About 'Kagura' in Shiiba Village
In Shiiba Village, kagura has been handed down in 26 districts, each of which has evolved in its own way, and was regarded as a major discovery in the history of folk culture during the Showa period, when it was being re-evaluated. Every year from mid-November to December, a 'night kagura' is held in which all the local people come together to perform kagura throughout the night.
