Geoarchaeological studies in Nara, Japan
In this article, the authors summarize 20 years of scholarship and two field projects on geoarchaeology in Nara, Japan, carried out by researchers from 12 different institutions in 4 countries. The research goal was to test an aerial photographic reconstruction of surface landforms in the Nara Basin with subsurface data. Project A was conducted at Asawa; it tested, through geological coring, whether a suspected swampy backmarsh in the eastern bas…
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…
