Part B_2　Passage reading

Digging into mystery

The Jomon people created many artifacts. The five dogu are one of them. “Jomon Venus” represents a pregnant woman. “Jomon Goddess” looks very modern. Some believe that the dogu in prayer is praying for a healthy baby. The other two are unique in design. The first one has a triangular mask, and the last one has a heart-shaped mask.

Maybe the Jomon people were obsessed with dogu. After all, people have found more than 18,000 dogu throughout Japan. Researchers are trying to figure out the true reason behind the creation of dogu. Maybe they were used for rituals. Or maybe they were just toys. We do not know what the purpose of dogu is. But we know that they were important to the Jomon people.

The Jomon culture still has a great influence on us today. A well-known Japanese artist created a tower inspired by the dogu with a heart-shaped face. A movie director also spent five years visiting 100 Jomon sites before filming a movie about the Jomon culture.
