This project aims to create a documentation network centre in the Asian-Pacific region that preserves, shares, disseminates, and distributes various historical materials such as oral records, and hieroglyphic and other symbolic cultural references, including non-literary and non-biblical materials. At the same time, the Centre will pursue cross-disciplinary area-transcultural research and studies to investigate the processes of establishment and the changes observed in the area and its cultures.
