项目摘要

1) Study of Japanese macaque bones from archaeological sitesAnimal bone remains from archaeological sites, mainly of the Jomon period, in various locations in Japan were reviewed. Bones of Japan macaques have been found from 217 sites. These sites were plotted on maps according to the dates of the sites. The result of the survey v be a useful resource for future studies on the distribution of the Japanese macaques. As for the sites of the Nara Period and later, archaeological data was supplemented by information from historical texts. Morphological study of the teeth of these archaeologi macaque remains was also carried out. The result suggests that there was little morphological change in the Japanese macaques after Pleistocene. The study also suggests that the geographical variation among the modern Japanese macaque populations is small. Japan macaque bones from Jomon sites in Tanegashima Island was included in the study. Since attempts to extract DNA from archaeologi bones has begun … More only recently, we should still wait for enough data to be accumulated. It is an important step forward that we co establish the methods for DNA extraction from archaeological specimens. Study of the origin of Pleistocene Japanese macaque rema showed that they migrated to Japan quite long time ago.2) Study of modern Japanese macaquesMetrical analysis of the morphological variation of the skulls was carried out. In addition, the list of food plants used by Japanese macaques was completed. The changes in the distribution of the Japanese macaques were investigated based on the analysis of D-loop of DNA. This was the most successful project, which illustrated the special (peculiar?) nature of the distribution of the spec during the post-glacial period. Several different DNA haplotypes were found in modern Japanese macaque populations. The study revea that the population in the eastern Japan is clearly separated from that in the western Japan.In the course of this project, we could greatly increase the number of modern macaque samples, as well as locating the anci macaque specimens. These are the contributions that will be very useful for the future study of the Japanese macaques. Less

1）回顾了日本各个地方的考古骨骼的日本猕猴从考古骨骼残留的研究。从217个地点发现了日本猕猴的骨头。根据该站点的日期将这些位点绘制在地图上。调查V的结果是对日本猕猴分布的未来研究的有用资源。至于奈良时期的地点，后来，考古数据是由历史文本中的信息补充的。还对这些考古学猕猴遗骸的牙齿的形态学研究也进行了。结果表明，更新世后日本猕猴几乎没有形态学变化。该研究还表明，现代日本猕猴种群之间的地理差异很小。这项研究包括来自Tanegashima岛Jomon遗址的日本猕猴。由于尝试从考古学骨骼提取DNA的尝试已经开始……直到最近，我们仍然应该等待足够的数据积累。向前迈出的重要一步是，我们共同建立了从考古规范中提取DNA的方法。对更新世日本猕猴的起源的研究表明，它们很久以前就迁移到日本。2）对现代日本猕猴对头骨形态变化的研究进行了研究。此外，日本猕猴使用的食品厂清单完成了。根据DNA的D环分析，研究了日本猕猴的分布的变化。这是最成功的项目，它说明了冰川后时期规格分布的特殊（特殊？）性质。在现代日本猕猴种群中发现了几种不同的DNA单倍型。这项研究反驳了日本东部的人口与西部西部的人口明显分开。在该项目的过程中，我们可以大大增加现代猕猴样品的数量，并找到ANCI猕猴的标本。这些贡献对于日本猕猴的未来研究将非常有用。较少的
