Japanese mythology From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Japanese mythology is an extremely complex system of beliefs. The Shinto pantheon alone boasts a collection of more than 8000 kami Japanese for " gods " or " spirits "). Despite the influence of the ancient Chinese civilization , much of Japanese mythology and religion is uniquely their own. It embraces Shinto and Buddhist traditions as well as agricultural-based folk beliefs . Moreover, unlike Greek Nordic and Egyptian mythology , it is relatively difficult to distinguish what is truly "myth" to the Japanese. This article will discuss only the typical elements present in Occidental mythology such as cosmogony , important deities and the most well-known Japanese stories. Mainstream Japanese myths, as generally recognized today, are based on the Kojiki Nihonshoki and some complementary books. The Kojiki or "Record of Ancient Things" is the oldest recognized book of myths, legends, and history of Japan. The Shintoshu explains origins of Japanese deities from a Buddhist perspective while the Hotsuma Tsutae records a substantially different version of mythology.
