中国文明起源解明の新・考古学イニシアティブ

6月12日・13日 第35回領域セミナー(第14回若手育成セミナー)を開催しました。

6月12日・13日、ウズベキスタン共和国の首都タシケント所在のウズベキスタン・日本青年技術革新センター(UJICY)にて、奈良文化財研究所が文化庁から受託している「ウズベキスタンにおける考古遺産の科学的調査に関する技術移転を目的とした拠点交流事業」との同時開催で、第35回領域セミナー(第14回若手育成セミナー)を開催しました。
初日には、UJICY側からの歓迎の挨拶に続き、佐々木由香講師による実習「土器圧痕レプリカの走査型電子顕微鏡(SEM)による観察」が行われ、同センターに設置された電子顕微鏡を用いた実践的な分析の実習が行われました。
二日目は、午前中に庄田慎矢講師による「ガスクトマトグラフィーを用いた考古学的残存有機物分析」およびラシドフ=ニヨズ氏によるサマルカンド考古学研究所の概要紹介が行われました。和やかな雰囲気の昼食会の後、午後にはやはり同センターに設置されたガスクロマトグラフ質量分析計(GC-MS)を用い、庄田慎矢講師による実習「調理実験土器から抽出した残存脂質のGC-MS分析」を行いました。
UJICYの理工系研究者およびサマルカンド、タシケント、ナマンガンの考古学者、保存修復学者ら22名が参加し、多様な視点からの活発な質疑応答がなされました。奈文研・UJICY・サマルカンド考古学研究所の三者は昨年に「学術協力および交流に関する覚書」を締結したところであり、それぞれの持ち味を生かした交流事業が今後も続けられていく予定です。

On June 12 and 13, the 35th seminar was held at the Uzbek-Japan Innovation Center of Youth (UJICY) in Tashkent, the capital of the Republic of Uzbekistan, in conjunction with the “Exchange Program for Technological Transfer of Scientific Research on Archaeological Heritage in Uzbekistan” commissioned by the Japanese Agency for Cultural Affairs to the Nara National Research Institute for Cultural Properties. This 35th seminar was also carried out as the 14th Seminar for the Development of Young Researchers in Uzbekistan.

On the first day, following a welcome speech by the UJICY, Dr. Yuka Sasaki gave a practical training on “Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) Observation of Pottery Impression Replicas,” which involved a practical analysis using the SEM installed at the center.In the morning of the second day, Dr. Shinya Shoda presented the lecture titled “Analysis of Archaeological Residual Organic Material Using Gas Chromatography” and Mr. Niyoz Rashidov provided an overview of the Samarkand Archaeological Institute. After a friendly luncheon, Dr. Shoda gave a hands-on training session on “GC-MS Analysis of Residual Lipids Extracted from Cooking Pottery.” The participants had the opportunity to use the gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer (GC-MS) also installed at the center.
Twenty-two participants, including UJICY science and engineering researchers, archaeologists, and conservators from Samarkand, Tashkent, and Namangan, engaged in a lively question and answer session from a variety of perspectives. The Nara National Research Institute for Cultural Properties, UJICY, and the Samarkand Archaeoloigcial Institute signed a “Memorandum of Understanding for Academic Cooperation and Exchange” last year, and will continue to conduct exchange programs that take advantage of their respective strengths.
35-hududiy seminar (14-Yoshlarga ta’lim seminari)

12-13-iyun kunlari O’zbekiston Respublikasi poytaxti Toshkent shahridagi O’zbekiston-Yaponiya yoshlar innovatsiya markazida (UJICY) Nara madaniy meros tadqiqot instituti Madaniyat agentligidan olingan “O’zbekistonda arxeologik merosni ilmiy tadqiq qilish uchun texnologiyalarni ko’chirishni maqsad qilgan bazaviy almashinuv loyihasi” bilan bir vaqtda 35-hududiy seminar (14-Yoshlarni tarbiyalash seminari) o’tkazildi. Birinchi kuni UJICY tomonidan salomlashish va qutlov nutqidan so’ng, ma’ruzachi Sasaki Yuka tomonidan amaliy mashg’ulot “Sopol idishlarning replika nusxalarini skanerlash elektron mikroskopi (SEM) bilan kuzatish” bo’lib o’tdi va shu markazga o’rnatilgan elektron mikroskop yordamida amaliy tahlil mashqlari o’tkazildi. Ikkinchi kuni ertalab ma’ruzachi Shoda Shinya tomonidan “Gaz xromatografiyasi yordamida arxeologik qoldiq organik moddalarini tahlil qilish” va Niyoz Rashidov tomonidan Samarqand arxeologiya institutining taqdimoti bo’lib o’tdi. Tushlikdagi iliq do’stona muhitdan so’ng yana shu markazda o’rnatilgan gaz xromatograf-mass spektrometri (GC-MS) yordamida ma’ruzachi Shoda Shinya tomonidan amaliy mashg’ulot “Pishirish tajribasi keramikasidan chiqarilgan qoldiq yog’larning GC-MS tahlili” o’tkazildi. UJICY ilm-fan olimlari va Samarqand, Toshkent, Namangan arxeologlari, konservatsiya va restavratsiya olimlari jami 22 kishi ishtirok etdilar va turli nuqtai nazarlardan faol savol-javoblar bo’ldi. Nara ilmiy tekshiruv instituti, UJICY va Samarqand arxeologiya instituti o’tgan yili “Ilmiy hamkorlik va almashinuv to’g’risida yodnoma”ni imzolaganlar va har biri o’ziga xos xususiyatlarni namoyon qiluvchi almashinuv loyihasi kelajakda ham davom etishi rejalashtirilgan.
