| Research Abstract |
This research was done under a chain of collaborations, which started in 1 990 between the Smithsonian Institution in the USA and the Bunka-cho (the Japanese Agency of cultural properties). This research aims to establish the methodology of scientific approach and examine its possibility in the ceramic research. Scientific research would be expected to resolve the problem of provenance and chronology as to the ceramic trade in Asia. Firstly, a comparative examination between neutron activation analysis and X-ray fluorescence analysis was done to the ceramics made in Hizen area. The analyzed samples were provided from the kiln sites in Hizen area and the Edo era sites in the campus ofTokyo University. The results by both analytical methods were well fitted. Same samples were also analyzed by high-energy X-ray fluorescence analysis in SPring-8, which is the biggest synchrotron radiation facility in the world. The analytical observation to the microstructure in the graze layer of Seto and Mino ceramics with electron probe micro analyzer (EPMA) revealed the heterogeneous condition of some elements. Lead isotope ratio analysis was done to the green grazed Tong dynasty ceramics in the Freer Gallery of Arts in the Smithsonian Institution. Khmer kiln sites were investigated by archaeological prospecting in Cambodia. Excavated Khmer ceramics were experimentally measured by thermal luminescence for dating. Several meetings were held to have mutual communication in the researchers. Finally, the international Symposium was held as a final stage to discuss the contributions of scientific research on ceramics.
