Although the cylindrical objects have been known about for some time, they had previously been interpreted as “cultic” phallic symbols.

The research was published in the open access journal Plos One.

The journal reports that the artefacts are almost 8,000 years old. . . . Read Complete Report

On the building’s floor information board on the ground floor, the tenants for the three floors are listed as the Hanshin Expressway. . . . Read Complete Report W/ lots of cool photos
