摘　　要：The Japanese“Ama Divers”are a group of women who have been fishing for seafood in the traditional way and have existed along the coastline for centuries.With their backs to the sky,they search for marine resources in an extremely primitive way,demonstrating the bravery and simplicity of the women.The article explores the origins,current situation,and culture of the“Ama Divers”.After a long period of training and honing,the“Ama Divers”dive deep into the seabed without fear of hardship.This ancient professional culture is not only a part of Japanese history,but also an exploration of the balance between human civilisation and the natural environment.By exploring the“Ama Divers”and their culture,it is possible to gain a deeper understanding of the significance of the existence of this culture.
