In 2009, the excavation of a large building site at the Makimuku ruins in Sakurai City, Nara Prefecture, caused a sensation in newspapers and on television. Meanwhile, research is deepening in the Kyushu region, which boasts the Yoshinogari ruins and holds a firm position as a candidate site for Yamataikoku. Where is Yamataikoku?
