背山面海，是冲绳理想的风水村景观。这样的位置非常适合半农半渔生产。风水村何时、如何形成，对历史学家来说仍然是一个神话。这里保存有风水大师从 1857 年至 1888 年期间对稻岭及其近邻 Makija 村庄进行风水村考察的唯一完整记录。通过这些文献，我们可以粗略地了解近代早期琉球的风水布局。本研究旨在以风水日记和残留的巨大福木树为基础，阐明冲绳风水村庄景观的聚落和发展过程。这些风水日记中都强调了植树造林。御塔基斯是当地的圣地，通常覆盖着茂密的森林，是村庄风水的首要关注点。风水地点，即对整个村庄风水有重要意义的地点或区域，需要种植茂密的森林。房屋周围、海岸线甚至河流沿岸植树，有效保护了村屋和稻田免受强风的侵袭。所有残留的树龄超过 200 年的巨型福木树均在村庄中心穆拉纳哈 (Muranaha) 发现，这里也是稻岭村庄最古老的部分。何戈村约有14棵大树，其中13棵位于海岸线上。 Ho：go是冲绳特有的风水词，字面意思是拥抱保护。 Ho: go 也用来指围绕房屋、村庄或海岸线的森林带。据推测，Ho:go 可能是 1737 年至 1750 年左右冲绳中央政府推荐的。 Inamine 发现的最大的树估计已有 298 年左右的树龄。从残存的树木来看，稻岭的许多房屋可能早在300年前就已经存在了。 1751年左右，中央政府可能将其视为一个行政村落，并种植了“Ho:go”村。最古老的房屋首先建在市中心，随着人口的增加，后来扩展到周边地区。
High mountains in back and facing the sea is an ideal Feng Shui village landscape in Okinawa. Such a location is perfect for semi-agricultural and semi-fishing production.When and how a Feng Shui village came into being is still a myth to the historians. The only complete records of Feng Shui village inspections of Inamine and its close neighbor, Makija hamlets, by Feng Shui masters from 1857 to 1888 exist there. These items of literature allow us to have a rough look at Feng Shui layout in then early-modern Ryukyu. On basis of Feng Shui diaries and remnant huge Fukugi trees, this study aims to clarify the settlement and the development process of Feng Shui village landscape in Okinawa.Tree planting has been highlighted in these Feng Shui diaries. Utakis, the local sacred places usually covered with lush forests, are the primary concern of village Feng Shui. Dense forests were required to be planted on the Feng Shui sites, a spot or an area of significance to the whole village Feng Shui. Tree planting around the houses, along the coastline, and even along rivers has effectively protected the village houses and paddy fields from strong winds. All remnant huge Fukugi trees older than 200 years were found in Muranaha, the hamlet center and also the oldest part of Inamine hamlet. About 14 big trees were standing in village Ho: go, among which 13 were on the coastline. Ho: go is a particular Feng Shui word in Okinawa, literally means embraced protection. Ho: go is also used to refer to forest belts that surround a house, a village or coastline. It is assumed that Ho: go might have been recommended by the central government around 1737-1750 in Okinawa. The biggest tree found in Inamine is estimated to be around 298 years old. From the remnant trees, a number of houses in Inamine might have existed early to 300 years ago. It might have been considered as an administrative hamlet by the central government around 1751, with the planting of village Ho: go. The oldest houses were first built in the center and, with the population increase, later spread to the surrounding areas.
