Tomizawa sitepalaeolithicSendaiburied forestarchaeology

宫城县 · Sendai

In 1988, digging for a new school in the Tomizawa district of Sendai, archaeologists found a forest floor from twenty thousand years ago: about a hundred tree stumps and roots still in place, and among them the charcoal of campfires left by people of the palaeolithic. Waterlogged ground had preserved the wood.

The museum was built over the excavation and the floor is the exhibit — you look down at the actual surface, stumps, fires and all, in a darkened hall. Nowhere else in Japan shows a palaeolithic living surface with its landscape intact. Outside, a section of the site has been replanted with the species identified from the pollen record. Note that a major refurbishment is scheduled to close it from 31 August 2026 until around March 2029.

独家私藏情报

**Check whether it is open.** A refurbishment is scheduled to close it from 31 August 2026 to around March 2029. Confirm before making the trip. **The floor is the exhibit.** A twenty-thousand-year-old forest surface with stumps and campfires in situ, viewed from above in a darkened hall. There is no comparable display in Japan. **The rest days are complicated.** Mondays, the day after a public holiday, and the fourth Thursday from January to November. Read the rules rather than assuming. **Go outside afterwards.** A section of ground has been replanted with the species identified from the pollen, so you can walk through a reconstruction of the same forest. **Five minutes from the subway.** Tomizawa on the Namboku Line, which makes it one of the easiest museums in Sendai to reach.
