Outline of Final Research Achievements

The results show that Moidon tends to disappear, reduce or be moved in recent 50 years for some kind of development such as agricultural field improvement and the relation to local residents such as the festival and cleaning tends to decrease. Annual events and management of Moidon has been simplified, and it becomes difficult to manage Moidon by Kado-unit. It is suggested that the traditional place for ritual such as Moidon, Kamiyama, and Utaki has a function as natural ecological infrastructure in the region, but management of them has been difficult with urban spread and changes in lifestyles. It is necessary to regenerate them as the standpoint of the community.
