    Common tickets with the Fossa Magna Museum are recommended

    Original Text

    You can also enter this archaeological museum by adding about 100 yen to the admission fee of the nearby Fossa Magna Museum. Many Jomon period pottery were displayed. The model that represented the life of that time was impressive. I think it's an interesting place for those who are interested in the ruins and the Jomon period.

    The largest level of the Yuanwen era and Beilu の collection and fall とされている "Elder ケ Original Relics" の Archaeological Museum です.

    Original Text

    It is an archaeological museum of the "Chojagahara Ruins", which is said to be the largest settlement site in Hokuriku during the Jomon period. I myself like the Jomon ruins quite a bit and have visited several Jomon ruins in eastern Japan, but of course "pit-house", "Jomon earthenware" and "Jomon earthen figures" are keywords. In the "exchange between villages", the existence of "obsidian" and "jade" is also quite large, isn't it? This "Chojagahara Ruins" is the production area of "jade", making processed products of "jade" and interacting with villages in other areas ...

    Jade and Jomon culture

    Original Text

    It is very close to the Fossa Magna Museum and has been living since the early Jomon period. In addition, trade was carried out based in this area, which is the production area of jade in Japan. Although it is a small museum, you can see the characteristic Jomon pottery excavated and the remains of residence.

    Please set it with the Fossa Magna Museum!

    I bought a combo ticket at the Fossa Magna Museum, so I stopped by. It is built on the site of a Jomon period village. The design of earthenware and earthen figures excavated was as shown in the textbook, but it is very unique and is different from the current Japanese culture and design, so I wonder if it is a forgotten technique ~. I felt It was. Please set it with the Fossa Magna Museum!

    Near the Fossa Magna Museum

    Original Text

    There is a common admission ticket with the Fossa Magna Museum, which is a few minutes walk from the museum. The state of the earthenware restoration work I saw in the video was interesting.
