In the grounds of Ankan Shrine, there is a monument (1m high, 1.4m wide) commonly believed to be "Jindai Moji" (Chinese characters), with an intaglio carving on its surface that is difficult to distinguish as either a picture or a character. It seems to resemble the mysterious symbols of the super ancient history of the "Hotsumatsutae" (Hotsumatsutae), which was handed down to Mio Shrine (currently Yasuda Shrine, a sub-shrine of Tanaka Shrine) in the former Sanjo Village (currently Tanaka Baba District, Azumigawa Town), and the mysterious history of the town invites us into the romance of the past.
