Izumitsu

… [Matsubara Hiroshi]
[history]
Located on the south bank of the Kizu River, in ancient times timber transported to Nara was transported from Ujitsu to Ogura Pond, up the Kizu River, and unloaded at Kizu. In ancient times, the Kizu River was called Izumi River, and Kizu was called Izumitsu or Izumikizu, and temples in Nara, including Todaiji Temple, established wooden houses here. On the north bank, Gyoki built Senkyoji Temple and a bridge, but the Sandai Jitsuroku records that the rapid current of the river made the bridge easily destroyed, and floods made the area impassable.
