呉市倉橋町室尾周辺出土の考古資料

This paper introduces nine archaeological materials donated to the Hiroshima University Museum by a citizen living in Kure City, Hiroshima Prefecture. The origin and excavation status of these archaeological materials are not clear, but it is possible that they were excavated around Muroo, Kurahashi Town, Kure City.
The stemmed pointed tool is from the early Jomon period and is thought to be made of andesite. With a length of 8.65 cm, a width of 2.6 cm, and a weight of 13 g, it is thin and lightweight. There are 27 stemmed pointed tools excavated in Hiroshima Prefecture, but most of them were surface collected or excavated alone. The planar shape is divided into three types: one in which the base is pointed into an inverted triangle (Class A), one in which both hypotenuses of the inverted triangle of the stem part are concave in the inner bay to produce a short stem part (Class B), and one in which the stem part is clearly bound at right angles from the body to produce a clear and long stem part (Class C), and it is thought that the transition of class A (old) → class B → class C (new) is traced. All three pieces of earthenware are from the Middle Ages: earthenware and bowls, cups, tiles, and bowls.
