| 研究実績の概要 |
The transition from Pre-Pottery Neolithic B and Pottery Neolithic periods underwent remarkable changes in funerary practices. Skull removal and decoration practices were widely prevalent in the Pre-Pottery Neolithic. It is suggested that these ritual practices reflect public rituals and were considered part of the social system. However, in the succeeding Pottery Neolithic period, these funeral practices sharply decreased and limited evidence was uncovered from Central/ southeastern Anatolia and Northern Levant. Investigations at PN sites indicate that the decline in these practices is attributed to changes in social structure in society which is based on a household system. A small number of households have practiced this custom on an individual basis which leads to its decline.

理由
There were minor changes in the plan for FY2022 related to oversea travel to Toronto Univ. in Canada to collect required data. However, I tried not to delay the progress of the research. Instead, I spent sufficient time in excavation at Jarmo Neolithic site in Iraqi-Kurdistan. Excavations reveal skeletal remains of at least 4 children and necessary studies were conducted in the field. The result of the research was presented at an international symposium at ASOR Annual Meeting 2022 in USA, and in Japan during The 30th Annual Meeting of Excavations in West Asia. Further, two academic papers have been published in English. In addition, a manuscript was submitted to the proceedings of the 30th annual meeting of excavations in West Asia.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
The research plan will be carried out as scheduled. There is a plan to participate in the following international and domestic conferences: ① 13th International Congress on the Archaeology of the Ancient Near East at Copenhagen University ② ASOR Annual Meeting 2023 in USA ③ 31th Annual Meeting of Excavations in West Asia. Also, there is a plan to participate in the excavation at Jarmo Neolithic site in Iraqi-Kurdistan at the beginning of Summer. Excavation will be conducted and I will continue studies on burials excavated last season.

| 次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
Due to the short time at the end of FY2021, a balance remained in the budget. This balance will be used to buy the necessary stationery related to the research during the next fiscal year.
