Yamatai-koku Amagi-Asakura Doctrine
Have you ever heard of the Amagi-Asakura historical theory, one of theories debated by scholars and intellectuals? This theory asserts that the legendary country of Yamataikoku was in Kyushu,not Kansai.
One interesting piece of evidence offered in is support of this theory is the strange correspondence of place-names between this region and the Nara-Yamato region in Kansai.
It is also interesting that many of the relics and ancient tombs of the fabled Yamataikoku are located in the Amagi-Asakura region.
The Amagi-Asakura region is fascinating to visitors who want to explore the world of ancient history.
