“…From 2011 to 2013, the remains of three human skeletons of the Okhotsk culture were recovered in the area, one of which (NAT002) was affected by severe hyperostotic changes, or abnormal excessive growth of bone, suggesting SAPHO syndrome (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, osteitis) or sternoclavicular hyperostosis . This is the first case of such pathological changes among the Hamanaka-2 remains, although severe dental calculus deposits or vertebral compression fracture were found in other skeletons Ishida et al, 1994). In the current study, we present this pathological finding and consider its cause.…”

“…From northern Hokkaido, 40 skeletal individuals came from the Hamanaka and Hamanaka 2 sites on the island of Rebun (Ito and Kodama, 1963;Ishida et al, 1994aIshida et al, , 2002Maeda and Yamaura, 1994;Ishida and Matsumura, 2000) and from the Omisaki site in the city of Wakkanai Yamaguchi, 1961, 1962a, b, c;Ishida, 1988;Yamaguchi, 1995). From adjacent Sakhalin Island, the Susuya site produced eight skeletal specimens belonging to the early Okhotsk cultural phase (Kiyono, 1925).…”

This paper examines the population affinity of the Okhotsk-culture people who settled along the northeastern coastal areas of the islands of Hokkaido and Sakhalin during the 5th and 11th centuries, on the bases of dental metric and nonmetric features. Based on neighbor-joining analyses of both metric and nonmetric data, the Okhostk people, eastern Siberians, and subarctic American natives were linked more closely to each other than to other East Asian and Pacific samples. In particular, the nonmetric data analysis demonstrated the close linkage between the Okhotsk people and tribes in the Amur River Basin, suggesting that the Okhotsk people were descended from eastern Siberians who might share common ancestry with the present-day Amur people and subarctic Americans. Beside the above demonstration of Okhotsk affinities among the populations settling along the Circum Sea of the Okhotsk rim, as far as the metric dental traits are concerned, close resemblances were found between the Okhotsk, Neolithic Jomon, and Hokkaido Ainu. However, with regard to their overall dental characteristics, it is not clear whether such odontmetric similarities indicate the evidence of substantial genetic interaction between the Okhotsk and Jomon-Ainu lineages, because their nonmetric traits data indicate a quite distant relationship from each other.

“…preserved vertebral remains (Nishimoto, 2000;Matsumura et al, 2001). The Okhotsk culture sample, dated to CE 500-900, is represented by 39 adult individuals from Ohmisaki in Wakkanai city located on the northern tip of mainland Hokkaido (Ishida, 1988), and one individual from Hamanaka on Rebun Island (Maeda & Yamaura, 1994;Ishida et al, 2001). The Okhotsk Ohmisaki sample size is an estimate based on preserved cranial remains.…”

The purpose of this study is to describe and analyse the evidence for diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) in samples of human skeletal material recovered from Late Jomon (ca. 1500-300 BCE) and Okhotsk (CE 500-900) cultural period sites, northwestern Hokkaido, Japan. Two individuals from the Jomon period assemblage (n ¼ 14) exhibited lesions consistent with DISH, while the larger Okhotsk sample (n ¼ 39) was free of this condition. The aetiology of this condition is reviewed with reference to the clinical and bioarchaeological literature, in addition to behavioural and environmental considerations specific to this region and these time periods.
