Excerpt from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. Today, the history of the Earth is divided by 116 geological age boundaries, each of which is defined by the strata whose boundaries are best understood in the world. The cross section of this stratum is called the Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point, and 73 GSSPs have been defined so far. Unraveling the history of the earth and clarifying the changes in the global environment in the past are not only the fundamental desires of humankind, but also very important and romantic for future prediction. The International Union of Geological Sciences; IUGS, an organization of UNESCO, has GSSP the international type locality, which is the easiest place to observe and study the boundaries of each geological age on the earth, in order to standardize the time scale that is the basis of it.). In January 2020, the “Chiba Section”, a geological cross section exposed on the banks of the Yoro River in Tabuchi, Ichihara City, Chiba Prefecture, was recognized as a GSSP at the International Union of Geological (Tronheim, Chiba Prefecture). The name of the geological era (129,000 years ago) was named “Chibanian” which means “Chiba era” on January 17, 2020, and the place name of Japan will be engraved in the history of the earth for the first time. It was an era from about 774,000 years ago to 129,000 years ago, when there was no name until now. The compass always has the north pole facing north. This seems to be because the earth itself is like a big magnet. The magnetic field of the earth is called geomagnetism. Currently, the vicinity of the North Pole is the S pole and the vicinity of the South Pole is the N pole, but it seems that it is known that it has been reversed many times from the long history of the earth. However, it is not yet clear why it will be reversed. As the boundary of Calabrian, the name plate “Golden Spike” indicating that it has been certified as a world standard is installed. Although the Covid-19 catastrophe is in the midst of a pandemic, a commemorative ceremony was held on May 21, 2022, and it was unveiled to the people concerned. It seems that a circular plate made by “FUJI SASH CO., LTD.” (Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture), which has a factory in Ichihara City, was attached to the Chiba section. Made of brass with a diameter of 20 cm and a thickness of 5 cm, it is engraved with “Chibanian GSSP 2020 JAPAN Ichihara City”. The plate will also be exhibited at the Ichihara City Hall and the local guidance facility “Chibanian Visitor Center”. The land of “Ichihara”, which is blessed with a warm climate and the bounty of the sea and mountains, has approximately 2,500 archaeological sites and 45 shell mounds throughout the Jomon and Yayoi periods. The land of Boso was called Fusa no Kuni because it produced a lot of high-quality hemp (総; bush, which is made by bundling threads and hair and separating the tips). After the Taika Reform, the Kazusa ancient provincial government offices (under the ritsuryo system); provincial capital was established in Ichihara and prospered as the center of culture and administration. From the Edo period to the Taisho era, the Yoro River, which runs through the city, was used as a trunk line for the transportation of goods. In 1899, a large-scale merger of towns and villages merged 172 villages into 20 villages per town. The railway was opened between Soga and Anegasaki in March 1912. In March 1925, Kominato Railway’s Goi-Satomi section went all the way to Nakano in May 1928. Since 1957, the coastal area has been reclaimed and has become one of Japan’s leading industrial areas. In May 1963, the five towns of Goi, Ichihara, Anesaki, Ichizu, and Sanwa merged to form Ichihara City. Furthermore, in October 1967, Nanso Town and Kamo Village were incorporated to make it what it is today. Adjacent cities are Chiba City, Mobara City, Kisarazu City, Kimitsu City, Sodegaura City, Nagara Town, Chonan Town, and Otaki Town, with an area of 368.17 km2. From Tokyo Bay to the Boso Hill Range, about 22 km east-west and about 36 km north-south, the location of the government office is 140 degrees 6 minutes 56 seconds east longitude and 35 degrees 29 minutes 53 seconds north latitude. Located in the center of the Boso Peninsula in Chiba Prefecture. Blessed with a warm climate and abundant nature from ancient times, it has prospered as a political and economic center, with the Kazusa Kokufu being established during the Asuka and Nara periods, and the largest Kokubunji and Kokubunniji（Hokke Metsuzai no Tera Temple）temples in Japan. Today, Japan’s largest petrochemical complex and high-quality bed towns, where global companies are located in the north facing Tokyo Bay, are spreading, and in the south there are abundant nature such as the Yoro Gorge and golf courses boasting the largest number of courses in Japan. , The attraction that is the center of domestic economy and leisure is spreading. Located in the Tokyo metropolitan area, it is widely known as a city with good access, where you can reach central Tokyo, Haneda International Airport, and Narita International Airport in about an hour. In Ichihara City, Yawata, Goi, Anesaki, where the JR Uchibo Line runs facing Tokyo Bay, Tatsumidai, Chiharadai, Ariaki, a large-scale residential area, Sanwa, Ichizu in the inland area, rich nature and satoyama spread out. There are 10 areas in Nanso and Kamo, each of which is a charming city with history and characteristics. The Goi / Kokubunjidai area is one of the largest petrochemical complexes in Japan, with factories of global companies located in Tokyo Bay, centered on JR Goi Station, which is the gateway to Ichihara City. It is the central city of the city where you can feel the history and future, with the ruins, the ruins of Kazusakokubunnji Temple, which boasts the largest scale in Japan, and the current city hall. In the Yawata / Tatsumidai area, Iioka Hachimangu, which is said to be the Kazusa Kokuso Shrine, is located around JR Yawatajuku Station, which has a long history and tradition. At that time, there is the Tatsumidai housing complex, which was said to be the best in the Orient. The area around Yawatajuku Station is undergoing land readjustment, and Tatsumidai is currently undergoing renewal into a good detached residential area, making it easy to live with a well-equipped living base. Ichihara Sporek Park in the area is the 2019 practice base for “Hito-Communications Sunwolves” participating in Super Rugby. The Anegasaki / Ariaki area is centered around JR Anegasaki Station, with the largest petrochemical complex in Japan where factories of global companies are located in Tokyo Bay, and large-scale residential areas that support factory employees inland. It is a city that prospered as a bed town. It is very convenient because it is close to the Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line and outlet malls. Chiharadai is a new town with a large-scale development of about 370 ha, and has been integrated with Oyumino in Chiba City. It is a popular residential area where nature and greenery are in harmony with the well-arranged cityscape and shopping malls. Shizu is an area rich in nature, close to Chiba City and Mobara City, and has excellent accessibility. In recent years, the Uruido district has been developed and many young families are beginning to live there. Within the area, there are Teikyo Heisei University’s Chiba Campus and Chiharadai Campus, which also has one aspect as an academic town. The Sanwa / Nanso / Kamo area is located in the center of the Boso Peninsula and is a “healing” space surrounded by abundant nature such as the countryside, satoyama, and the Yoro River. There are many golf courses in the vast area, and it boasts the largest number of courses in the country in the municipalities. It is also used by many golfers in Tokyo and Yokohama. In the middle of the area, there is a stratum that shows the trace of the geomagnetic reversal about 770,000 years ago, which is designated as a national natural monument, and it seems that it is drawing attention from all over the world. The city is located within 50 km from the city center and almost in the center of Chiba prefecture. Blessed with a warm climate, agriculture is flourishing, and in addition to paddy rice, vegetables such as radishes and watermelons are cultivated, and fruit trees such as pears and figs are also cultivated. The city’s brand rice “Yoro no Megumi” is Koshihikari’s first-class rice. No chemical fertilizers are used and half of the pesticides are used. In addition, only rice that meets the criteria of “very delicious” on the taste meter is carefully selected. The less protein the rice has, the more delicious it is. Since protein is abundant in the surface layer of rice, the larger the grain of rice, the smaller the surface area ratio, the more delicious it is. We also sell “Special” Yoro no Megumi, which is a selection of larger grains. It is said that it can be purchased at A Corp Sakuradai, Green Top Chiharadai, Farming Center, Azunosato Ichihara, etc. With the Anesaki area as the main production area, the value of agricultural production is the ninth largest in the prefecture (2006). In order to achieve high-priced transactions in the market, we are working on joint shipment with unified cultivation methods. Autumn-winter radish (harvested from October to February) and spring radish (harvested from March to June) are designated production areas of the country, and almost all of the production areas are certified as eco-farmers; cultivated only with organic fertilizer. With the establishment of the Radish Washing and Sorting Facility in 2007, it has become possible to further improve the quality and increase the yield, and the market evaluation has increased, and it has become popular with consumers. The Anesaki area is a production center for watermelons and melons. “Anesaki watermelon” is a watermelon that is indispensable in the summer when it has a good reputation for its crispness. “Anesaki Melon”, which is made mainly by young successors, has a fine net and the scent of high-class melon, but is reasonably priced. Both watermelon and melon are well-shaped and taste good. It is a safe and secure agricultural product because it is cultivated by “honeybee mating” without hormone treatment. The optimum temperature for germination is 25 to 30 ° C, the optimum temperature for growth is around 25 ° C, and it tends to die when exposed to frost. A minimum temperature of 13 ° C or higher is required during the flowering period, and if the temperature is lower than this, pollen will not be produced easily and fruit set will be unstable. On the contrary, when the temperature is high after the flowering period and the sunny weather continues, honeybees tend to mediate and set fruit one after another even if humans do not mate. In Japan, prefectures and the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries cooperate to grasp the number of groups that can be supplied nationwide so that there is no shortage of bees for pollen mating, and if a shortage is expected, the supply and demand between horticultural farmers and beekeepers will be prompt. It seems that the system is being put in place so that adjustments can be made. You can buy delicious “Anesaki watermelon / melon” at the direct sales office in the city. When you think of Ichihara’s pear, you think of “Kosui”, but “Hosui” is also very popular. In Ichihara, Hosui boasts the second largest production volume after Kosui. The flesh is soft and juicy, has a moderate acidity, and has a texture and taste comparable to that of Kosui. Probably because the producers have long wanted to let many people know the deliciousness. You can buy delicious Ichihara’s Hosui at supermarkets and direct sales offices in the city. The fig is written as “No flower fruit”. However, it is not without flowers, just because they cannot be seen from the outside, they have small flowers inside the fruit. The figs in City are highly evaluated in the market as “Anesaki figs”. It has a moderate sweetness and a refreshing flavor, and can be enjoyed with jam, wine boiled, syrup boiled, etc. in addition to raw food. The way to distinguish delicious figs is that the cut ends are not dry, plump, taut and fragrant. When a crevice appears in the buttocks and the calyx is dyed reddish brown, it is ready to eat. You can buy delicious figs from the city at “Azu no Sato Ichihara” or at the direct sales office in the city. At that time, there were 6 communal kitchens in the city, and 41 elementary schools and 22 junior high schools provided about 22,200 meals. In order to utilize school lunch as a living teaching material, it is said that menus incorporating local products, event meals, local dishes, etc. are offered for lunch menus. Koshihikari rice harvested in the city is used for school lunch, and special radish harvested in Anesaki is used from autumn to early spring. Other ingredients such as pears, green onions, cabbage, sweet potatoes, trefoil, potatoes, small green onions, and melons are used. As long as the children are envious, parents will feel at ease. In addition, there are rare ingredients that are eaten locally, such as Kamo greens, which are produced only in the Kamo district of the city, and “Tozo（It is a preserved food peculiar to Ichihara and Chosei, which is made in the cold season from the end of the night to February, and is one of the nostalgic tastes of the region. Add koji, dried radish, boiled soybeans or natto; fermented soybeans to the broth that comes out when soybeans for miso are boiled, and eat as it is after 4 to 5 days, or eat it over warm rice.）,” which has been handed down from ancient times in Ichihara City and Chosei. It is said that “Kamona” began when the owner of an inn near Takataki Shrine（It sits on the shore of Lake Takataki, about 1 km northeast of Takataki Station on the Kominato Railway. In front of Lake Takataki, with Mt. Matsuo in the back. 御祭神: 迩々芸命 / 玉依姫命 / 別雷命. History: Sandai Jitsuroku (sixth of the six classical Japanese history texts)-On September 17, 868, it was enshrined in August of the second year of Hakuho, with the sixth rank of Kazusa Province and the fifth rank of Jinjoi Takataki. Since ancient times, the belief in bottomless bags has become unique to our company in praying for safe delivery and the safe growth of children. In 1591, Ieyasu Tokugawa donated a red stamped land of ten stones. In 1873, he was listed as a prefectural shrine in the same year, and is currently worshiping as a shrine of more than 2,200 households. The existing shrine was rebuilt in 1727.）received seeds from the people who stayed at the inn and sown them in the fields in front of the shrine during the Meiji and Taisho eras. It grows well in the local environment and has become a delicious vegetable suitable for pickles. Harvesting of natural yams cultivated around the Kamo area, which is close to the Yoro Valley, begins around the beginning of November. Since ancient times, it grows naturally in the mountains of Japan, is commonly used as a nutritional food and tonic food, and has been prized as a Chinese herbal medicine called “Sanyaku”. In the explanation of herbal medicines in Chinese medicine, it is classified into the same upper rank as medicated carrots, and it says, “It is non-toxic, nourishes life, does not harm the human body even if it is taken in large amounts or for a long time, and it is used for those who wish for immortality and longevity.” The nutritious natural yam can be purchased at the Takataki Farming Subcenter of the Agricultural Cooperative, Azu no Sato Ichihara, and the direct sales office in the city. “Anesaki Tenjinyama Ancient tomb” : The designated historic site date is April 9, 1968. There are more than 1,000 burial mounds in the city, but the large ones are concentrated in the Anesaki area and are called the Anesaki burial mounds. The Anesaki tumulus group is a group of tumuli built over about 300 years from the latter half of the 4th century to the latter half of the 7th century, and has the longest duration among the tumuli including the large anterior-posterior tumulus in Chiba prefecture. It is the largest anesaki burial mound in the Anesaki burial mound, with a total length of 130 m, a front width of 50 m, and a rear circle diameter of 67 m. The name comes from the fact that Sugawara Shrine is located on the mound. It used to be called Mt. Tenjin and was not recognized as an ancient burial mound, but it was introduced as a surrounding ruin during the excavation survey of the Futagozuka burial mound in 1947, and it is said that it is finally recognized as an ancient burial mound. No excavation survey has been conducted, but the width of the front part is narrow and the height is about 5 m lower than the rear part. The feature that the front part is thin and narrow is that it was built at an early stage in this group of burial mounds, and it is estimated to be around the latter half of the 4th century. It is the largest burial mound in the prefecture in the 4th century, indicating that the power in the lower reaches of the Yoro River occupies an important position. “Anesaki Miyayama Ruins” : A group of pottery excavated from your company’s No. 2 burial mound (Sutra mound) in the ruins. Anesaki Shrine（Mikoto Shinatobe, Yamato Takeru, Ame no Koyane no Mikoto, Sae no Mihasira, Mikoto Yachimata, Yachimata Hime no Mikoto, Kunado no Mikoto, Mikoto Osazaki, Emperor Nintoku: “Anesaki Shrine”, which is listed as “Kaijo District” in the “Enki-shiki” Shinto shrine encyclopedia edited in the early centuries, is considered to be the predecessor of the current Anesaki Shrine. At that time, the belief of the Kokushi seemed to be strong, and in 877, “Anesaki God” was appointed to the 5th rank along with “Shimana God”, and in 884, it was appointed to the 5th rank. It is described in “Sandai Jitsuroku (sixth of the six classical Japanese history texts. It has prospered since the Middle Ages, and Kamakura period Kawarake（Small unglazed plate）has been found in the Miyayama ruins. Known as an ancient government office, its relationship with Kokusai continues until the Muromachi period. Anesaki in the Northern and Southern Dynasties was called “Anesaki Ho” as a national territory, and a person named “Takeda Magogoro Nagataka” had the right to a part of the profit (land profit), and then Shinano. It is stated in the “Ogasawara Document” that it was transferred to the guardian Mr. Ogasawara and inherited from generation. )”.）is known as an ancient Shikinai shrine, but it seems that it was related to the Kamakura Shogunate in the Middle Ages. It is stated that Kenyu, a resident, was appointed as a god of “Tsurugaoka Hachimangu.” After that, from the description in “Kakuonji（Its predecessor was Okura Yakushido, which was built by Yoshitoki Hojo）Document” etc., it can be read that the national government was strongly related to the establishment of the company territory, and it is highly possible that the maintenance was carried out by the national government until the Muromachi period. In addition, since the name “Baba” remains in the southeastern part of the shrine, it maintained its authority and power to become the center of the Anesaki area even in the latter half of the Middle Ages. In 1985, the Ichihara City Cultural Property Center excavated and investigated 380 m2, and found three remains of excavated pillar buildings in the first half of the Middle Ages. Despite the narrow scope of the survey, a certain amount of Kawarake was excavated in the early Middle Ages, so it is assumed that the situation is similar to the Katamataki site and Kazusa Kokubunsoji temple. There are three small circular burial mounds in the precincts, which were used as mounds in the early modern period. From one of these, your company’s No. 2 burial mound, a wide-mouthed jar from Tokoname and a jar from Atsumi / Kataguchi-bachi were found in the collapsed part of the burial mound, and it is highly possible that it was a mound in the late Heian period.
The Anesaki area is a production center for watermelons and melons. “Anesaki Green” produced by JA Ichihara City Anesaki Association is a watermelon that is indispensable in the summer when it has a good reputation for its crispness. It is a large ball watermelon with a beautiful dark green skin and a good ball. Not only looks but also tastes good and genuine. Good shape and good taste. Since it is cultivated by “honey bee mating” without hormone treatment, it has a high reputation as a safe, secure and excellent agricultural product.
The fruit set rate in honeybee mating is somewhat unstable depending on the weather, but it is about the same as that in artificial mating, and although the fruit enlargement is slightly inferior, the sugar content is equal to or higher and practical. By using honeybees for watermelon mating, the mating work time can be reduced to 50% or less. When we introduced copulation using honeybees for the purpose of labor saving in watermelon tunnel cultivation, artificial mating (because the life of watermelon flowers is short, it must be done in the morning, and we are forced to take a cramped posture in a narrow place, and the grower Compared to hard labor both mentally and physically), the fruit set rate is about the same, and the fruit enlargement is slightly inferior, but the sugar content is high and the practicality seems to be high.
Ichihara’s watermelon, which is a staple of summer, also has a diuretic effect and has the effect of helping the kidneys work. Every year, from the end of June to July, it is lined up at retail stores and direct sales offices. Also, a small ball watermelon in the shape of a rugby ball seems to be popular.
