The political centre of seventh-century Japan was Asuka. Asuka is presentlylocated in Asuka-mura Takaichi-gun Nara Prefecture. Within the narrow confi nes of this region, temples were constructed as well as a series of imperial palaces, the newreplacing the old. There was also an installation, known as the "mystery stone structure" sekizo−butus 石造物, the purpose of which remains unclear. For the time, however, an extremely advanced culture fl ourished. Immigrants from the Chinese mainland and the Korean Peninsula brought with them new scholarship, arts and techniques, and Asuka was truly a stage for cultural exchange and cultural negotiation. Here, ideologies and perspectives from each region in Asia confronted differing ideologies and perspectives to fuse and rival with others.
