A classic of modern travel writing, An Area of Darkness is Nobel Laureate V. S. Naipaul’s profound reckoning with his ancestral homeland and an extraordinarily perceptive chronicle of his first encounter with India. Traveling from the bureaucratic morass of Bombay to the ethereal beauty of Kashmir, from a sacred ice cave in the Himalayas to an abandoned temple near Madras, Naipaul encounters a dizzying cross-section of humanity: browbeaten government workers and imperious servants, a suavely self-serving holy man, and a deluded American religious seeker.

大分県西北の内陸、日田市には、渓谷沿いに湧く天ヶ瀬温泉があるが、その南側の高原に、五馬市（いつまいち）という土地がある。ここは、豊後国風土記に、土蜘蛛・五馬媛（いつまひめ）がいたと記される地である。五馬市の玉来神社（たまらいじんじゃ）は、景行天皇とその五馬媛を祭神としている。土蜘蛛とは、記紀や風土記において、天皇、朝廷に従わず、その多くが討たれたとされる辺境の民であり、神社の祭神とされているのはここが唯一の例と思われる。ただし、全ての土蜘蛛が朝廷に従わず討たれたと書かれる訳ではなく、例外もある。五馬媛も、特に朝廷との関係は書かれていない。景行天皇は、日本書紀や風土記に九州の土蜘蛛を数多く討った事績があるが、五馬媛との関係は特に記されていない。にも関わらず、玉来神社では並んで祭神とされている。また、同じ五馬市の元宮神社は、五馬媛のものとされる古墳の上に立っている。さらに、近くにある宇土古墳群には、女性首長を葬った古墳も存在している。古文書、伝承、考古資料の全てが、古、ここに卑弥呼のような女性首長がいた事を示している。はるか太古の、シャーマニズムと母権社会の記憶を伝えて来た、五馬市。それから千数百年、父権社会の崩壊局面にある今、それらの意義や遷移について、根底から再考する。
