All the human male innominate bones seemingly from the Pleistocene age were morphologically investigated based on the recent advances in knowledge. New measurement methods were applied to these innominates as well as the available fossil innomimate casts and Recent Japanese innominates for comparison. For this measurement and observation new casts were made from all the fossils and restored so as to presume the whole form of the ilium. Some of the multivariate analyses were used for the objective comparison. The results indicate that the Akashi man is comparable neither to Erectus nor to Neanderthal nor to Pleistocene Sapiens but to modern Sapiens, whereas the Minatogawa man and the Mikkabi man are in many respects archaic and seem certain to be the Pleistocene Sapiens
