Study of political History of chiefs in the Kofun Period seen in Haniwa-industry and technology transfer in the History of Japanese manual industry in the late Prehistoric and early Historic Age.

古坟时期前半期，具有高技术要求的俑俑俑从近畿地区迅速传播到其他地区。作为这一事实的背景，我们可以假设这些地区的埴形雕像是由来自近畿地区的埴形工匠制作的。这些古坟集中建造于古坟早期末期（约4世纪末）、古坟中期（约5世纪中叶）和古坟中期（约5世纪末）。首先，我们与福冈、大分、宫崎、山口、广岛、爱母、兵库、大阪、京都、奈良、和歌山、滋贺、Mie、岐阜、爱知、静冈、长野、山梨和群马等地的当地研究人员合作，收集了主要从这些地区的墓葬中出土的羽化人的测量和摄影等数据。与研究合作者一起研究了埴轮制作技术的交流和墓室文化的传播，并通过墓室建造技术的交流考察了地方酋长之间的政治关系。其次，在这个研究项目中，我们举办了9次研讨会，与研究合作者分享研究成果，明确共同的方法和问题。我们邀请了古代史研究者，从古代手工工业历史的角度探讨了哈尼瓦工业技术交流的政治意义问题。最后，我对照片、图纸等数据研究资料进行分类，并与研究合作者一起撰写了报告，这是自2005年以来三年的研究成果。

The tumulus with Figural-Haniwa which require high technical specialty spread rapidly from the Kinki district to other regions in the first-half of the Kofun Period. As the background of this fact, we can assume manufacture of Haniwa figures at those regions by Haniwa-craftsmen sent from the Kinki district. Those tumuli were built intensively in the end of the Early Kofun period (around the end of 4 century), the middle of Middle Kofun period (around the middle of 5 century), and the end of Middle Kofun period (around the end of 5 century).First, we compiled data such as measurement and photography of Haniwa-figures excavated mainly from these tumuli at each region in collaboration with local researchers, in Fukuoka, Oita, Miyazaki, Yamaguchi, Hiroshima, Ehime, Hyogo, Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, Wakayama, Shiga, Mie, Gifu, Aichi, Shizuoka, Nagano, Yamanashi and Gunma.And we study exchanges of the haniwa-Production techniques and the spread of the tumulus culture with research collaborators, and examined political relations between local chiefs through exchanges of the techniques of tumulus construction.Second, we held a workshop of 9 times during this Research Project, to share the study result and to clarify the method and problems in common with research collaborators. We invited the ancient history researcher, and discussed the problems about political significance of the technique exchange in Haniwa-industry from a viewpoint of the ancient manual industry history.Finally, I classified data research materials such as photographs and drawings, and made the report whereby I put together with research collaborators, the study result of this Research Project after three years since 2005.
