Izumo-taisha is one of the most ancient and important shrines of Shinto, a Japanese primitive religion. Although even today's its appearance is spectacle enough to attract many sightseers, the most interesting issue about it would be its ancient main structure that has been lost about a thousand years ago.
The image bellow is an imaginary drawing of it. According to a plan written in those days, its height amounted to 48 meters. It was so high that many historians had been skeptical about its existence. In 1989, however, Obayashi Corporation, a major construction company, succeeded in proving its existence.
They organized a project team, and had them perform researches and simulations of its construction process. The result of those studies proved that the construction of it was possible for people with ancient technology.
The result showed nothing but a mere theoretical possibility of its existence at that point. However, when three huge columns were dug up from the site of Izumo-Taisha, lore and hypothesis about the high-rise structure was proved to be truth.
The high-rise structure, however, has provoked wide-ranging experts to advocate many hypotheses about its process of construction. There even are people who argue it was built by ancient space travelers from outer space.

As in the case of pyramids, its hugeness has been arousing people's imagination ranging from the plausible to the absurd. It also might be one of the fingerprints of the Gods. It would be a theme that attracts most of the people who living in modern society.
