Research Abstract |
It used to be considered that "sengu"(a reconstruction ceremony) of the Kamo-wakeikazuchi Shrine during the Edo period had been held when the buildings were destroyed. However, while "sengu" were held at irregular basis during the Edo period, the truth is the shrine desired to hold "sengu" in approximately every 20 years. The reasons are two-fold ; because "sengu" was regarded as a religious ceremony, and because it served as a mean to preserve the special skills and knowledge of the ceremony. However, Tokugawa Shogunate did not approve such requests because of its financial problem. As a result, "sengu" were held only at irregular basis. Nevertheless, the Kamo-wakeikazuchi Shrine made numerous efforts to hold "sengu" more regularly. For example, by allying with with Kamo-mioya Shrine, its sister shrine, and conducting "sengu" at the same time, the Kamo-wakeikazuchi Shrine tried to appeal the heritage and good lineage of the Kamo shrines.
