Abstract

The evidences of domesticated plants such as asa (cannabis), egoma (Perilla), byotan (Lagenaria), and kuri (Castanea) have known already among the Jomon culture in Japan.<br>According to the some excellent recent result from archaeobotanical research including flotation and plant opal analysis, hie (Echinochloa utilis) has been found in East Japan and also ine (Oryza sativa) has been found in West Japan dated to between 6, 000 and 5, 000yrs BP (the Eary-Midle Jomon stages). Although a cultural context of these eviedence is still unknown, it is possible to consider that hie (Echinochloa utilis) has been domesticated in East Japan and ine (Oryza sativa) has been brought over from East Asia.<br>Definite evidence of ryokutou (Vigna radiata) has not been found yet in Japan.
