| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, specialists in folklore studies, archaeology, document history, and design engineering collected, organized, and analyzed basic materials related to winnowing baskets, which were indispensable tools for threshing grain, and specifically clarified historical changes and regional diversity in their materials, production techniques, and forms, from excavated winnowing baskets of the early Yayoi period to those of the modern era.
Furthermore, the background of regional diversity of winnowing basket was analyzed by comparing each basket's uses, functions, materials, and production techniques, as well as their relationship with the local communities where they were used. As a result, it was shown that each form of winnowing baskets was defined by the interconnection of their material, technique, and their main use etc., and that typification of the form was possible in certain regions.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
箕は、その基本構造における明確な地域差と、地域における歴史の長さ、東アジア一帯という使用範囲の広さを根拠に、日本列島の文化系譜を読み解くための材料として学術的に注目されてきた。本研究では箕の素材・技法・形態について、時代・地域を越えた一次資料を広く蓄積・公開し、その変遷と多様性について具体像を提示しており、これらは今後、日本列島における文化系譜を再考する際の物質的根拠として大きな意義を持つものと考える。さらに、ひとつの民具を通じて様々な分野の専門家が共同で研究を実施したことは、今後の民具研究のひとつの在り方を示すモデルケースになるものと自負するものである。
