Results of research study in 1996-1997 are following.
1. It is important to seize a folk entertainment not point but line. So, we can understand the meaning.
2. We can not understand a folk entertainment to apart from life, habit, language, labor, faith and sex of inhabitants.
3. "Gari" (Yaeyama region), "Kuichya" (Miyako island), "Kachyashi" (Okinawa island), "Rikuchyo" (Amami island) are folk entertainments an Ryukyu arc, southern Japan.

"Awa-Odori" (Tokushima city) propagated the whole country, so created "Tokyo Awa-Odori" at koenji, Suginami-ku, Tokyo metropolitan. And koenji is the place of dispatch now.
5. "Shika-Odori (deer dance)" of Miyagi Pref. propagated to Uwajima region, Ehime Pref.. Shike-Odori of Uwajima region brought on a change music elements, for example, tempo, expression. These results tell us that transmission and propagation re-creat new folk entertainments, and they influence from region effects.
