Dog（イヌ）
Overview
Dogs (Canis lupus familiaris). The oldest dog remain was excavated from the shell layer at the beginning of the early Jomon period in Natsushima Kaizuka, Kanagawa Prefecture, about 10,000 years ago in the Japanese archipelago. Since then, more and more dog bones have been unearthed. Jomon dogs are generally small with a height of 38cm~45cm, such as Shiba Inu. The characteristic of the skull is that the dent from the forehead to the snout is small, and the face is thin with a straight nose.
In the Yayoi period, a slightly larger (modern Shikoku dog-class) medium-sized dog was uncovered from the Kamei site in Osaka Prefecture. Many dogs were excavated from the Kusado Sengen-cho site in Hiroshima Prefecture in the Middle Ages, but morphologically, they were mainly small-sized dogs with Jomon dogs lineage.
