The village is surrounded with exceptionally rich forests, on which villagers depend for a large part of their daily diet besides rice, the staple. Villagers' cooking methods and tastes are well adapted to the natural materials available around the village. The availability is influenced by seasonal factors as well as the micro-level changes of natural conditions. What food materials are taken is also affected by villagers' own schedules. They choose daily food materials from among what are available and from the viewpoint of diet diversification. Hunting-gathering activities are basically for the next meal. Villagers know what food materials are available and plan hunting or gathering based on past experience. These features are generated through villagers' daily interactions with nature. The core idea is that they want to live their lives following the conditions of nature. This idea underlies the rhythm of the villagers' daily life.
