To know the relationship between skeletal morphology and subsistence pattern in Nansei Islanders, pathological and morphological investigations were conducted to human skeletal remains from Okinawa prefecture.At first, some stress markers (cribra orbitalia, enamel hypoplasia, fracture, periostitis, osteoarthritis etc.) were investigated macroscopically and roentgenographically for medieval 〜 early modern skeletons from Ishigaki Island. Cribra orbitalia, cribra cranii, and enamel hypoplasia were found in most of the observed skull. In addition, frequencies of fracture, osteomyelitis, periostitis, and osteoarthritis were considerably high in their limb bones. These findings suggest that living condition at medieval 〜 early modern age were rather hard in Ishigaki Island.Then, to clarify subsistence pattern of prehistoric Okinawa Islanders, limb measurements were analyzed by using both univariate and multivariate statistical methods. Limb bones of prehistoric Okinawa Islanders were characterized by short length and developed upper limb. These results suggest that their subsistence pattern depended strongly to marine environment.

为了解南西岛民的骨骼形态与生存方式的关系，对来自冲绳县的人类骨骼遗骸进行了病理学和形态学研究，首先对南西岛民的一些应力指标（眶筛、釉质发育不全、骨折、骨膜炎、骨关节炎等）进行了分析。对石垣岛的中世纪早期现代人骨骼进行了宏观和X线研究。在所观察的大多数颅骨中发现眶筛、颅筛和釉质发育不全。此外，骨折，骨髓炎，骨膜炎，骨关节炎的频率相当高，在他们的四肢骨。这些结果表明，石垣岛在中世纪和近代早期的生活条件相当艰苦。然后，为了阐明史前冲绳居民的生存模式，使用单变量和多变量统计方法对肢体测量进行了分析。史前冲绳岛民的四肢骨具有长度短、上肢发达的特点。这些结果表明，它们的生存模式强烈依赖于海洋环境。
