1.We observed festivals, rituals and performing arts as they were performed in actual context by participating in them and were able to make documentation by taking photographs and video films whenever permission could be obtained. 2.We requested that performances be held and documented dance drama, puppet theater and dances in order to obtain materials to be used for analysis of the performing style, or the actual text itself, of performing arts. 3.We learned how to play the drums from people who transmit the technique and collected data about onomatopoeia and the method of transmission by interviewing these people. From these fieldwork it became clear that there are two cultural styles in onomatopoeia of drums: Indian style, single note onomatopoeia type and Chinese style multi note onomatopoeia type. It also became clear that there are also two levels of cultural area: one which simply imitates the sound of drums, which may be called "simple onomatopoeia of drums," and one that systematizes this simple pattern, or which may be called "systematized onomatopoeia of drums." Both factors are not necessarily related to one another,
