下野谷遺跡公園

The Shimonoya Archaeological Park spans 3,173 square meters and features reconstructed pit dwellings, soil layer models, and open grasslands with chestnut and walnut trees.

The site, discovered in the 1970s, revealed a large-scale Jomon period settlement arranged in two concentric circles along the right bank of the Shakujii River.

The park preserves the remains of a Jomon period settlement where archaeologists found Kasori E and Katsusaka style pottery, indicating connections with northern and mountain regions.

Visitors can reach the park by walking 400 meters south from Higashi-Fushimi Station on the Seibu Shinjuku Line toward the Ome Kaido road.

The underground area still contains parts of the western settlement, while the surface displays reconstructions and models showing life during the Jomon period.
