5Keino Dotaku

Like the Nikkoji Dotaku, the Keino Dotaku are said to have been excavated at Naka-no-Mido in the former village of Keino (present-day Matsuhokeino, Minamiawaji City). These are gaientsukichu dotaku, which feature a decorative outer flange around the handle. They were discovered on the coast overlooking the Harimanada Sea, which suggests the involvement of the Umi-no-tami in dotaku rituals during the Yayoi period.
