Syudies on Mineralogy and Mineral Identification in Edo-Period Through Siebold Mineral Collection

莱顿自然历史博物馆收藏的西波特矿藏是江户时代日本最重要、也是唯一一批系统的矿藏。然而，对西博尔德矿物收藏的描述从未进行过。在莱顿自然历史博物馆的合作下，我们制作了藏品目录，并拍摄了所有标本的照片。结合这些数据库工作，我们开始分析Sieboldt关于日本矿物的文件，这些文件原本属于德国的日本协会。1934年，这些文件被提供给日本研究人员，以促进西博尔德在日本的研究。这些文件的复印件存储在东洋文库。在东洋文子的帮助下，我们获得了这些文献，并翻译了《日本矿物学现状》的一部分。我们的研究成果由题为《21世纪的西堡研究》的专题展览展示，同时出版了题为《21世纪的西堡研究》的书。

Siebolt Mineral collection which is stored in the Museum of Natural History Leiden is the most important and only one systematic Japanese mineral collection in Edo-Period. However, the description of the Siebold Mineral Collection has not been carried out ever. With the cooperation of the Museum of Natural History Leiden, we made a catalogue of the collection and took the photographs of all the samples. Together with those database works, we began to analyze the Sieboldt's documents on the Japanese minerals, which belonged originally to the Japan Society in Germany. Those documents were supplied to the Japanese researchers in 1934 to promote Siebold studies in Japan. The photocopy of the documents was stored in Toyo-Bunko. We obtained the documents with courtesy of Toyo-Bunko and translated a part of "Japanese present condition of mineralogy".The results of our studies were presented by the special exhibition with the title of "21. Century of Sieboldt Studies" and at the same time the book wit the title of "21. Century of Sieboldt" was published.
