JHOMONSUGI is a maximum level Yaku Japan cedar that grows naturally
in YAKUSHIMA.
It is famous as Furuki who represents the Yaku Japan cedar. It takes
about round trip 8?10 hour to see JHOMONSUGI on foot. It cannot enter
surroundings of the tree because of protection now, and the view from
the observatory.
The origin of JHOMONSUGI
It was discovered by the person who was the sightseeing section chief
of the Yaku town office in 1966 and it was introduced widely.
At first, the discovery is called Ooiwasgi.
The origin of the JHOMONSUGI name looks like the Jomon earthenware by
forming the theory that the age of a tree that had been presumed at
that time came from alive in the age of Jomon in 4000 years or more
and the trunk that undulates freely and has To.
The possibility that was the union tree in which about three young
trees fused and the Furuki environment was wrapped with the
investigation afterwards surfaced, and the age of a tree was judged
about 2700 in the age determination in the part of a young outside
tree though the age of a tree was estimated to be 7000 years or more
from an annual ring measurement of surroundings of the tree and the
size etc. of Mikishuu at first and it became a topic.
However, JHOMONSUGI has been proven to be not the union tree but one
tree since Department of Agriculture at Kagoshima University analyzes
Parokishidarze of JHOMONSUGI in the isozyme. Moreover, signs of the
fallen dawn tree update have been discovered by the investigation.
Moreover, even if a large-scale plant in the southern part of Kyushu
islands including YAKUSHIMA is thought to be annihilation by the
product shop pyroclastic flow that extended from the demon boundary
caldera about 7300 years ago, and the age of a tree of JHOMONSUGI is
old, assuming not going back seems to be an established theory by 4000
years or more.
On the other hand, large-scale of monkey etc. that do not have record
that was brought in at posterity
The entire YAKUSHIMA was not swallowed from the in existence of the
animal to pyroclastic flow but a part of flora and fauna also has the
opinion that assumed whether to have survived.
There is not the one to deny the theory of 7200 the age of a tree by 1
00%, and either the big tree to feel the romance in the age to be
deep though there are various opinions about the age of a tree.
It is named, the branch that broke by the weight of the snowfall in 20
05 is "Tree of the life", and is being exhibited in a Yaku Japan
cedar natural pavilion now. The magnificence of JHOMONSUGI can be
felt even here.
