Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, our team analyzed the stones of stone axes which were widely distributed during the Yayoi period geoscientifically. As a result, it was revealed that stone axes were produced and widely distributed using basalts produced at Imayama site (Fukuoka city, Fukuoka prefecture) which have been pointed out in the past. It was confirmed that the stones of stone axes excavated at the Yoshinogari site (Yoshinogari town, Saga prefecture) are basalts produced at the Imayama. However, the stone axe excavated from the Dounomae site (Karatsu city, Saga prefecture) was not the basalt that was produced from Imayama and its surroundings, but basalt from other production areas was used. From these facts, basalt rocks other than Imayama were used for the stone axes of the Yayoi period, and the actual condition of distribution was also clarified.
