【拡散希望です】初代門司駅関連遺構群を助けて下さい。研究者としての私は無力ですが、学術界が国指定史跡相当と認めた世界遺産級の遺跡、門司の、北九州の、日本の、東アジアの、そして世界の宝、苦しみと喜びの歴史の体現が破壊されることを座視できません。 #門司駅

Our team examined potsherds from six different sites 1st millennium BCE sites from central Japan, spanning occupations before and after the arrival of rice and millet farming

These positions are still open and it is a chance to work with a very international African-European team on key themes in ancient agriculture, resilience and climate change. Have a look at them!! Please spread the info!
