| Research Abstract |
The aim of this research work is to make clear the early bronze culture in Japan using scientific method in addition to the archaeological and historical methods.
Bronze culture in Japan started at around BC3 century. Since that time, the bronze culture developed in Japan. The expanding process can be explained with the scientific methods using lead isotope ratio and chemical composition of bronze objects.
The results is concluded roughly as follows : At the first stage of introduction of bronze in Japan was started from Korean bronze. Since then, North Chinese bronze came in whole of the lest of Yayoi period. After Kofun period, Southern Chinese bronze was brought in Japan. This trend is established in North Kyushu and Kinki area, but the other part was not so clear. As next research work, it will be worthwhile to measure the samples from not only center part but also the remote region.
