Special Historic Site Kasori Midden

It is one of Japan's largest Jōmon period midden, and the only national historic site in the midden. The vast site, which is about three Tokyo Domes, is dotted with museums and viewing facilities where a cross-section of shellfish formations can be seen, as well as restored pit dwellings. At the museum, Jomon pottery and stone tools excavated locally are displayed, providing an easy-to-understand explanation of the lives of Jomon people.
