SUMMARY:Kofun Mania
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nSome history buffs in Japan are obsessed with ancient tombs called kofun\, built from the third to the fifth centuries.

Some cute and novel kofun-themed goods and food items will also be discussed. \nAbout the Speaker\nLaura Miller is the Ei’ichi Shibusawa-Seigo Arai Endowed Professor of Japanese Studies at the University of Missouri-St. Louis where she teaches courses on Japanese visual and material culture\, ancient history\, food culture\, and yōkai.
