This symbol represents flowing water. Water implies a source of life with the ensuing benefits. By using this symbol, the image of water is likened to the roots of culture in general. Furthermore,  flowing water evokes images of fluidity and life force. These images are indicative of Nichibunken's learning style, pursuing dynamic studies of Japanese culture. The three lines of the symbol, the centerline connecting the other lines, denote the interdisciplinary and international exchange sought by Nichibunken.

High-definition aerial photo (WebGIS).

Nichibunken Databases Large Map is a Web GIS site using high-resolution aerial photo as a base map. You could get three-dimensional values by clicking on the monitor, and you could view spatial information of archaeological sites on the base map. We published aerial photo of Nara, Kyoto and a part of Shiga prefecture, a database of summary in archaeological report, and a ancient map of Heian-kyo on this site. We are making effort to expand our contents now.
