Archaeological Stamps: Stone Plate and Grinding Stone
A large stone plate and grinding stone from the Jomon period are on display at the Chiba City Museum of Local History, but I also enjoyed finding three similar artifact stamps in my own archaeological stamp collection. All three stamps are from African countries.
Comparison of Shell Layer Classifications between Sections 6 and 7
For the shell layer on the northern slope of the Ariyoshikita Shell Mound, the proposed shell layer classification for Section 7 was projected onto Section 6. The shell layer on the slope has been largely replaced by older shell layers compared to the downstream section.
3D Models of Observation Records of Five Deer Antler Ceremonial Guards (Arami Shell Mound, Narita City)
I created 3D models of the observation records of five deer antler ceremonial guards on display at the Chiba City Archaeological Research Center's special exhibition, "The Mysterious Late Jomon Period."
The carved patterns are creative designs that are inspiring even to modern audiences.
Comparison of Shell Layer Classifications between Sections 8 and 7
For the shell layer on the northern slope of the Ariyoshikita Shell Mound, the proposed shell layer classification from Section 8 was projected onto Section 7. Erosion has created a topography consisting of flat and steep slopes in the collapsed layers, and mixed shell sand layers have been deposited as slope-like stratification, filling in the topography.
3D Model of Observation Records of Intentionally Destroyed Pottery (Noman kamikokaizuka Shell Mound, Ichihara City)
I created a 3D model of the observation records of intentionally destroyed pottery, which is on display at the Chiba City Archaeological Research Center's special exhibition "The Mysterious Late Jomon Period."
I imagine that the intentional destruction of the pottery eliminated its practical use in this world, allowing it to be used forever in the afterlife.
Comparison of shell layer classifications between Section 9 and Section 8
For the shell layer on the northern slope of the Ariyoshikita Shell Mound, the proposed shell layer classification from Section 9 was projected onto Section 8. In this area, near the main gully channel, slope shell layers predominate over sedimentary shell layers derived from the main gully channel.
3D Models of Observation Records of Nine Clay Figurines and Other Artifacts
I created 3D models of observation records of nine clay figurines and other artifacts currently on display at the Chiba City Archaeological Research Center's special exhibition, "The Mysterious Late Jomon Period."
Upon closer inspection of the earrings in the 3D models, I was deeply impressed by their intricate and elaborate designs, comparable in quality to modern earrings.
3D Observation Record Model of Animal-shaped Earthenware (Kikuma Tenaga Site, Ichihara City)
I created a 3D model of the observation records of the animal-shaped earthenware artifacts on display at the Chiba City Archaeological Research Center's special exhibition "The Mysterious Late Jomon Period." What kind of animal is this model?
Observation Notes: Observation Notes on Shell Layer Divisions at Cross Sections 9-13
I have made notes on the issues I noticed and the workarounds I took while observing the shell layer divisions at Cross Sections 9-13. I'm stuck in a "poorly planned, poorly planned rest" situation, and I'm wasting time.
A comprehensive collection of shell layer divisions from cross sections 9 to 13
I am currently working on a comparison of shell layer divisions in cross sections of the shell layer on the northern slope of the Ariyoshikita Shell Mound. Using the shell layer division of cross section 11 as a reference, I compared previous and subsequent cross sections and observed the results side by side. I found that the uppermost shell layer (the newest shell layer) develops more toward the edge of the shell layer.
