皇室のルーツ（Roots of the imperial family）

世界最大級の墳墓で、宮内庁が仁徳天皇陵に指定する堺市の大山古墳（５世紀中ごろ）で８日、仁徳天皇の命日祭「正辰祭」が営まれた。皇室が祖先を慰霊する私的祭祀の一つ。全国の天皇陵や陵墓参考地など約６００カ所でそれぞれ年に一度行われているが、国民の目に触れる機会はほとんどなかった。宮内庁は今回、共同通信にメディアとして初めて正辰祭の取材や撮影を許可した。　堺市などが大山古墳を含む「百舌鳥・古市古墳群」の世界文化遺産登録を目指し、同庁に天皇陵の情報公開を望む声が高まる中、陵墓での祭祀の実態を知る貴重な機会として注目されそうだ。祭祀の実態を通じて皇室の様々な姿がみえてくると面白いですね。皇室のルーツ（日本民族のルーツ）が具体的に明らかにされるのはいつになるんでしょうかね。
