Mitologie Japoneza: Ninigi-no-Mikoto, descendentul divin

Do you know the exact place where the Heavenly Descendant the God Ninigi-no Mikoto descended at the order of the Godess of Sun Amaterasu Oomikami from Takamagahara Field ( Heavenly Hill Field ) in Heaven ? 
Ninigi-no Mikoto descended on top of the Holy Mt. Takachiho-no-Mine. If you can not believe such a fantastic story inspite of the holy and majestic look of the Holy Mountain, look at the three teethed spear " Ama-no-Sakahoko - Heavenly Upside Down Spear " staked on top of the Mt. Takachiho-no-mine. It is not a devil's pitchfork.

 By whom it was staked ?  Presumably by God Ninigi-no Mikoto ! There have been much speculation and opinion as to why the mysterious Heavenly Lance is staked upside down on the top of Mt.Takachiho-no-mine.

  This mysterious Heavenly Lance has been the cause of much speculation and opinion as to why it was staked upside down in the top of the mountain Takachiho-no-Mine.

  It is believed that the weapon staked upside down points at the route to go back to Heaven. Some people say, however, that it expresses the protest of the gods on Earth against the gods in Heaven. There is another fantastic opinion that god Ninigi-no-mikoto dropped the weapon down to see whether the the spot is safe or not to descend on. This opinion, however, disregards why the lance is staked upside down.

  This is a dangerous place to descend upon from Heaven. The Kirishima Mountain Range has 23 volcanoes, 15 craters and 10 caldera lakes.

  The lance " Amano Sakahoko " is rusted. It belongs to the gods and not human beings. The preservation treatment is up to the gods. It is not a cultural heritage of our human government.

  At the end of the Edo Period, on the second year of Keio, in 1866, Sakamoto Ryoma made the first honey moon trip in Japan to Satsuma. He climbed Mr.Takachiho-no-mine  with his wife Oryô and saw the Holy Hoko with his own eyes and touched it. He sent a humorous letter to his sister Otome writing about the details of the honey moon trip with some illustrations.

    The Japanese Mythology is not a science nor the verificable history. The ancient chronicles like " Kojiki " and " Nihon Shoki " are full of fantastic and mysterios stories. They are the best detective novels ever published in Japan.

    You can enjoy yorself wandering among the gods only by using imagination and symparhizing with poor and miserable gods and also glorious gods. Use your imagination and have your fantastic theories.
