- Summary
- "During the late twelfth to fourteenth centuries, several precursors of Shinto came together for the first time. By focusing on Mt. Miwa in present-day Nara Prefecture and examining the worship of indigenous deities (kami) that emerged in its proximity, this serves as a case study of the key stages of "assemblage" through which this formative process took shape."--
