The Takachihogo-Shiibayama Site (hereinafter referred to as "the Site") is a steep mountainous site enclosed by the peaks of the Kyushu-Sanchi, ranging from 1,000 to 1,700 meters in elevation. Mentioned in ancient Japanese chronicles such as the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki, myths and traditions are cherished even today. In this tough, forest-enclosed environment where flat land is extremely sparse, the people have established a distinctive and sustainable composite system of agriculture and forestry in the mountainous Site through a combination of labor and ingenuity.
