The Central Highlands over Yamanashi and Nagano are located in the center of the Japanese Archipelago. Many obsidian mines were operated there during the Jomon period. The Jomon people were fascinated with the bright obsidian flakes mined from under the ground. Besides, a variety of pottery types and dogu clay figurines have been excavated from the area. Visitors will definitely be able to develop a feeling of closeness to the Jomon people

Experience unbelievable art from the Stone Age in Yamanashi, Japan.

Период Дзёмон в Японии – это время, когда охотники, собиратели и рыболовы перешли к оседлости. Казалось бы, они вели довольно простую жизнь, но на самом деле у них была своя общественная структура, они владели весьма сложными технологиями и создали обширную торговую сеть.

当館は、日本文化の講究に必要な文化財を収集・保存し、学術的な研究成果を一般に公開するとともに、広く学内外の研究教育活動に資することを目的として設置された大学博物館である。その淵源は、昭和３（1928）年創設の考古学陳列室（後の考古学資料室・考古学資料館）と、昭和38（1963）年創設の神道学資料室（後の神道資料展示室・神道資料館）にあり、両組織を統合した学術資料館や、伝統文化リサーチセンター資料館の設置を経て、平成25（2013）年に國學院大學博物館が発足した。 常設展では、校史・学術資産研究センターの所管資料を交えながら大学の歩みを辿り、考古学から見た日本列島の歴史を通観した上で、神道と日本文化に対する理解を深めていくことができる。 また、特別展・企画展や特集展示による研究公開事業をはじめ、各種の教育普及事業、博物館連携事業などを通して、社会に開かれた大学の窓口としての役割も担っている。 This Museum was founded with the goals of gathering and preserving cultural artifacts necessary to the study of Japanese culture, conducting and publicizing research, and engaging in collborative educational and research activities within the context of Kokugakuin University and beyond. The origins of this museum date back to two earlier institutions:The Museum of Archaeology founded in 1928 and the shinto Museum founded in 1963. These were later merged and then finally in 2013 developed into the Kokugakuin University Museum.The permanent exhibition includes exhibits detailing the history of the university and the academic resource archive as well as archaeological research into the history of the Japanese archipelago. It is hoped that these materials will help visitors to deepen their understanding of both Shinto and Japanese culture in general.There are also special exhibitions, events, and collections relating to the publicization of research projects and findings and various types of educational activities and promotions. Through various educational activities and collaboration with other museums, this University also serves to make the work of Kokugakuin University open to the wider public.
