This study focused on the cultural landscape of a traditional craft, Oodate Magewappa. The craft has been produced by hand in particular areas and so can be considered to have formed its own cultural landscape. Elements constituting the cultural landscape were classified into two types: ‘the activity landscape’ which refers to dynamic scenes of people actively working, and ‘the place landscape’ meaning the place itself where activities are happening. The study aimed to identify activities and places of the entire making process of the craft, and to survey historical changes of them. Analyses revealed that the cultural landscape of Oodate Magewappa consisted of 22 scenes of the activity landscape and 18 places of the place landscape. Activities such as raising and logging Akita cedars and manufacturing crafts remain while most of the rest have changed. Some activities have been made visible to the public in recent years with an increasing recognition of the traditional craft’s roles in tourism industry and education, and it stimulates further recognition of the cultural landscape. Also, places where activities used to happen remain, having possibilities to raise recognition of the dynamic scenes that existed before. These results suggest it is important for the preservation of cultural landscape to reconstruct the connection between the activity landscape and the place landscape.
