Data sets analyzed were consisted of 25 representative populations from Japan, Polynesia, Micronesia, Melanesia, and East Asia. The results supported a diffusion model supposed by many anthropologists as well cluster model proposed by Brace and colleagues and Katayama's similar hypothesis. The former 2 models stress the migration of both Pacific and Jomon-Ainu groups from somewhere in Southeast Asia, while the latter emphasizes a direct lineage from the Jomonese to the Pacific group. It was also confirmed that Java may have been part of a diffusion center from where the migration to the Pacific and Pacific-rim areas had taken place.}, pages = {7--25}, title = {Biological Relationship between the Jomon-Ainu and Pacific Population Groups}, volume = {4}, year = {1993} }
