4Matsuho Dotaku

Seven dotaku discovered in the Matsuho area of Minamiawaji City in April 2015. They include one ryokanchu type and six other old-type dotaku from BC. The six dotaku were found nested in three pairs. The Matsuho Dotaku are unique in that they all have zetsu (clappers), and their burial on the coast suggests the involvement of the Umi-no-tami.
