What is the Jomon Goddess?
It is a clay figure from the middle Jomon period, excavated from the Nishinomae site in Funagata Town, Yamagata Prefecture, and designated a National Treasure in 2012. At about 45 cm tall it is among the largest in Japan, with a slender, refined form. It is on permanent display, so you can see it at any time.
What is the Yamagata Daikaigyu fossil?
It is the fossil of a new species of sea cow (order Sirenia) found in Yamagata Prefecture, the only individual known in the world. The actual specimen is on display and has drawn international attention as a discovery.
What is the difference between the special exhibitions and the permanent exhibition?
The permanent exhibition presents the nature and culture of Yamagata Prefecture as a whole, across six sections: geology, plants, animals, archaeology, history and folklore. Special exhibitions run for a limited period on a particular theme, and may carry a separate admission charge.
