How did the "East-West faith," which considers east and west to be sacred, and the "erecting pillars" rituals that connect heaven and earth originate and how have they been passed down? From the Makimuku ruins, the clay figure "Jomon Venus," the Onbashira Festival of Suwa Taisha Shrine, the high-rise shrine of Izumo Taisha Shrine, and the sun at the summer and winter solstices in Ise, this groundbreaking study explores their roots and touches upon the close relationship between the lifestyle culture "Shinto" and rice cultivation that they produced.
