  • Okinoshima Island and Related Sites in the Munakata Region”
    “Okinoshima Island and Related Sites in the Munakata Region” Study Report II / 1 English Translation 2012 World Heritage Promotion Committee of “Okinoshima Island and Related Sites in the Munakata Region” Foreword “Okinoshima Island and Related Sites in the Munakata Region” are our heritage consisting of Okinoshima Island, where state-related rituals were held from the late 4th century to the end of the 9th century, Munakata Taisha, a Shinto shrine that developed from the rituals on Okinoshima Island, and a group of mounded tombs associated with the Munakata clan and maritime people who undertook the rituals. Worship of Okinoshima Island and rituals at Munakata Taisha have been protected and passed down by local people of the Munakata region from ancient times to the present. The group of mounded tombs also remains in a good state of conservation, giving testimony to the characteristics of the place and people at that time. While we can learn many things from this property, we have the responsibility to pass down the value of this precious property to future generations. It was in this recognition that the World Heritage Promotion Committee of “Okinoshima Island and Related Sites in the Munakata Region” was set up in January 2009 to pursue World Heritage List inscription as a means to protect and pass down the value of this property. In order to achieve World Heritage List inscription, it is necessary to define the Outstanding Universal Value of the property. A study project started in order to verify the value of this property and Study Report I was published in the fiscal year 2010.

    An Overview of the Evolution of Japanese Ceramics (For the Southeast Asian Ceramic Society) Christopher P. Wells, SEACS Lifetime Member January 27, 2021 Hokusai, Potters at Work, Imado (1805) Early Japanese Ceramics (15,000 BCE to 600 CE) Incipient/Early Jomon Period (15-13,000 BCE) • Jomon pottery dates from as early as 15,000 BCE. • There is speculation that Jomon pottery was produced by the Caucasian ancestors of the Ainu people (now on living reservations in Hokkaido) who originally inhabited most of Japan until gradually pushed North. • “Jo-mon” means “cord pattern” because most pottery from this time has designs impressed by strings. • Incipient Jomon pottery vessels have pointed bottoms and flaring lips • Some vessels are highly polished covered with iron oxide or lacquers. • Vessels were produced without potter’s wheel and firing took place at temperatures between 400-500 Centigrade in open (pit) kilns. • Ceramics of the Jomon pottery were remarkably strong and are outstanding productions of human Neolithic Age and the oldest scientific evidence of a pot for cooking is of Jomon origin. Middle Jomon Period Ceramics (3,000 to 700 BCE) • Vessels from this period were lower and wider and designed for utilitarian purposes • There are many thousands of examples and tens of thousands of fragments from this and Late Jomon periods • So-called “Fire Pots” (1500-500BCE) below are characteristic of the period appeal to modern abstract curators and artists. • Simple “dogu” figures (heads, torsos etc.) are also from this period such as the
