“…Dental disease, including dental caries and linear enamel hypoplasia, was investigated by Oyamada et al (1996) and Hudson and Takamiya (2003). Degenerative changes in the elbow joints and lumbar vertebrae were found in early-modern samples on Ishigaki Island, in the southernmost island group of the Ryukyu Islands (Zukeran et al, 2002). As for the early-modern Kumejima samples, dental diseases were reported to have been found with a high rate of dental caries in adult females, suggesting differences in food preference may have led to this sex difference, as suggested by isotopic analysis (Irei et al, 2008).…”

“…In Japan, degenerative changes of the elbow, knee, and spine have mainly been investigated using populations from the prehistoric Jomon and Ainu populations to the present, using the prevalence of different joint disease patterns (Suzuki, 1978, Suzuki, 1998, Yamaguchi, 1984and Zukeran et al, 2002. Several of the co-authors in this paper recently investigated the degenerative changes of the spine in large skeletal populations from the Japan Islands, including the Ryukyu and Hokkaido Islands (Moromizato et al, 2007 andShimoda et al, 2012).…”

“…Hanihara, 1991;Hammer et al, 2006). On the other hand, there are only a few bioarchaeological studies of the prehistoric and historic Ryukyu Islanders (Oyamada et al, 1996;Zukeran et al, 2002).…”
