This is a study to make clear the meaning of Mima-na through the relationship between the legend Mwa-yama and the Emperor Mima-ki. In Japanese myth, the 8th Japanese Emperor Sujin is called the Emperor Mima-ki. And he is considered the first Emperor in Japan. Until now the reason why the 8th Emperor had been called the first Emperor and the origin of the name Mima-na was puzzling in Japanese mythology and history. Especially the interpretation about Mima-na has made many troubles between Japanese and Korean historical societies. In Japanese myth, ancient Korean Kaya lands are called Mima-na. But there are few records in Korean literature. The meaning of Mima-na is not clear even now. In ancient Korea Big-Kaja which was situated in south east Korea was called Mioyama(=now Koryong). So Mima must be the reduction of name Mioyama. In Japanese myth Nihon-Shoki the son of the Emperor Sujin (=Mima-ki) called Big-Kaya Mima-na. And it was found that the Japanese first land in Miwa was found by foreign power. Many old big mounds in the Miwa region appeared suddenly. These facts prove that a big foreign power came to the Miwa region and founded a nation. There are many traditions about the god Oomononushi, who has powerful relations with Emperor Mima-ki. The most famous tradition about the god Oomononushi is called the legend Miwa-yama. It relates the marriage of the god Oomononushi and a virgin in the Miwa region. The god Oomononushi was the god of Miwa mountain. This god visited a virgin at night and return to the mountain in the morning. But there are many common marriage traditions in Japan. The god came from a far distance. In fact the god Oomononushi came from across the sea in far more distance and came to stay on the Miwa mountain. So we can consider that the Emperor Mima-ki came from Mima-na in ancient Korea and made a nation in Japan. He based in the Miwa region and conquered west Japan through the religion of Shamanism which was based on the marriage of god and virgin.
