カムイルオマ

Proponent: 榊原正文

This coast was known as a hard passage: walking along the shore was next to impossible and the road went inland by way of the hot spring now called Asahi-onsen. On this reading the name was given to a wall of cliff no human could pass, on the view that only the kamuy travel there, and the referent is taken to be the Yūnai River. The source gives no division of the name.

• kamuy god

At the point of Cape Kasupeno an intrusive dyke runs out through the reef as a natural walkway, level enough to walk along and looking man-made until it is examined. At high water the sea would cover the rock on either side and leave the path. The author takes this to be the road the name is for, a landmark that can be seen on the spot. The same structure occurs at the Makitsumi-iwa of Benkei just behind, and again at Yūnai-zaki.
