Research of Jomon Burial Forms

方法：本项目包括以下四个方面的研究：1)研究遗址的位置和环境，发现绳纹墓葬。2)墓葬遗址遗存考古研究。3)墓葬形式的分类。4)结果与结论：编制了九州、中部、四国等地区的绳纹墓葬遗址表和卡片，完成了日本西部地区绳纹墓葬遗址的年表和顺序，研究了绳纹墓葬的形式和变化过程。第一组具有墓地和生活的特征，第二组只有具有墓地的特征。而绳纹墓葬又分为两种风格。A型是独立焚烧的，B型是烧死很多身体的。我们认为后者是合作埋葬，希望今后继续在近木和中部地区进行这一研究，并阐明日本西部地区绳纹埋葬的特点。

Method; This project consists of the following four research 1) Research of the location and environment of sites, discovered Jomon burial. 2) Archaeological research of remains from the burial sites. 3) Classification of the burial forms. 4) Results.Results and Conclusion: We prepared the tables and cards of the sites found the Jomon burial in Kyushu, Chugoku, Shikoku regions and so on.A chronology and sequence of the Jomon burial sites has been completed for Western Japan, the research on burial forms and the process of change.We classified the following two groups of jomon burial. The first group has the character with burial place and living.The second group has only the character with burial place. And also Jomon burial is divided two styles. A styles is burnt independently, B styles is burnt many dead bodies.
