| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study conducted a reanalysis of the artifacts from several Incipient Jomon sites, and analyzed stone tools for hunting and felling. Moreover, excavations were conducted at the lower Amur River basin (Far East Russia) to examine human adaptation to paleoenvironmental changes in the terminal Pleistocene (ca 16 to 11.5 ka cal BP) in the north-eastern part of the Japanese island and adjacent area. This study expands our understanding of substantial human changes during the terminal Pleistocene to early Holocene in this area of study; moreover, it also depicts that human behavior and activities are highly correlated with the paleoenvironmental changes.
