CRAIG SKINNER ANNUAL POSTER AWARD
2023 IAOS CRAIG SKINNER POSTER AWARD: The poster award at the International Obsidian Conference (IOC), Engura, Japan, goes to Yoshifumi Matsumura - Use of Obsidian Resources for Education and Tourism in Shirataki Geopark, Japan.
Mr. Matsumura serves as the Section Chief in the Geopark Promotion Division within the General Affairs Department of Engaru Town. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in History from the Faculty of Letters, Kokugakuin University, Japan. In 2023, he authored "Utilization of Shirataki Site Group: Efforts and Issues of Shirataki Geopark" in "Archaeology Quarterly (Kikan Kokogaku)" (Supplement 42, Pages 28-30, in Japanese). His specialization is in Palaeolithic Obsidian Site Utilization and Lithic Tool Production, and he is dedicated to building sustainable communities through responsible obsidian resource use. His efforts include curating exhibitions at the Center for Archaeological and Cultural Properties, offering hands-on stone tool-making experiences, and organizing tours of obsidian production sites to promote education and tourism.
