Study on the changes of hunting instruments from Pleistocene to Holocene in Far East and the Sea of Japan Rim

1.研究目的和计划本研究的目的是通过对远东亚洲地区全新世石器新组合的具体考察，研究该地区石器新组合的形成过程。为此，我们准备了两个主要观点。一是对中国、蒙古、北方西伯利亚、远东、朝鲜半岛和日本等地全新世上半期石器组合及其技术基础的研究。另一个是研究石源矿山的开发和支持技术变化和石制工具扩散的输送系统的变化。2.研究并发表结果1）东西伯利亚Enisei山谷的微型刀片工业研究2）九州北方楔形微型刀片芯的技术分析，日本3）韩国微型刀片产业研究4）韩国旧石器时代年代学研究5）韩国南部新石器时代石器研究6）北部黑曜石工具遗址列表 ...更多信息 中国、内蒙古、朝鲜半岛和俄罗斯滨海地区7）远东地区黑曜石刃研究--以俄罗斯滨海地区的宰萨诺夫卡文化为中心8）朝鲜南部新石器时代遗址黑曜石的化学分析9）日本九州地区的石源和石料供应系统研究10）九州南部绳文早期石器制造系统的再考察日本3.成果综述1）旧石器工业特别是韩国的研究，认为远东旧石器时代晚期的形成应被视为投掷狩猎工具石矛头的出现虽然在过渡时期，东南亚地区石器的主要变化是在森林扩大的基础上出现了矛和箭，植物群、工具的出现时间和组成在各个地区都有所不同，特别是由于抛光石器受原料影响强烈，具有地方特色。少

1.Purpose and Plan of researchThe purpose of this study is to research a process of forming new assemblage of stone tools in Holocene in Far East Asia through examining the materials in that area concretely. For this purpose we prepared tow major viewpoints. One is a researching the stone instrument assemblage and the technical bases of the first half of Holocene in China, Mongolia, Northern Siberia, Far East, the Korean peninsula and Japan. The other is researching the development of stone source mine and the change of delivering system that supported a technical change and diffusion of a stone instrument.2.Research and publish the Results1)Study of micro-blade industry in the Enisei Valley, Eastern Siberia2)Technical analysis of wedge shaped micro-blade cores in Northern Kyushu, Japan3)Researching of micro-blade industries in Korea4)Chronological study of Paleolithic in Korea5)Researching of Neolithic stone tools in Southern Korea6)Making a list of site with obsidian tools in Norther … More n China, Inner Mongolia, the Korean peninsula and Maritime region of Russia7)Study on obsidian blades in Far East Asia-Focusing on Zaisanovka Culture in Maritime region, Russia-8)Chemical analysis of obsidian from Neolithic Sites in Southern Korea9)Study on stone sources and supplying system of stone materials in Kyushu, Japan10)Re-examination of stone tool manufacturing system in Early Jomon, Southern Kyushu, Japan3.Summary of results1)Researching of Paleolithic industry especially of Korea, it is considered that the formation of Upper Paleolithic in Far East Asia be regarded as appearance of stone spearhead as throwing hunting instrument2)Although the major change of stone tools in transitional period in Southeastern Far East Asia is characterized by a appearance of spear and arrow based on enlargement of forest flora, the appearance time and composition of tools vary in each region, especially because polished stone tools are affected by raw material strongly, they have local characteristics.
