| Research Abstract |
The aim of this archaeological study is to examine research methods of modern warfare sites.
During the research period of 1997, we first selected Haebaru-cho, Okinawa, as research site and collected records of facilities and progresses of the field battles during World war II. We also carried out field survey to identify Haebaru Underground Japanese Army Hospital Caves used for the 2nd surgical hospital caves, and to make a topographical map which led us to identify planned sites of the Japanese Army Headquarters Cave in Tsukazan.
During the research period of 1998, we continued field survey in Haebaru Underground Japanese Army Hospital Caves. At the same time we carried out analyses of artifacts that had been previously excavated and collected. In order to confirm our research we visited Tsuno Island, Yamaguchi and carried field survey of the distribution as well as arrangement of the military facilities. Furthermore, we carried out measurement of inside structure of hanger/magazine, Many other information concerning military facilities were also collected.
During the research period of 1999, we carried out field survey to identify of Haebaru Underground Japanese Amy Hospital Caves used for the First surgical hospital caves. At the same time, we carried out analyses of the available records and made a report.
From the results of our preliminary archaeological field research and research methods as to the Archaeological Research on Modern Warfare as mentioned above, we understand that it will be necessary as well as required to take the following: 1) collection of various information concerning battle field during World War II, 2) field survey of battle sites, 3) testing pits and the excavation.
