In Hyono district located at the base of Mount Enotake, there is a tomb estimated to be Ninigi-no-mikoto\u2019s, marked by Imperial Household Agency. It is an ancient burial mound formerly called Tsune-duka. In 1801, Naito clan\u2019s 4th domain lord Masatsugu NAITO made its estimate of an ancient emperor Ninigi-no-mikoto\u2019s tomb. In 1885, it became one of \u201cLegendary spots of Emperor tombs\u201d and in 1926, it was renamed as \u201cReference spots of Emperor tombs\u201d. Locally the origin of the place name Hyono is said that \u201cHyo-no\u201d (a fire-birth-field) shifted, where an ancient Konohana-sakuya-hime gave birth in the fire.<\/p>\n

Gyojyuji Temple near Kawai shrine was formerly called Kawai-ji Temple. When Japanese ancient Emperor the 10th Suijin and 11th Suinin enshrined Ninigi-no-mikoto\u2019s tomb, Imperial envoys (Emperor\u2019s messengers) stayed at the temple as a temporary accommodation, a legend says.<\/p>\n

Also, near the top of Mount Enotake, there are remains of gigantic stones called \u201cHoko-iwa\u201d and \u201cSanbon-iwa.\u201d The article \u201cKawai shrine\u201d in \u201cHistorical Research of Miyazaki prefecture\u201d says \u201cAfter Ninigi-no-mikoto\u2019s passing away, his body was buried close to the top of Enotake Mountain. This is Hoko-iwa. Later in Suijin era, shrine pavilions were built there. But the approach was too difficult to climb up, so the pavilions were built again on a level place, where people could visit and offer prayers. This is the origin of the shrine.\u201d<\/p>\n
