Clay objects that are similar to the clay figurines that appeared in the middle of the early Jomon period in the Kanto region. They are thought to be either clay figurines or triangular clay tablets. They were excavated from the same area as the fire-flame style pottery and are thought to be from the same time period. They have been seen as motifs on pottery.
