| 内容記述 | Many islands in the world were colonized by Homo sapiens (modern human) after 10,000 years ago. Considering the high degree of adaptability of H. sapiens, who were all hunter-gatherers prior to 10,000 years ago, to various environments, one might wonder why the colonization of islands was recent phenomenon in human history. Archaeologists and anthropologists have examined human colonization processes to island environments and come up with several reasons: the low level of water crossing technology, difficulties in finding adequate amount of food in newly arrived islands, also difficulties of small human population group avoiding natural disasters and diseases and so on. Among these the most challenging thing for hunter-gatherers was how to obtain enough food resources in resource poor island environments. Hunter-gatherers move quite often, changing their camps from one place to another. Most archaeologists and anthropologists argue that many islands in the world are/were not large enough for mobile hunter-gatherers successfully colonize them. Therefore, most of them were colonized after agriculture was invented at around 10,000 years ago. Rarely, exceptions exist. That is small number of islands were colonized by hunter-gatherers. These islands are characterized by as follows: 1) large islands, 2) islands closely located from a continent or large island, 3) large sea mammals more or less constantly available, 4) hunter-gatherers translocated edible plants and animals from their mother lands to islands and 5) if combination of 1) to 4) is possible. None of these are/were applicable to the islands in the Amami and Okinawa archipelagos. Therefore, some archaeologists and anthropologists proposed the Shellmidden period (ca. 6,500 BP to 1,000 BP) agriculture hypotheses. Archaeologists and anthropologists have worked intensively for the last twenty years or so especially focusing on faunal and plant remains. The former contained only wild animals except the dog. The latter too mainly consisted of wild species except the bottle gourd. The results of the analyses strongly indicate that the hunter-gatherers successfully adapted the islands. The data is an extremely unique and important case in human history. |
