Abstract
We present a summary of optical/NIR deep surveys for very high-z galaxies using the 8.2 m Subaru Telescope operated by National Astronomical Observatory of Japan. The prime focus mosaic CCD camera, Suprime-Cam, with a very wide field of view, 34′× 27′, allows us to carry out efficient optical deep surveys. In particular, the Subaru Deep Field project has provided us a number of Lymanα emitters beyond z=6. We discuss the star formation history in the early universe based on this project.
