Hida Miyagawa Anthropology Museum, Archaeological and folk museum in Hida, Japan.

The Hida Miyagawa Anthropology Museum preserves archaeological finds and everyday objects from the Hida region in Gifu Prefecture. Its collection includes traditional farming equipment, household items, and artifacts recovered from local excavations spanning different periods.

The museum was founded in 1995 to preserve significant archaeological discoveries from the region's excavations. Its collection includes nationally recognized folk cultural items that document the crafts and traditions of the area.

The exhibits reveal how mountain village residents lived through everyday objects and artifacts on display. Visitors see the tools, furnishings, and household items that shaped daily routines in these communities.
