説明

Employing a reliable and effective method to seek cultigens or house pest insects in Jomon, "impression method", recent paleoethnobotanical studies have been progressing in Japanese archipelago or neighboring countries in East Asia. One of the amazing discoveries by "impression method" is the weevil Sitophilus sp. impression in Jomon pottery. It is believed that these insects might be a substantial synanthropic insects and an indicator to demonstrate presence of anthropogenic storing facilities for plant foods in prehistoric villages. Although as a stored product insect infesting stored acorns or chestnuts Jomon weevils have been recognized well it is not clear why the insects were put into the paste of pottery yet. To solve the problem, especially when these insects put into the paste in the process of pottery making we examine the positions and focus on the directions (ventral, dorsal, or side) of weevil impressions from Miyanosako Site where the most impressions of Sitophilus sp. weevil were discovered in Japan and from other samples in all of Japan. As a result maize weevil might not been impressed on the surface of potsherds when the insects were crawling on them but been put into the paste of pottery when the paste was preparing except a few examples.
