Remains - Iko (English) structure

Japanese: 遺構 - いこう（英語表記）structure

Among the traces left by humans, those that cannot be moved include remains of buildings indicating habitation, remains of various ditches, various graves, places of ritual, roads, and various other remains related to human life, such as rice paddies, fields, pastures, fishing grounds, hunting grounds, and other things directly related to production, kiln remains, smelting sites, and other places related to the production of tools, and places where unnecessary items were discarded. At excavation sites, it is not possible to determine the use of all remains, but many have been confirmed thanks to today's improved survey accuracy and the development of various natural science analytical methods.

人間が残した痕跡のうち，動かすことのできないもの。居住などを示す建物の跡，各種の溝の跡，さまざまな墓，祭祀の場，道路など，そのほか水田，畑，牧場，漁場，狩場など生産に直接かかわるもの，窯跡，精錬址のような道具の生産にかかわった場，不要なものを捨てた場など人間の暮しに関する種々の遺構がある。発掘調査の現場においては，すべての遺構の用途を決定できないが，今日の調査精度の向上と各種の自然科学的な分析法の発展により多くのものが確認されている。
