Description

The purpose of this research is to clarify the relationship between East Africa and Asia from the perspective of ceramics trade. To that end, we challenged to acquire research funds through crowdfunding. As a result, we acquired our travel expenses to Africa and conducted our field survey in the summer of 2018. We went to Zanzibar, Dar es Salaam, Bagamoyo, and Kilwa Kisiwani, and surveyed some museums and archaeological sites and investigated ceramics. In Zanzibar, we found some Japanese porcelains in the Palace museum. They were produced in Arita, Saga prefecture in the 19th century. And we collected many shards of Chinese porcelain on the beach in Stone Town, Zanzibar. They show us the condition of ceramic trade in the Indian Ocean. Then we researched on the collection of museums in Dar es Salaam and Bagamoyo. Moreover we went to Kilwa Kisiwani site and researched the tomb of Sultan where Japanese porcelain was discovered half a century ago. It was blue and white dish with the design of Kraak style and was produced in Arita in the 17th century. Although the research on ceramic trade between East Africa and Asia in the early modern period has just begun, we have found the possibility of the research.
