 | | Just as related by the Enoshima Engi, there was a vast, swampy lake, the edges of the lake were not heavily populated, there was a hill to the south of the lake, there was a relatively heavily populated valley in this hill, and there was a village named Tsumura in the valley. |
 | | Assuming that the identification and interpretation of the dragon in this study is correct, the Enoshima Engi says that the devastation caused by floods and flash floods increased in the fifth and sixth centuries AD, to the point that floodwaters entered villages, carrying away children and forcing the villagers to move to higher ground. |
 | | Go to Part 2: Translation of Segment 2 of the Enoshima Engi, which describes the emergence of Enoshima, the descent of the goddess amidst a spectacular display of terrestrial and aerial phenomena, and the subduing of the dragon by the goddess. |
