Kibettō Jinja shrine
Kibettō Jinja shrine submitted by Aska : Site in Kyūshū Japan "Yama-no Ishi" with a standing stone on the right, "Umi-no Ishi" dolmen on the left (Vote or comment on this photo)
Burial Chamber (Dolmen) in Kyūshū

In the precinct of Kibettō Jinja shrine, large and small stones lie and stand. Among them, two huge stones are called "Umi-no Ishi (Stone from the Sea)" and "Yama-no Ishi (Stone from the Mountain)", he former seems to be a capstone of a dolmen.

The strange atmosphere of the stone-crowded shrine looks like the stones of Sanmyō Jinja shrine in Ōita prefecture and Maruyama Hachiman Jinja shrine in Tokushima prefecture.
