Once upon a time, this area was where paddy fields and wetlands spread out.、A water god, Benten-sama, was enshrined in a place with such a deep relationship with water.。This is called "Oki Benten"、The following legends are left。
"Old times、It seems that a large oak tree, a sacred tree, was overgrown by Benten-sama.。A big wind blows at one time、This oak tree fell down and blocked the road。The villagers will consult、It was unavoidable to cut this oak tree。But that night、I heard something like a human voice from the direction of Benten-sama、The villagers say they were very suspicious。
Next morning、When a villager goes to Benten-sama's place、The oak tree that should have collapsed、I'm getting up and growing again。People said, "This must have been returned by Benten-sama.。Surprised、It seems that this Benten-sama came to be called "Kiki's Benten".。From the Yachiyo City Board of Education website
