One of the greatest mysteries in the history of Japanese archaeology is now being unraveled. What are Dogu figures? They were <plant images> in which "Japan's oldest myths" were etched! A cutting-edge researcher deciphers the hidden mysteries through "archaeology x iconology research" in this thrilling new research book. Dogu, unglazed earthenware figures, were mass-produced during the Jomon period. They appeared in the Japanese archipelago over 10,000 years ago and vanished abruptly 2,000 years ago. Nearly 20,000 Dogu figures have been discovered throughout the country to date. Common theories about the identity of Dogu include: "representations of pregnant women," "substitutes for illness," "objects of prayer for successful hunting," and "aliens"... but none have been definitively proven. This book reveals the "truth of Dogu" from the heart-shaped Dogu to the Venus of Jomon and the Snow Goggle-eyed Dogu, through <empirical archaeological research> (data) and <iconological research in art history> (iconographic interpretation). It depicts the spiritual history of the Jomon people, which connects to the present day. Japan, a history of 5,000 years. A new development in humanities books that clarifies the psychological roots of modern people.
