Dogu
Dogū, meaning "earthen figure," are small clay figurines produced during the later Jōmon period (c. 1000-400 ВСЕ). Common in the Tohoku region of northern Honshu, these figures are often characterised by large, bisected "snow goggle" shaped eyes, intricate cord markings, and deeply incised patterns that may depict clothing or tattoos. Their unusual, sometimes otherworldly or "alien like" appearances particularly the oversized eyes and stylised forms have intrigued scholars and enthusiasts alike. Many figurines emphasise female features such as breasts and hips, suggesting a role as fertility symbols or in ritual practices, reflecting the spiritual and cultural life of prehistoric Japan.
