| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The results revealed in this research indicate that the Harvard Tercentenary celebration (celebrating the 300th anniversary of its founding) held in 1936 (Showa 11) was the origin for Japan establishing time capsules before and after World War II. An example of the time capsules produced prior to the Harvard celebration pre-war include the ‘2,600th Anniversary Culture Pillar’ from 1904 (Showa 15). After the war, there was a ‘vase’ made at the 100th anniversary celebration of Keio University in 1958 (Showa 33). Consequently we are able to show the influence of the United States as an important factor for the birth of the modern Japanese time capsule.
