Research Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of widening social inequality on the diversity of human physical activity and to clarify its historical development process, using musculoskeletal stress markers. Due to the outbreak of COVID-19, the research plan was slightly modified to examine the period before and after the Kofun period. There are two accomplishments of the study, The first is that the MSMs pattern differs between the samurai and the townspeople of the Edo period, indicating that the "aristocratization" of the samurai progressed as the reign of the Tokugawa; the second is that the regional characteristics of the facial traits of the northern Kyushu region of the Yayoi period, which until now had been considered homogeneous and high facial features, were examined and revealed to be increased in the variation of traits.
