| Okinawa Archaeology.
As of 2003, Okinawa Prefectural Buried Cultural Center Master Mr. Asato
has a detailed knowledge of the South Ryukyu Zone (Miyako and Yaeyama
Area) showing the aspect different from the North Ryukyu continuing into
Okinawa's main island from Kyushu in the prehistoric culture of Okinawa.
In the digging of Twuguru Hama (Beach) Remains set out by himself, at
the beginning of the research, he pointed out the possibility reaching
back through the times that it was a thing before and after Christ, but
it seemed to be a thing at the prior period . And he demonstrated the
hypothesis for a long time after he modified that it was remains 4,000
years old by the carbon dating in 2002. In South Ryukyu, many seashell
axes made of a shakogai are found, but there is not any seashell axes
in the north from North Ryukyu. He thinks that the seashell axes culture
that arose in the Philippines to the Sulawesi island in Indonesia was
introduced into the Ryukyu islands in the process of diffusing to the
South Pacific Ocean, so he attends the digging of fields overseas such
as in the Philippines actively,. Following the Earthenware culture, the
Non-earthware culture presented itself, the prehistory culture of the
South Ryukyu owning the original Seashell Axes Culture Period is very
dynamic and interesting. Furthermore, although it has the old possibility,
about the submarine remains , he is quite skeptical about the fact that
the comtemporary Yonaguni was at the Stone Age, including the surrounding
countries such as the Taiwan don't have any Stone Culture similar to the
submarine remains. There are many arguments going beyond time
and space. |
