Research Topics:

Material ethnography on concepts of the nature.
Recent Research Interests:
I have specialized ethnoarchaeology. The purpose of it is to investigate the formation process of archaeological site and materials. I have been interested in the site formation process of subsistence activities and done my ethnoarchaeological research on that of farming houses or transformation of hunting activity of wild boar to material evidences. The results of them suggested that farmers might leave the variety of sites as the result of their activities. They also showed farmers has developed their own hunting culture. I have come to be interested in the relationship between human and the nature. I am currently interested in that between human beings and animals. It might be effected by surroundings, religion, economics and social and historical background. I try to pursuit the relation ship between them not only at the viewpoint of economy or ecology, but also at that of cultural or sociological context.
