Ibusuki Archaeological Museum, Archaeological museum in Jūnichō, Japan.

The Ibusuki Archaeological Museum is an archaeological museum in Jūnichō displaying finds from the Hashimuregawa excavation site. Its collection includes stone tools, pottery, and other artifacts that document the lives of early inhabitants in this region.

The museum was founded in 1996 and houses findings that show how early settlements emerged in this area. These archaeological discoveries help us understand the history of human settlement in the Ibusuki region.

The exhibits reveal how people lived and worked in this region, displaying tools and everyday items from different time periods. You can observe the crafting techniques that were used and how these skills changed over centuries.
