| Research Abstract |
In the present research, we tried to elucidate the intra-regional differences of the prehistoric southwestern islanders from the viewpoints of osteo-morphology, genetic, chronology, subsistence, and archaeology. As the well-preserved prehistoric skeletal remains in the Sakishima Islands were not found by now, we performed the research focusing in the Okinawa Islands. Our database of prehistoric skeletal remains and sites will contribute to future investigations. In addition, new Pleistcene skeletal remains found at the Shiraho-Saonetabaru Cave site in Ishigaki Island are expected to contribute investigations of population history of the Japanese.
