    Description

    Clay doll Dogu Jomon era
    Description
    It has been in my house for several decades. I don't know when or how I got it.
    I left it in a room where I don't usually use it, but it didn't get covered with dust.
    The color of the surface is uneven, with some blackish and some reddish, and I think it was made using the same firing method as actual clay figurines.
    There are cracks in some places (photos 8 and 10), but they are not cracks.
    Since it is a clay figurine, it is hard to tell if the old look is from the original or from aging.

    Dogū (Japanese: Dogu, IPA: [doɡɯː]; literally "earthen figure") are small humanoid and animal figurines made during the later part of the Jōmon period (14,000–400 BC) of prehistoric Japan.A Dogū come exclusively from the Jōmon  period, and were no longer made by the following Yayoi period.There are various styles of dogū, depending on the exhumation area and time period.According to the National Museum of Japanese History, the total number found throughout Japan is approximately 15,000.  made across all of Japan, except Okinawa. Most of the dogū have been found in eastern Japan and it is rare to find one in western Japan.The purpose of the dogū remains unknown and should not be confused with the clay haniwa funerary  objects of the Kofun period (250 – 538 CE).
