| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To identify the factors influencing the nonmetric cranial traits, it is necessary to conduct a survey on the populations of various periods, regions, and age groups. However, almost previous studies according to nonmetric cranial traits are based on adult samples, few researches have been conducted from the viewpoint of developmental changes. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the 314 crania dated from the Jomon to modern periods in various regions of the Japanese archipelago and examined the presence or absence of the developmental change and the lineage difference in the 23 nonmetric cranial traits. The results of comparisons among different ages from the Jomon to modern periods in immature individuals suggest not only great influence by growth, but also some differences between the native Jomon and the immigrant Yayoi lineages. These would need to be investigated further.
