This is a joint research project based on materials passed on to the Institute from the Shibusawa Foundation for Ethnological Studies, along with the Attic Museum’s photographs and films. In particular, the project will conduct follow-up surveys and collect information associated with previous research. It will coordinate the effective use of the materials between the institutions possessing these materials of the same origin.
