    • Historic sites・Historic remains
    Kurohama Shell Mound was designated a prefectural historic site on March 31, 1975, as a type site and shell mound for "Kurohama-style pottery" from the early to middle Jomon period, centered in the Kanto region. The Hasuda City Board of Education subsequently conducted a detailed confirmation survey, which concluded that "this shell mound is notable in academic history and is important for considering the changes in the natural environment of southern Kanto and the livelihoods of the time. Furthermore, the settlement structure is seen as the beginning of the circular settlements that became prominent from the middle Jomon period onwards, making it valuable for considering the transition of settlements." Accordingly, the site was designated a "Nationally Designated Historic Site" by Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Notification No. 111 dated July 28, 2006.
