This study presents an interpretation of the symbolic meaning expressed in a specific type of pottery decoration from the Katsusaka culture (ca. 3,300--2,900 BCE) in the Chubu Highlands of Japan, whose central feature is a human face on the rim. To overcome the verification issues found in interpreting ancient symbols of material culture from prehistory, this study integrates the method of comparative structural analysis with cultural and historical perspectives. The study first extracts the structure and core motifs appearing in the decoration of the pottery, and presents working interpretations of the meanings of the structure of the number three, i.e., one unit in the center and a pair of units divided on either side. The extracted structure and motifs are then compared with those of the ritual motifs of the Mishakuji cult, considered to have been established in Suwa, Nagano prefecture, ca. 5th century. In order to verify the comparison between cultural elements separated by such a vast temporal gap, the continuity of the structure and core motifs in the region are examined. Through analysis and comparison, the study concludes that the structure of the number three symbolizes a worldview concerning the creation of life, and that this idea was one of the core beliefs of the Katsusaka culture.
