		Standing 800m up in the hills above the Kiso valley, Magome means "horse basket", because this was where travellers on the Nakasendo were forced to leave their nags before tackling the mountainous stretch of road ahead.
		Magome is famous for its native son, Toson Shimazaki (1872-1943), an author whose historical novel, Yoake Mae (Before the Dawn), put the town on Japan's literary map.
		Magome's tourist information office (daily 8.30am-5pm; tel 0264/59-2336), opposite the Toson Kinenkan, has an English map of the area, and the staff (who probably won't speak English) can help with accommodation bookings at the village's numerous minshuku.

		Magome and Tsumago are within easy reach of Nagoya via Nakatsugawa or Nagiso by both car and public transport and there is a pleasant 2 to 2 and a half hour walk between the two historic, former post towns.
		Magome's main street is lined with wood and plaster Edo-style buildings, most of which date from the 20th century as the originals fell into disrepair or were burnt down in the frequent fires that affected both towns.
		Magome is also known for its most famous son, novelist Toson Shimazaki (1872-1943), whose works include Yoake Mae (Before The Dawn) and Ie (The Family), novels that chart the history of people in the Kiso region as the area's importance and wealth declined in the Meiji Period.

	South Africa may cull elephants. 14/03/2005. ABC News Online
		South Africa may cull elephants for the first time in a decade, a move animal welfare groups say is cruel and unacceptable but which may be needed to control a surging population.
		"We are strongly leaning towards culling and we want the public to digest this hard fact," Hector Magome, director of conservation services for South African National Parks, told Reuters in an interview.
		Since culling was halted under a moratorium when apartheid ended in 1994, the park's elephant population is estimated to have swelled to close to 12,000 from around 7,000.

	Randy's 'Favorite Getaways in Rural Japan' p 4
		Tsumago-Juku and Magome are well-preserved historical towns in the mountains of southern Nagano Prefecture, used for centuries by travelers on the Nakasendo route.
		In fact, Tsumago and Magome were only minor post towns, with the nearest major checkpoint on the route being at Kiso-Fukushima, to the north.
		Magome was also called Magome-Juku because it too was one of the post towns on the Nakasendo, although only a few hours walk from Tsumago.

	Vacation Information guide for Magome by Hostelbookers
		The traditional way of hiking the Kisoji is to go from Magome to Tsumago and experience how tough the initial climb up into the mountains is. Although the route is frequently signposted in English, it's a good idea to pick up a map from one of the tourist information offices before you start.
		If you choose to walk in the easier direction downhill to Magome, start at Nagiso Station on the Chuo line, from where Tsumago is an hour's walk south through picturesque fields and small villages.
		If you're staying at the youth hostel near Kiso-Fukushima and you want to walk the official route, it's still a good idea to alight at Nagiso and catch the bus to Magome, since this is cheaper than continuing on to Nakatsugawa and taking a bus from there.
