		Our findings demonstrated that juvenile ancient bears of Rebun Island were originated from southen Hokkaido, which was an outside area of the Okhotsk Culture and belonged to the Epi-Jomon Culture with a close relation to a northern part of the Tohoku district.
		The Okhotsk Culture developed around southern coastal regions of the Okhotsk sea (southern Sakhalin, Rebun and Rishiri Islands, northern and eastern Hokkaido, and southern Kuril Islands) during 6-11 centuries, A.D. The ancient people of those days are considered to have involved brown bears for traditional ceremonies and rituals.
		Compared with sequence data of modern brown bears of the Hokkaido main land, ancient mtDNAs of Rebun Island were phylogenetically classified into either of two lineages of modern mtDNA: the north-central Hokkaido lineage and southern Hokkaido llineage.
