| Research Abstract |
The primary aim of this study was basic data collection of the kiln sites in our study area. We excavated two Late-8th-Century kilns and one 10th-Century kiln in the Oku kiln sites. At the two 8th-Century sites we unearthed valuable materials with Chinese characters such as 'great' or 'happiness' suggesting their association with the government office of Bizen area at the time. The 10th-Century site was inferred to be directly linked to the Bizen-yaki kilns.
In the secondary aim of this study to re-evaluate these kiln sites scientifically, we applied X-ray fluorescent analysis to ceramic ware fragments. In the analysis, we obtained results suggesting the produced ceramic wares were not only distributed within the Okayama Prefecture area but also transported to the Kagawa Prefecture area. Also attempted magnetic surveys in the study gave results indicating good correspondence to the historic change of the magnetic field in the past.
