Yomi is the Japanese hell, and Jomon is an ancient (BC) period in Japanese history. I don't know about Shinuyama, but Shinoyama is a Japanese name.
well, Shinu in Japanese means death, and Yama means mountain, so it could be Death Mountain or Mountain of Death. of course it could be something else too, cause well, quite a few Japanese words are written the same(at least in Hiragana, different Kanji of course) and with different meanings, and others have a different spelling(in Hiragana) but will remain the same in English, so it's really hard to translate it...
