Ko-Shintō

Animistic religion of Jōmon-period Japan

Ko-Shintō (古神道) refers to the animistic religion of Jōmon period Japan, which is the alleged basis of modern Shinto. The search for traces of Koshintō began with the "Restoration Shinto" in the Edo period, which goal was to remove any foreign ideas and worldviews from Shinto. Some movements which claim to have discovered this primeval way of thought are Oomoto, Izumo-taishakyo.
