionaries compiled in the Heian, and Kamakura periods. Among collected words, we recognized that many names of the body parts containing the derived words of one syllable words such as “te” and “a”, indicating the basic names of upper limb and lower limb. We could trace development of the body names from simple words into more complex words along the long history. Moreover, we found the concept of the ancient Japanese to the derives of the body, such as hair, nail, saliva, etc., as the parts of the body with the owner’s soul. All these outcomes of this project were made public through 11 presentations in the academical meetings related to the anatomy and the medical history fields, and also published in 3 papers of journals.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は、単に古い身体語彙の収集という成果にとどまらず、それらの語彙の持つ古代日本語の音節上の特徴、畳語、擬態語が身体語彙にも表れていたこと明らかにした。また古代日本人の身体観について、身体から分離した物質について特別な認識を有していたことが研究の過程で気づいた。すなわち、毛、爪、唾液等を身体派生物としてまとめ、このような観点から用例を古典文学などで通観すると、それらの由来する個人の分身、あるいは個人の魂を含むものと捉えていたことが明らかとなった。このように本研究は解剖用語上の意義にとどまらず、日本語学、日本における文化人類学などにも関わる重要な成果をもたらしたと思われる。
