Occlusal tooth wear of the human skeletal remains from the Yoshimohama site was compared with those from the Zaimokuza site in order to examine local variation of temporal characteristics in tooth wear of the medieval Japanese populations. The two samples showed broad similarity in both degree and pattern of wear with some minor differences. Wear severity of these populations was, compared with the premodern Edo population from the Tokyo area, distinctly heavier on the posterior teeth while equally light on the maxillary anterior teeth.
