本文回顾了最近的考古植物学证据的水稻和粟农业的起源在史前日本,重点是农业杂草组合从早期水稻栽培网站。在这项研究中,我们表明,最可靠的传播时间的水稻和谷子种植是末绳文时代结束,对应的初始和早期弥生时代的北方九州。水稻和小米可能是同时从中国经由朝鲜传入的。早期的水稻种植很可能不是在刀耕火种的田地里,而是在原始的稻田里,没有明确的稻田脊或隔室,建造在靠近森林的人工管理的开放湿地上。小米可能种植在靠近稻田的高地农田上。在此期间,绳文时代以浆果和坚果为生活基础的使用继续进行,水稻和小米农业逐渐扩展到弥生时代中期至晚期。
This paper reviews recent archaeobotanical evidence of the beginnings of rice and millet agriculture in prehistoric Japan, focusing on agricultural weed assemblages from early rice cultivation sites. In this study we show that the most reliable dispersal timing of rice and millet cultivation was the end of the Final Jomon period, corresponding to the Initial and Early Yayoi period of northern Kyushu. Rice and millet were introduced from China via Korea probably at the same time, as a pair. Early rice cultivation was likely practiced, not in slash-and-burn fields but in primitive paddy fields, which did not possess clearly defined paddy ridges or compartments, and were constructed in human-managed open wetlands near forests. Millets were probably cultivated on upland farmlands close to rice paddy fields. The use of berries and nuts which was the subsistence base of Jomon period continued during this time, and rice and millet agriculture gradually spread up until the Middle to Late Yayoi period.
