Subsequent excavations have revealed a large number of dwelling sites, earthenware, ornaments, fish and animal bones, and other artifacts. The site was opened as a garden in 1985. With a bronze statue of Morse, specimens of shellfish beds, and a mist, it has become a place of recreation and relaxation for the residents of the district. The Shinagawa History Museum, a 5-minute walk from the garden, is also recommended as visitors can enjoy exhibits of excavated materials.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"js-way\"><span class=\"ja\"><span>Spot Outline<\/span><\/span><span class=\"en\">Outline<\/span><\/h3>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>address (e.g. of house)<\/th>\n<td>\n6-21-6 Oi, Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Access<\/th>\n<td>\n5 minutes from JR Omori Station<\/p>\n<div class=\"elem-sec_01 mrg-style_21\"><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">phone<\/th>\n<td><a class=\"link-style_02\" href=\"tel:%E3%81%AA%E3%81%97\">nashi (Pyrus pyrifolia, esp. var. culta)<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Business Hours<\/th>\n<td>\n9:00-17:00 (July-August &#8211; 18:00, November-February &#8211; 16:00)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">regular closing day<\/th>\n<td>\nnashi (Pyrus pyrifolia, esp. var. culta)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">External Links<\/th>\n<td>\n<p><a class=\"link-style_03\" href=\"https:\/\/www.city.shinagawa.tokyo.jp\/jigyo\/06\/historyhp\/kaizuka\/kaizuka.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Official Web Site<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Founding and opening of business<\/th>\n<td>\n1985 (1985)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"historic ruins (remains, relics)Omori, Kamata Omori Shell Mound Site Garden\uff08Omori shell mound garden) cherry blossom viewingleisuretaking one&#8217;s children along (to an event, into a new marriage, etc.) Omori Shell Mound, excavated by Dr. Edward Morse in 1877, is called the &#8220;Cradle of Japanese Archaeology&#8221; because it was the first academic excavation of its kind in Japan.
