| Yamashita Daiichi Cave is a semi-cave ruin. Because it was used as a grave it escaped destruction in postwar quarrying. The bones of an 8-year-old girl, subsequently called the Yamashita-dojin were excavated from here. It is one of the most significant finds within the whole of the East Asian region. In 1969 it was designated as a Cultural Property by Okinawa Prefecture. Photograph by Bughouse Ltd. |
