The Shakoki-Dogu clay figurine is a familiar sight in textbooks. In Aomori Prefecture, Shakoki-Dogu is affectionately known as "Shako-chan," and when Shako-chan stuffed toys went on sale at the National Museum, they sold out in an instant. Its indescribable cuteness continues to fascinate many people today! So, what is it that fascinates so many people? The answer is actually in the size (proportions) of the Shakoki-Dogu, which is still relevant today! This time, we will explore the charm and cuteness of the Shakoki-Dogu at the Kamegaoka Stone Age Ruins in Tsugaru City, Aomori Prefecture, where Shako-chan was found! : Places visited this time *Not a project↓ ●JR Gono Line Kizukuri Station https://www.jreast.co.jp/akita/gonose... ↓ (About 20 minutes on foot) ●Jomon Dwellings Exhibition Museum Karuko https://www.city.tsugaru.aomori.jp/so...
