Shell mounds are located in Miyanosho (formerly Todoroki Village), Uto City, Kumamoto Prefecture. They are large shell mounds that were formed intermittently from the early to late Jomon period in slightly different areas. After Suzuki Buntaro excavated ancient human bones in 1917 (Taisho 6), Hamada Kosaku and Kiyono Kenji excavated 18 human bones in 1914, and Hasebe Kotondo excavated about 20 human bones in 1920. These human bones became the basic material for the physical anthropological criticism of the Jomon culture Ainu theory by Torii Ryuzo and Koganei Yoshikiyo. In 1966 (Showa 41), a large-scale excavation survey was carried out by Keio University, and the bones of a woman from the end of the early Jomon period wearing a necklace made of cone shells and amahobuna were excavated.

熊本県宇土(うと)市宮庄(みやのしょう)(旧轟村)にある貝塚。縄文文化早期から晩期まで若干地域を異にし断続して形成された大貝塚。1917年(大正6)鈴木文太郎が古人骨を発掘して以後、19年には浜田耕作、清野謙次(きよのけんじ)が発掘調査し18体の人骨を、続いて20年には長谷部言人(はせべことんど)が約20体の人骨を発掘した。これらの人骨は、鳥居龍蔵(りゅうぞう)、小金井良精(こがねいよしきよ)らの縄文文化人アイヌ説に対する形質人類学的な批判が出されるための基礎的資料となった。66年(昭和41)慶応義塾大学が中心となり大規模な発掘調査を実施し、イモガイとアマオブネガイ製の首飾りをつけた縄文早期末の女性人骨などを発掘した。 [江坂輝彌] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
