Yoshinogari Ruins

The Yoshinogari Ruins are an important archaeological site in Japan that reveal the life of Japan’s late Yayoi period (around 300 BCE to 300 CE). Located in Saga Prefecture, it features well-preserved remains of ancient settlements, including circular moats, watchtowers, and houses. These findings suggest a complex society with social hierarchy, craftsmanship, and trade. The site offers valuable insights into early Japanese agriculture, culture, and community organization. Today, it is an open-air museum where visitors can explore reconstructed structures and learn about Japan's prehistoric history.
