Investigation of a subterranean tomb in Miyazaki, Japan
A subterranean chamber tomb in Miyazaki, Japan was investigated in an experimental programme combining remote sensing, excavation and scientific analysis of the materials recovered. Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) was used to locate the tomb, for which no visible surface markers remained. The approach to the tomb was then excavated to expose the sealed entrance to the burial chamber, through which a small hole was bored for the insertion of a mini…

Perspectives on Race and Culture in Japanese Society
This text provides, in English, up-to-date directions and findings on Japan's history, exploring Japanese nationalism and its expression not only in serious anthropological studies but in the popular media. Merging various related disciplines in a single work, it examines the latest archaeological excavations and recent Japanese interpretations, biology, genetics, and paleoanthropology in terms of their contribution to an understanding of racial …

Early Buddhist temples in Japan
Buddhism is considered to have been introduced to Japan from Paekche in AS 538. From that time on edifices of some kind probably existed for housing Buddhist images, although this has not yet been confirmed archaeologically. The construction of Asukadera, the first Buddhist temple compound, began in 588. By 624 more than twenty such temples had been built in Yamato and other provinces in the central Kinai district; all were characteristically ini…

Suurin, Koocharin, and Grannin in Guyana
T HREE RELATED TYPES OF DISCOURSE used by black speakers in Guyana are known as suurin [surin], koocharin [kocarin], and grannin [granin]. These behaviors are similar to speech practices used by blacks in the United States, and they are similar to each other in that the illocutionary point of the utterances of the main speaker is to get the auditor(s) to do something of benefit to the speaker. The illocutionary intention of suurers and koocharers…

Pottery Technology at the Chalcolithic Site of Teleilat Ghassul (Jordan)
Sherds from the Chalcolithic levels at Teleilat Ghassul show evidence of a considerable degree of sophistication in pottery technology and design. The bodies are almost certainly made from a siliceous illitic clay which contained some calcium carbonate, and was obtained locally. Some unusual, yet common, sherds are composed of highly vitrified black bodies with a surface wash of a refractory white clay. These sherds indicate the production of one…

Something borrowed
The incorporation of new-and especially borrowed-elements into existing rituals presents a problem for symbolic analysis: if the additions are to be understood as meaningful rather than random, it must be shown that the incorporated element has been coherently integrated into the already existing system of symbolic meanings. In order to understand one example of a borrowed element, the Western-style wedding cake in modern Japanese weddings, this …

Housing Values
Analysis of Domestic Ideals in contemporary Japan, as depicted in newspaper advertisements for prefabricated housing, shows a persisting attachment to values that deemphasize the individual in favor of family communication, solidarity, and harmonious three-generation co-residence. Despite the greater provision now routinely given to individual privacy within the home, this continuing ambivalence toward individualistic concerns appears to be produ…
