| Research Abstract |
We did a research on and its analysis of the production and usage of bamboo baskets in mountains, highland, and plateau. We researched in five bamboo basket makers in Chichibu and Tama, and collected 370 pieces of data from 10 museums and archives. The results are as follows:
1, The bamboo baskets of each region have much to do with its natural features (mountains or plateau), and with the forms of consequent subsistence (cereals farming).
2, The origin of the bamboo basket of various kinds and shapes is a tool for making compost using the fallen leaves from the fields.
3, he great variety of the bamboo basket resulted from that of the side jobs such as silkworm breeding, vegetable growing and tea manufacturing developed since Meiji era.
4, There were professional and amateur makers. For amateur makers, basket making was a side job of agriculture. Data from Taisho era show that there were more amateur makers than professionals.
5, Professional and amateur makers developed different craftsmanship.
