I'm glad you and everyone in Tokyo are doing alright, but I hope the people in western Japan are ok.

Thanks for your message! Tsunami warnings, fires, major damage to roads and buildings...but no deaths reported. I think many people will have a very cold night, and I hope there won't be big aftershocks. English updates here.

Sean bienvenidos, japonistasarqueologicos a una nueva entrega en la que hablaremos sobre el asunto de Japón y las aguas residuales al mar una vez dicho esto pongan cómodos que empezamos. - Hace poco están en todos los medios de comunicación del mundo, que Japón tiene luz verde por la ONU para verter agua tratada en la planta nuclear de Fukushima en el accidente acontecido en 2011. - Hay más de 1.000 tanques y 1,34 millones de toneladas, posiblemente al 98% de la capacidad, además se está analizando el agua de mar y los alrededores de la central nuclear, actualmente se está analizando la concentración de tritio, los resultados estarán disponibles el día 25 por la tarde, previamente se habían tomado muestras de agua de los depósitos dando como resultado que era seguro, pero posiblemente tendrían que haber esperado más tiempo. - La población japonesa, se manifiesta al respecto porque esto va a generar problemas a largo plazo a la economía mundial. China suspende todas las importaciones de productos del mar japoneses, no se iba a quedar de brazos cruzados ¿Qué opinan ustedes al respecto? - Espero que os haya gustado y nos vemos en próximas publicaciones que pasen una buena semana.

考古学の日本研究者の皆様、ようこそ！今回は、日本と海への汚水問題についてお話しします。

最近、日本が2011年の福島原発事故の処理水を海洋投棄することを国連から許可されたことが世界中のメディアを賑わせている。

タンクは1000基以上、134万トンあり、おそらく容量の98％であろう。また、海水と原発周辺は分析中で、現在はトリチウムの濃度が分析されており、25日の午後に結果が出る予定である。以前は貯水池から水を採取し、安全であるという結果を出していたが、おそらくもっと待つべきだったのだろう。

日本国民が抗議しているのは、これが世界経済に長期的な問題を引き起こすからである。中国が日本産水産物の輸入を全面的に停止したのだから、黙って見過ごすわけがない。 これについてどう思う？

お気に召していただけたなら幸いである。 それではまた、良い一週間を。

Welcome, japonistasarqueologicos to a new installment in which we will talk about the issue of Japan and sewage into the sea, that said, make yourselves comfortable and let's get started. - It has recently been all over the world's media that Japan has been given the green light by the UN to dump treated water into the Fukushima nuclear power plant from the 2011 accident. - There are more than 1,000 tanks and 1.34 million tons, possibly at 98% of capacity, also the sea water and the surroundings of the nuclear plant are being analysed, currently the concentration of tritium is being analysed, the results will be available on the 25th in the afternoon, previously water samples had been taken from the reservoirs giving as a result that it was safe, but possibly they should have waited longer. - The Japanese people are protesting because this is going to create long-term problems for the world economy. China suspends all imports of Japanese seafood, they are not going to sit back and do nothing. What do you think about this? - I hope you liked it and I'll see you in future posts. Have a good week.

There are four major Japanese festivals in the Tohoku region. One of these is the Yamagata Hanagasa Festival (山形花笠まつり), which is held from 5th-7th August. It consists of a parade where people dance to a traditional Yamagata folk song known as Hanagasa Ondo (花笠音頭 - "flower hat song"). Although there is a traditional dance that accompanies the song (花笠踊り) that is performed with a straw hat decorated with flowers, the festival now consists of many groups performing creative and unique interpretations using a variety of props (although the flower straw hat remains a dominant feature).

I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to go. Here's a snippet of one of my favourite parts! You can hear the dancers repeating the kakegoe (掛け声 - shout of encouragement to a set timing. An example in English would be "heave ho!") It goes:

は やっしょ まっかしょ！しゃん しゃん しゃん、それ！

Ha yassho makkasho! Shan shan shan, sore!

Originally, the song was sung by workers constructing the embankment in Obanazawa as they compacted dirt into it. Following its construction, a parade was held by the community where those involved wore the sedge hats (conical straw hats) dyed red using safflower (a crop of the region). These are the hats - the hanagasa - you can see used by the performers in the first part of the video.

Many of the performing groups replaced "shan shan shan" with the name of their group or the company they were representing (as you can hear from this group). As far as I know, the kakegoe doesn't have any meaning, however "sore!" can be translated as something like "just like that!" or "that's the way!" or even "yeah! let's go!" Some of the performing groups and a lot of the audience would just chant "sore!" rather than the whole kakegoe.

Also from the Tohoku shop! I finally got to try butter mochi, which I'd been curious about for a long time! It's different from Hawaiian butter mochi (which I am also VERY interested in trying), which is a baked good made with glutinous rice flour. This was just....... butter, plus mochi. And there's a reason I'm putting 'butter' first. It was a whole lot like biting into a stick of butter. It was too much like biting into a stick of butter. I think there was sugar and egg in there too but honestly who knows. Butter goo.

Despite my excitement, this was pretty unpleasant. I'd try it again, if I had the opportunity to buy it made fresh in Akita or from a famous butter mochi maker, but yeah, this was not for me.

日本の考古学者の皆さん、日出ずる国からの新しい回にようこそ！今回は嵐播神社についてお話しします。 - 嵐播神社は宮城県にある。荒神館 どの神様を祀っているのですか？謎に包まれた神で、東北地方と関東地方で信仰されている。荒祭神社は多賀城市にあり、正確な創建年代は不明だが、1774年に創建されたと記録されている。 - 津軽外三郡誌とは？和田喜八郎によって発見された古文書である。しかし、現在では偽書である可能性もあり、アラハバキはむしろ津軽地方を支配していた一族の名前に見える。議論のために、あなたの意見をコメントに残してください。 - それではまた、良い一週間をお過ごしください。
