Visited the Hoshikusokan #obsidian mine display room which was located in the woods on a mountainside slope above the Kokuyōseki Taiken Museum, Nagawa Town, #Nagano Pref.
Took about a 35-minute trek up the mountain with a cow bell to ward off bears & numerous stops along the steep trail to rest the ageing legs & lungs.
Display showed how the ancients dug deeper over the ages for the material to make their knives & arrowheads.
Display closes from 1 Dec to 30 Apr.

  Nagawa Town Obsidian Museum｜Dig deeper to discover another Japan! Prehistoric encounter! See the products and settlements of Jomon pottery makers in the Central Highlands over Yamanashi and Nagano.
  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
