Geography
============
Kameoka abuts Kyoto to the east and is located to the north of Osaka. It is on the border line between former Tanba and Yamashiro providences. Together with Nantan city, the region is known as Southern Tanba, Kuchitan or Nanatan. For centuries, Kameoka served as a key transportation point to connect San'in region and Tanba providence with Kyoto. Today, the city serves as one of the fastest growing suburbs of Metro Kyoto, and Metro Osaka.
Kameoka is notable as the launch point for Hozugawa Kudari, a boat ride down the Hozu River. It is also the location of Anaoji Temple, one of the 21 temples in western Japan authorized to issue amulets in the name of the Boddhisattva Kannon.
上賀茂神社 Kamigamo-Shrine, Kyoto, Japan
We visited the Kamigamo-Shrine on Oct 21, 2011 as a part of the course on Introduction to Japanese Religion which is provided for the Institute for the Liberal Arts (ILA), Doshisha University.
Kamigamo-Shrine (Kamo-wake-ikazuchi-Jinja) in the Kita Ward of Kyoto is the oldest Shinto shrine in the ancient city. Since prehistoric times Kamigamo-jinja has preserved and transmitted the legends relating to the birth of the shrine deity, Wakeikazuchi.
Ancient rituals which transmit faith in the divine mountan, Kamo Sai also known as Aoi Matsuri which started during the reign of Emperor Kinmei in 544, and the shrine buildings retaining the style of the early Heian Period, all convey the history of the province of Yamashiro (southern Kyoto Prefecture).
Most of the shrine complex (totaling 690,000m2) has been designated as Preservation Area of Historic Landscape by the municipal government and as a Historic Site by the national government. The area contains many large trees such as ichii oaks, suda chinquappins and weeping cherry trees.
Here, nature and cultural properties coexist in harmony. On December 17, 1994, Kamigamo-jinja was officially registered as a World Cultural Heritages Site in recognition of its importance as a monument of ancient Kyoto.
Kyoto, The capital of Japan, called Heiankyo, was established in 794. Kamo-wake-ikazuchi-Jinja, Kamo Mioyajinja, Toji Temple, Kiyomizu Temple and Enryakuji Temple first appeared in the new capital during this time.
Kyoto is known worldwide as a treasure house of cultural properties, including National Treasures, Special Historical Sites and Special Places of Scenic Beauty which represent each period of the city's 1200-year history from its establishment at the beginning of the Heian Period. Infact, Kyoto possesses the largest concentration of cultural properties in Japan.

**********************************************
This event is conducted every year in the Kamigamo Jinja in Kyoto.
Karasu means crow and according to the explanation at the shrine, the grandfather of the god venerated at this place took the form of a giant crow with three legs when descended over the land. After, its descendents were called Karasu-zoku.
The two sand piles are a representation of the Sacred Mountains where according to the legend the god of the temple descended. These are called Tate-zuna
Sumo is the traditional grappling/martial art we all know. In the past, Sumo matches had a religious meaning and even nowadays in events like this, having the pure children doing sumo is seen as a way to purify or to pray for good things and repel bad things or disasters.
