Field notes
The site frames its name as a reference to eighth-century records of provincial land, customs, and lore. Its visible stories connect named makers and artists with specific materials and settings, while navigation points to separate series, places, a catalogue, connections, and a glossary. The homepage offers a JA/EN switch, though the extract does not show how much content is available in each language.
