What was this museum depicting? I guess is was the mans life?

The man's name is Minakata Kumagusu. He was a very famous Dr. Slime Mold, a philosopher, a local historian, a folklorist, and a multi-talented person who spoke ten languages. He was born in our town. The first specimen I showed him was the "snake monster" he got. The monster's name is Uga. When fishermen catch Uga in the sea, they cut off its tail and enshrine it on the boat. Legend has it that the fisherman will get a big catch, and Uga is said to be the messenger of the gods. *Actually, it is a beautiful sea snake tail that is parasitized by barnacles and shaped like a flower.😃
