The Jōmon period/culture corresponds to the Neolithic period/culture in Japanese prehistory. The Sannai-Maruyama site (5.9-4.2 cal. kyr BP), the most famous, the largest, and the well-studied mid-Holocene (mid-Jōmon) archeological site inhabited by hunter-gatherers with sedentary lifestyle in northern Japan, started at early Bond event 4 and collapsed at late Bond event 3 (4.2 cal. kyr BP at the boundary between mid-Holocene, Northgrippian, and late-Holocene, Meghalayan), synchronous with the decline of the north Mesopotamian civilization and the Yangtze River civilization in China. Alkenone sea surface temperatures (SSTs), a proxy for early-midsummer SSTs, generally suggest that the early-midsummer SSTs (and atmospheric temperatures (ATs)) at 41°00′ N, 140°46′ E, about 20 km north to the Sannai-Maruyama site, located in Aomori Prefecture, peaked around 4.8-4.3 cal. kyr BP and showed minima at 5.9 and 4.1 cal. kyr BP. In spite of some discrepancy in short periods, this feature is consistent with that estimated from the assemblages of Ostracodas. δ 18 O value of benthic foraminifera of Nonionellina labradorica and Nonionella stella, alkenone production flux, and pollen assemblages could reflect annual-based temperature, which generally suggests that the climate was warmer at 6.0-4.2 cal. kyr BP, which could show the warmer environments at 6.0-5.0 cal. than expected from alkenone SST in early-midsummer. Overall, northward shift of the westerly jet, in association with a strengthened East Asian Summer Monsoon, could cause a relatively warm climate around 6.0-4.3 cal. kyr BP, when the Sannai-Maruyama site flourished. High food production density, by effective hansaibai (selective preservation or growth) in Castanea-and Aesculus-dominated forests, up to one sixth of the rice production density, could have supported high population density, resulting large community at the Sannai-Maruyama site. Cooling episode at 4.2 cal. kyr BP could have resulted in the decline of chestnut hansaibai, leading to the collapse of the site. Recent results from a compiled archeological site map suggested no large decline of the population but, instead, a dispersal to the surrounding area at 4.2 cal. kyr BP. It is consistent with ancestral population dynamics for the descendent from Jōmon people, in contrast to those from the immigrants from Far East Asia to the Japanese Archipelago with paddy rice cultivation technology after 2.9 cal. kyr BP, based on modern Japanese molecular sequences.

“…En Asie de l'Est, ce sont la Chine et le Japon qui ont fait l'objet des travaux les plus nombreux. Dans ces deux pays, la population semble avoir évolué par paliers depuis le début de l'ère chrétienne avec de fortes fluctuations dues aux changements économiques ou politiques (Biraben, 1993 ;Cartier, 2002). Ces fluctuations correspondaient aux transformations des techniques agricoles ou à des innovations en matière de navigation, aux débuts de la riziculture, au développement de l'irrigation, puis à l'invention de la monnaie et à l'essor du commerce pendant les périodes fastes ; elles étaient également dues aux catastrophes naturelles -famines et épidémies -souvent associées à des troubles politiques majeurs et à un affaiblissement du pouvoir menant à des changements dynastiques pendant les périodes de recul.…”

“…Ainsi, la population chinoise serait passée de 60 à 120 millions au cours des dix siècles qui s'écoulent entre 200 et 1200 après J.-C., puis à 200 millions au XVIII e siècle, et à 400 millions au tournant des XIX e et XX e siècles (Biraben, 2004 ;Cartier, 2002). Au Japon, la croissance aurait été relativement rapide entre les IV e et VIII e siècles de notre ère (de moins d'un million à quelque 6 millions d'habitants), puis plus lente par la suite, avant de connaître un essor vigoureux du XVI e siècle à la fin du XVII e siècle, époque à laquelle la population aurait atteint plus de 30 millions d'habitants ; suivront une nouvelle stagnation au XVIII e siècle (avec tout juste un million d'habitants gagnés sur presque un siècle et demi) et, enfin, une nouvelle croissance rapide au cours du XIX e siècle, qui aurait porté la population de ce pays à 44 millions vers 1900 (Biraben, 1993(Biraben, et 2004.…”

Testing the General Validity of the Heckscher-Ohlin Theorem

We exploit Japan's mid-nineteenth century transition from autarky to open trade to test Alan Deardorff's (1982) seminal and parsimonious autarky price formulation of the Heckscher-Ohlin theorem. Factor price data from Japan's late autarky period impose a refutable restriction on Japan's factor content of trade. Our data are constructed from many historical sources, including a major Japanese survey of agricultural techniques and a rich set of nineteenth century comparative cost studies. Evaluating Japan's factor content of trade during 1865–1876 under alternative theoretical assumptions about technology, we provide robust evidence in favor of the Heckscher-Ohlin hypothesis.
