They are found in a variety of generations are designated “Traditional Crafts of Kumamoto.” To receive this places and used in a variety of ways. designated, the craft must be made using traditional techniques and must have over 30 years of history. There are about 90 such designated crafts in Kumamoto, including metalwork, ceramics, woodwork, bamboo crafts, dying and weaving, paper products, and traditional toys. Japan’s Nationally Designated Crafts To be deemed a “Nationally Designated Craft,” the traditional skills or techniques used to make the craft must have over 100 years of history, and must have developed in a fixed region with more than 10 organizations or 30 individual craftsmen currently engaged in the production of the craft. Over 200 crafts in Japan have been declared Nationally Designated Crafts, including Kyo and Arita ware pottery, and Wajima-style lacquerware. In Kumamoto, Shodai pottery, Amakusa ceramics, and Higo inlay metalwork all received this distinction in March 2003. In December 2013, Yamaga lanterns were the fourth craft from Kumamoto to be designated. 1 Higo-Zogan Metalwork Metalwork in Kumamoto includes the following crafts: Higo-zogan, which originated from sword accessories; Kawashiri and Hitoyoshi-Kuma cutting tools, such as kitchen knives, farm hoes and sickles; and swords, the production of which dates back 750 years ago to the Kamakura Period.

Naturhist. Mus. Wien, Serie A 112 613-626 Wien, Juni 2010 Barremian ammonoids from Serre de Bleyton (Drôme, SE France) By Alexander LUKENEDER (With 4 figures) Manuscript submitted on September 18th 2009, the revised manuscript on December 7th 2009 Abstract Barremian ammonoids were collected at the Serre de Bleyton locality in the Department Drôme, SE France. The cephalopod fauna from the “coulées boueuses”, correlated with other macrofossil groups (belemnitoids, brachiopods, crinoids, echinoids etc.) and microfossil data (foraminifera) from the turbiditic unit, indicates Barremian age. The deposition of the allodapic limestones and marls in this interval occurred during depositionally unstable conditions which led to the forma- tion of turbiditic layers. The ammonoid fauna comprises 8 different genera, each apparently represented by a single spe- cies. The assemblage at the Serre de Bleyton section is dominated by ammonoids of the Melchior- ites-type. Ammonitina are the most frequent component (Melchiorites 52%; Holcodiscus 8%), followed by the Phylloceratina (Phyllopachyceras 3% and Hypophylloceras 2%), the Lytoceratina (Protetragonites 15%), and the Ancyloceratina (Anahamulina 10%, Karsteniceras 8% and Mac- roscaphites 2%). The ammonoid fauna consists solely of Mediterranean elements. Keywords: Cephalopoda, Ammonoidea, Barremian, Serre de Bleyton, SE France. Zusammenfassung Ammoniten aus dem Barremium wurden an der Lokalität Serre de Bleyton im Distrikt Drôme, Südost-Frankreich, aufgesammelt.

  • Kumamoto Prefecture Ryujabira Public Housing Complex
    Kumamoto prefecture Ryujabira Public Housing Complex Architectural Outline Two types of apartment buildings have been used to make effective use of an irregularly-shaped site. The site is in the form of two triangles, one large and one small. There is a stepped building type that is staggered in plan and has broad terraces. The other type is all pilotis on the first floor; this creates visual continuity between the street and the inner part of the housing project, thus integrating the project with its environment. Buildings of these two types are arranged to form a courtyard. All units are approached by way of this courtyard. Spaces flow into each other, from the stairway and corridor to the terrace, concrete-floored space (doma) and living/dining room of each unit. Being able to sense each other's presence is expected to contribute to a greater awareness of community among the occupants.
