Changes in Settlememt-Subsistence Practice in Prehistoric Japan

Together with my collaborators, I conducted GIS analyses of the settlement patterns of Jomon archaeological sites in the northern part of the Tohoku region in Japan, and the results were used to understand changes in Jomon site distribution patterns. Preliminary results of our analyses were presented at the ARF lunch talk titled "Jomon Subsistence-Settlement Practice and Environmental Management: A View from Northern Japan" on April 9, and we are currently preparing a journal article manuscript.

ARF Equipment

ARF Equipment is available for archaeological research by ARF faculty, their students, and ARF affiliated scholars under the permission of a faculty member. The equipment is examined by the Lab Manager while being checked out and again upon return, and users are expected to report back on the performance of the equipment and any issues that arose.
