Traversed by the Shinano River and its tributary, the Ikarashi River, Sanjo City encompasses a region rich in nature and water. The area was inhabited by the Jomon people, who lived here in harmony with nature, and features many archaeological sites from which a variety of Jomon artifacts, including the iconic flame-style pottery, have been excavated. This exhibition showcases the latest archaeological findings, restored pottery, and cultural artifacts from the Japan Heritage "What on Earth?! Flame Pots and Snow Country Culture in the Shinano River Basin," while exploring the beauty of the Jomon culture and its over 10,000-year legacy.
