Outline of Final Research Achievements

We could not research at the site of Lebanon in 2013 and 2014, because Japanese government prohibited to go abroad. Then we held symposium of accomplishments by Lebanese,Italian and Japanese researcher in 2013, and wrote formal report in 2014.

T.01-Ⅰ were constructed for Ryusis in 196/197 by Greek inscription, invocation of family were the peace of dead by wall paintings of peacock,fish,bread and wine. And we can cleared the date of human bones by C14-dating, materials of copper coin, glass beads and pigments, and good environment for wall paintings by the measurement of temperature, humidity and microbe. We transfer the technique of conservation and restoration for wall paintings, and could do international contribution from Japan to Lebanon.
