| Abstract | This article analyzes the history of Buddhist practice by priests of the Ise Shrines, traditionally presented as the paradigmatic site of an indigenous religion untouched by Buddhism. It challenges mo...dern claims of an exclusive tradition with archeological evidence for the Buddhist aspirations of Ise’s sacerdotal lineages and the material record of the objects and individuals responsible for the construction of Ise as a Buddhist site. By focusing on the material objects and ritual acts created by collaborative networks of institutional groups that have been conventionally assumed to be rivals, the article argues that the ritual practices and material culture produced by and for the priestly lineages of the Ise Shrines established a sustaining relationship between the gods and the buddhas and lay the necessary substructure for later Buddhist developments at the Ise Shrines.show more |
