And till today the research has been continued to ascertain the view of the world of those days based on the study of Jomon Farming and Earthenware Iconography. At the Idojiri Archaeological Museum, we have been creating an image database of those potteries since 1996. And, at this time, we decided to publish a series of catalog for each ruins in the manner of Publishing On Demand toward the world. This catalog is the Vol.2 and contains 15 masterpieces of Jomon potteries excavated in Tounai ruins dwelling sites #9, 14, 16, 19, etc., and registered as National Important Cultural Properties. The commentaries on each potteries and excavation sites were written and compiled based on the report "Tounai, the center of prehistoric philosophy" that was published in 2011. As for the photos, we selected at least three photos for each pottery from the multi-view photos that were shot for creating the image database and laid out one photo by one page.
