| Research Abstract |
Over the past 10 years, considerable number of radiocarbon dating of charred pottery adhesions have been conducted to clear the absolute date of pottery chronology. However, little attention has been given to the plant remains, which indicate plant utilization during the prehistory. In this study, the author conducted radiocarbon dating of plant remains and charred pottery adhesions concerning to the plant utilization during the Jomon Period. To accumulate fundamental data about the transition of plant utilization in prehistory, a total of 110 samples were dated.
