JŌMON POTTERY VESSELS ARE THE OLDEST IN THE WORLD..."
PIC INFO: Spotlight on a Neolithic Jomon vessel from Japan, c. Middle Jōmon Period (c. 3,500? - 2,500 BCE), designated National Important Cultural Properties in 1988.
MINI-OVERVIEW: "Jōmon pottery vessels are the oldest in the world. They are characterized by their decoration from impressions, which resemble rope. The word Jōmon means "cord markings" or "patterns."
Because the Jōmon period covered a great deal of time, the vessels themselves changed throughout the period.
