- ... that the world's oldest lacquerware (sample pictured) was found at the Kakinoshima Site? Source: "However, the oldest lacquer products in the world are documented in the Kameda Peninsula of Hokkaido. Lacquer-painted pottery has been AMS dated to approximately 9000 cal BP at Kakinoshima B" [1]
- Reviewed: Clarence E. Willard
- Comment: The image included is of a similar, but slightly more recent example, not the oldest piece of lacquerware itself.
