Aniai machi阿仁合村
gingitsune 銀狐 the Silver Fox
Once upon a time
a rich merchant from Osaka found a silver fox in his garden, but when he woke up from this dream, his wife had turned into a silver fox. So the wife-fox left her husband, but he came after her, travelling around in Japan. One day his wife-fox appeared again and told him, if he climbed up this mountain he would find precious metal.
This is the beginning of the Ani doozan 阿仁銅山 bronze mines in Ani .
Ani, itself, was the result of a merge between Aniai Town and Oani Village in 1965.
The area had thriving gold, silver, copper, and coal mining industries in the 19th and early 20th centuries, but in 1970 the last of these mines closed and as a result, much of the town's economy has disappeared. (wikipedia)
