Washinoki Site: Artifacts excavated from the Washinoki Site 2

These clay and stone objects are from the era when the stone circle at the Washinoki Site was constructed. Similar objects have been found in the northern Tohoku region. Like the pottery, the similarity is considered closely related to the spread of stone circles in those days.
