1.EXCAVATION SURVEY IN LIMESTONE CAVES AND FIELD SURVEY IN LIMESTONE AREAExcavation survey has been carried out in the Tarumi NT Cave and Jizougafuchi Cave. Many mammalian fossils have been discovered and the mode of occurences have been described in detail in the Tarumi NT Cave.The mammalian fossils are composed of small-to medium-size mammals.These fossil assemblage appears to be of Middle Pleistocene in age. The mode of occurences of fossils and deposits (containing fossils) show that most mammals fell down into the vertical cave and accumulated under the cave. In spite of the excavation survey has not been completed, the results of the survey indicate that the Tarumi NT Cave is one of the oldest limestone cave with animal remains and significant for studying the taphonomy of fossils.the Jizougafuchi Cave have yielded small amount of potteries, stone tools and animal remains. There is a hope of finding human remains in future excavation. Reconnaissance fild survey has been done in t … More he Atetsu Limestone Plateau, Which is distributed mainly in Niimi City. About 40 maps of horizontal caves have been made, and fragments of animal and human remains were collected at 2 sites.2.SUBMARINE SURVEY ON MAMMALIAN FOSSIL BEDS IN THE SETO INLAND SEASubmarine survey on mammalian fossils beds in the Seto Inland Sea using the remotely operated TV vehicle (RTV100) was carried out in 4 offshores in Kagawa Prefecture. The study areas are west of Kosei Island of Sakaide City, south of Okado-hana of Utinomi Town, west of Misaki of Takuma Town and north of Nou-misaki of Sakaide City. TV vehicle transmits clear pictures of submarine deposite to the monitor on board. We can identify lithlogy of sediments by this picture. It was difficult to identify using the usual sonic prospecting method. The TV vehicle is convinient in submarine survey, because it can travel much longer and deeper than human diver. Because the survey term was small and the survey areas were restricted by public sea route and fishing ground, we not find mammalian fossil by TV vehicle. But some beds inferering to yield mammalian fossils were observed. Furthermore, we created a new method of mapping submarine geology using TV vehicle. Elephant and deer fossils were collected from the study areas by fishing nets. This indicates that the study areas are important sites for investigating mammalian fossils. Less

1.石灰岩岩洞的挖掘调查和石灰岩地区的野外调查对大水NT洞和吉州口洞进行了挖掘调查。许多哺乳动物的化石已经被发现，并且在滴水NT洞穴中出现的模式已经被详细描述。哺乳动物化石由中小型哺乳动物组成。这些化石组合在年代上属于中更新世。化石和沉积物（含化石）的赋存模式表明，大多数哺乳动物落入垂直洞穴并在洞穴下堆积。尽管挖掘调查尚未完成，但调查结果表明，该洞是最古老的有动物遗骸的石灰岩洞穴之一，对研究化石分类学具有重要意义。jizogafuchi洞穴出土了少量的陶器、石器和动物遗骸。在今后的挖掘中有希望找到人类遗骸。对主要分布在尼米市的Atetsu石灰岩高原进行了野外勘察。绘制了大约40幅水平洞穴地图，并在2个地点收集了动物和人类遗骸的碎片。利用遥控电视车（RTV100）在香川县的4个近海对濑户内海的哺乳动物化石床进行了海底调查。研究区域为堺市高成岛以西、宇见镇冈道花以南、拓间镇Misaki以西和堺市noo Misaki以北。电视车向船上的监视器传送潜艇沉积物的清晰图像。我们可以通过这张图辨别沉积物的岩性。用常规声波勘探方法难以识别。电视探测车在水下探测中比人类探测车行驶的距离和深度都要大得多。由于调查周期短，调查区域受公共航道和渔场的限制，我们没有利用电视车找到哺乳动物化石。但也观察到一些推断出哺乳动物化石的床。在此基础上，提出了一种利用电视车进行海底地质制图的新方法。大象和鹿的化石是用渔网在研究区域收集到的。这表明该研究区是研究哺乳动物化石的重要地点。少
