From ancient times, Iseshima has enjoyed the fortune of a particularly rich quantity of seafood. The area is considered to be Miketsukuni, which were regions responsible for supplying food for the Imperial Court. The Man yoshu, an 8th century anthology of Japanese poetry, contains a waka composed by Otomo-noYakamochi that portrays the fishermen of Shima leaving the coast aboard small boats. Wooden plates, on which abalone, sea cucumbers, and seaweed were inscribed, were excavated from the Heijokyu historical sites (Nara Prefecture) where the capital was located in the 8th century. This finding corroborates Shima Province s (now Toba and Shima Cities and some of the surrounding areas) history of offering seafood to the Imperial Court. In the Edo period when the Okage Mairi (p.25) was thriving, the number of teahouses serving tea and rice cakes increased along the Sangu-kaido to Ise Jingu to offer visitors walking long ways a place to eat and rest. At that time, sweets were valuable, and sweet mochi was both a luxury and a handy source of energy for travelers, with the ability to make people feel full. Sangu-kaido was also referred to as the mochi highway because a number of teahouses were lined up along the road. In Iseshima, many types of specialty mochi have been handed down over the years, offering a sense of hospitality to visitors to the shrine. A number of traditional crafts made in Iseshima are produced as souvenirs for visitors and there are many specialty products that take advantage of the mild climate. 広く海に面し 海の幸に恵まれた三重県の中でも とくに豊富 歩く旅人の空腹や疲れをいやすため 伊勢神宮に続いていた な種類の海産物がとれる伊勢志摩は 古くより朝廷に食物を 参宮街道沿いに お茶と餅が出される茶店が増えた 甘味が とされていた 献上する 御食つ国 貴重だった当時 甘い餅は贅沢な食物であり 腹持ちがよい 御食つ国 志摩の海女なら 万葉集には 大伴家持が詠んだ ため旅人にとって手軽なエネルギー補給源でもあった し真熊野の 小舟に乗りて 沖へ漕ぐ見ゆ という歌がある 参宮街道は 多くの茶店が並んだことから 餅街道 とも呼ば 8世紀に都が置かれた平城宮跡 奈良県 からは 鮑 なまこ れ 伊勢志摩には 参拝客をもてなしてきた名物餅の数々が 海藻等が記された木簡が出土し 志摩国 現在の鳥羽市 志摩 受け継がれている 市と一部周辺 から 朝廷に海産物を納めていた歴史が裏付 また 伊勢志摩で作られる伝統工芸品は 参拝客の土産品とし けられている て生産されていたものが数々あり 温暖な気候風土を生かし おかげ参り p.25 が盛んだった江戸時代には 長い道のりを た特産品も多い 赤福 A rice cake confection topped with sweet red bean paste.
