Abstract
Several granite quarries in the area around the Seto Inland Sea, southwest Japan were visited and investigated how they have got to flourish and have been operating during the last century. Cretaceous to Paleogene granite intrusive bodies are exposed in the area which have provided many granite quarries. Some granite quarry had mainly produced building quarries until about 1970’s, but many of the surviving granite quarry presently produce tombstone and religious products. Interview survey in those stone quarries revealed that they are not really alike with each other, but have had different histories in consequence of their locations and resources.
