    IS S N -1341-6936 NIES Annual Report 2008 AE - 14 - 2008 National Ins titute for E nvironmental S tudies http://www.nies.go.jp/ NIES Annual Report 2008 AE - 14 - 2008 National Ins titute for E nvironmental S tudies http://www.nies.go.jp/ Foreword This annual report is an official record of research ac- tivities at the National Institute for Environmental Stud- ies (NIES) for fiscal year 2007 (April 2007 to March 2008), the second year of our second 5-year research plan as an incorporated administrative agency. This year, all research units, most of which were founded or reorganized in April 2006, concentrated on their research plans. About half of NIES researchers have been involved in four priority programs: climate change, sustainable material cycles, environmental risk, and the Asian environment. The other half have per- formed fundamental and pioneering studies in the six research divisions – Social and Environmental Systems, Environmental Chemistry, Environmental Health Sci- ences, Atmospheric Environment, Water and Soil Envi- ronment, and Environmental Biology – as well as in the Laboratory of Intellectual Fundamentals for Environ- mental Studies. Through collaboration with researchers both nationally and internationally, we have produced a number of outcomes for a wide range of environmental issues at the local, national, regional, and global levels. In particular, our long-term contribution to the work of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change was rewarded with its winning of the Nobel Peace Prize for 2007. Our research activities and our outreach ac- tivities, such as the dissemination of research findings and other environmental information through press releases, our homepage, public symposia, and open campus days, received an A grade rating from the Examination Committee of the Ministry of the Environment.

  • The Moon Bear As a Symbol of Yama Its Significance in the Folklore of Upland Hunting in Japan
    Catherine Knight Independent Scholar The Moon Bear as a Symbol of Yama Its Significance in the Folklore of Upland Hunting in Japan The Asiatic black bear, or “moon bear,” has inhabited Japan since pre- historic times, and is the largest animal to have roamed Honshū, Shikoku, and Kyūshū since mega-fauna became extinct on the Japanese archipelago after the last glacial period. Even so, it features only rarely in the folklore, literature, and arts of Japan’s mainstream culture. Its relative invisibility in the dominant lowland agrarian-based culture of Japan contrasts markedly with its cultural significance in many upland regions where subsistence lifestyles based on hunting, gathering, and beliefs centered on the mountain deity (yama no kami) have persisted until recently. This article explores the significance of the bear in the upland regions of Japan, particularly as it is manifested in the folklore of communities centered on hunting, such as those of the matagi, and attempts to explain why the bear, and folklore focused on the bear, is largely ignored in mainstream Japanese culture. keywords: Tsukinowaguma—moon bear—matagi hunters—yama no kami—upland communities—folklore Asian Ethnology Volume 67, Number 1 • 2008, 79–101 © Nanzan Institute for Religion and Culture nimals are common motifs in Japanese folklore and folk religion. Of the Amammals, there is a wealth of folklore concerning the fox, raccoon dog (tanuki), and wolf, for example. The fox is regarded as sacred, and is inextricably associated with inari, originally one of the deities of cereals and a central deity in Japanese folk religion. It has therefore become closely connected with rice agri- culture and thus is an animal symbol central to Japan’s agrarian culture.
