| Research Abstract |
Hunting and gathering was main subsistence in the Jomon period. Animals are used as an important food resource and also tool, and had a close relationship with human. If we can identify the origin of the resources, we can get to know the human migration and living area or trade route. I tried to identify the origin of animal remains by the chemical analysis techniques. In the Kanto, Tokai, Tyugoku and Kyusyu region, the results of their analysis of the sites in each region, I pointed out that hunting or gathering area is different in each site and was able to estimate the range.
