Shinto origins of sumo
text:
The Shinto origins of sumo can easily be traced back through the centuries and many current sumo rituals are directly handed down from Shinto rituals. The Shinto religion has historically been used as a means to express Japanese nationalism and ethnic identity, especially prior to the end of World War II. In its association with Shinto, sumo has also been seen as a bulwark of Japanese tradition. Sumo can be traced back to ancient Shinto rituals to ensure a bountiful harvest and honor the spirits
