| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, focusing on the creation and succession of the shinto shrines based on the oral history in the northern part of the Amami archipelago (Kasari, Tatsugo and Nase), I investigated the role of local religious culture in acceptance of the shinto shrines. Specifically, through the shinto shrine inspections, questionnaires and collection of historical archives, I clarified that the local folk cultures such as shamanism of Yuta, Noro ritual and ancestral worship play important role in the local acceptance of the shinto shrines.
