Outline of Final Research Achievements

The author have collected the historical documents and traces related to processing and quarrying.The working process could be reconstructed by analysis of historical documents and on-site archaeological investigation.The author moulaged the quarrying traces by using silicon at the Shodoshima Iwatani Quarry and conducted 3D laser measurement.As a result, two important points were revealed. One is that the technique of quarrying seems to vary among the masons. And the other point is that a number of masons quarried one stone at the same time for labor-intensive work.
