In order to consider the intention of Kyokai and the meaning of the lore of Hitokotonushi depicted in Ryoikil (Vol. 1, episode 28), the present paper examines the lore of Hitokotonushi appearing in a variety of Jodai literary works. In Kojiki, the power of Hitokotonushi was strong so that even the emperor could not ignore it, while it is portrayed as a nearly equal relationship with the emperor in the Nihonshoki. In Shokunihonki and Shakunihonki, Hitokotonushi is described merely as a God obeying to orders by the emperor. We claim that such a change in the description of Hitokotonushi may have reflected the fall of the Kamo clan of the Yamato regime. Ennoozunu, who fought with Hitokotonushi in Ryoiki, was from the Kamo clan but was the shaman who gained a high reputation for the acquired foreign incantation. In other words, the story of Ryoiki can be interpreted as change in the belief internal to the Kamo clan, who could not help but accept the fall of Hitokotonushi, their ancestor god. We claim that, through Ryoiki (Vol. 1, episode 28), Kyokai described the process whereby the areas of worship with Hitokotonushi turned into the world of the Buddhism through the depiction of Ennoozunu, enlightening people with the god‐worship in terms of the Buddhism.
