 note = {application/pdf, The location of the excavation site is so-called Nishiyagi, 509 Miyanishi, Yagi, Okubo-cho, Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture, Central Japan.
HARUNARI and NISHIMOTO, both of the National Museum of Japanese History, led the excavation, in which a great many scholars and studehts from all over Japan from Hokkaido to Kagoshima and from many different fields, including archaeology, geology, paleontology, anthropology, and geoscience, participated. The excavation was conducted from the lst through the 2lst of March, 1985.
An excavation unit 25×11 meters square was set up on the top of the sea cliff which was 12 meters in height. The first 8 meters were excavated with earth-moving equipment, then the next 2.4 meters were excavated by hand. The gravel and sand layer from which the original Akashi bone supposedly derived covered an area of 8 by 6 meters of the excavation unit. During excavation of this unit a piece of worked wood (26.9 cm long, 5 cm wide, and 3～7 mm thick) was recovered. About one year after the excavation was finished, a single stone flake which had been recovered from the gravel/sand layer in the cliff by a passerby in 1965 was brought to the attention of the research team.
This excavation has clarified the existence of Late Pleistocene humans in the Akashi District.},
