It was said that God was in the Mt. Miwa from the ancient times. Therefore, people believed in God of the Mt. Miwa eagerly. In the ancient history books, a lot of myths about God of the Mt. Miwa are put on record. Around the mountain, a large quantity of the remains which people used for religious service was found. About the religious service in the Mt. Miwa, the precedent study explained it as follows. From the fourth century through the fifth century, people worshiped sun god in the Mt. Miwa, and the great king performed the Kunimi courtesy. From the late fifth century,religious service was stopped. From the midsixthcentury, the people worshiped curse God.Therefore I inspected a common view. As a result, I pointed out that there is not the trace of religious service of the sun god and the Kunimicourtesy. Rather when I refer to the generation of remains, the religious service begins in the fourth century, becomes popular from the late fifth century through the early sixth century, and declined in the late sixth century.In addition, God of the Mt. Miwa had plural properties. I classified them in (1) God of theforest, (2) God of thunder and the snake, (3) Curse God, (4) God who marries human beings,(5) God of the light, (6) National God. And I pointed it out that God of the Mt. Miwa had multilayer characteristics since religious service began. We must study it based on this in future.
