Abstract The peopling of mainland Japan and Okinawa has been gradually unveiled in the recent years, but previous anthropological studies dealing people in the Amami islands, located between mainland Japan and Okinawa, were less informative because of the lack of genetic data. In this study, we collected DNAs from 104 subjects in two of the Amami islands, Amami-Oshima island and Kikai island, and analyzed the D-loop region of mtDNA, four Y-STRs and four autosomal nonsynonymous SNPs to clarify the genetic structure of the Amami islanders comparing with peoples in Okinawa, mainland Japan and other regions in East Asia.

The company will also release a Tokugawa design as this year marks the 150 years since the Fall of Edo. A total of 21 variations of the "Coca-Cola" Slim Bottle Regional Design have been so far marketed as special packaging to make travel more enjoyable.

Each bottle is iconically designed with illustrations of region's symbols and signature tourist spots - the Bandai bridge, Niigata Geisha, and willow for Niigata design; the Great Buddha of Kamakura, Enoshima Island, and a yacht for Shonan design; a house with steep rafter roof for Hida-Takayama design; Osaka Castle, the Umeda Sky Building, and Takoyaki balls for Osaka design; Canal City Hakata and food stalls for Hataka design.

  • Mapping Small Islands Communicative Ecologies: a Case Study from the Amami Islands
    South Pacific Studies Vol.39, No.1, 2018 Mapping Small Islands Communicative Ecologies: a Case Study from the Amami Islands Papoutsaki Evangelia 1* and Kuwahara Sueo2 1: School of Arts and Science, University of Central Asia, Naryn Campus, 310 Lenin St. Naryn, 722918, Kyrgyz Republic 2: Center for General Education, Kagoshima University *Corresponding author E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This paper provides a conceptual framework for an islands’ communication ecology (CE) approach and an overview of the key findings of exploratory ethnographic research that aimed at mapping the CE of the Amami islands. The communicative ecology approach refers to the various forms, resources, activities, channels and flows of communication and information unique to an island or group of islands, to the island context and identity and a milieu of island agents. This research contributes towards an in-depth understanding of these Islands’ communicative environment; identifies key island mediated communicative networks and practices; explores the role of media in localized information flows unique to the islands; and attempts to explore how small island experiences can help contextualize the theoretical approach of communicative ecology.
