The regions we call northern and southern China, Inner Mongolia, Japan, and the Taiwan island have seen steady growth in the number of archaeological and other scientific investigations that are germane to the foraging to agriculture transition in both key periods, due to the rapid pace of salvage archaeology resulting from development projects and the strength of academic and museum programs that foster archaeological research [2,3,4,5,6].
