Giant cedar trees
Yakushima is one of the most famous islands in Japan, where you can find giant cedar trees named "Yakusugi".
They are estimated to keep living for more than two thousand years. Therefore, the largest one "Jomonsugi" is named after the Jomon period in Japanese ancient history.
However, no one knows whether it is definitely largest one in this island or not. It's just because the forest is too deep and large to explore.
Some people believe the rumors about existence of unknown giant cedar trees.
Last weekend, I watched the TV program about finding them for these four years. It's really exciting to me.
Explorers find dozens of giant trees which can deserve to be called "Yakusugi", and some of them are not to be outdone by "Jomonsugi".
(Let me know a better phrase than "not to be outdone by" if you have some idea!)
It make me feel somewhat awe and respect that they keep living where no one knows for an enormous amount of time.
I think that such a feeling for nature is basis of Japanese religion and myth.

Therefore, the largest one "Jomonsugi" is named after the Jomon period in Japanese ancient history.
"Therefore" sounds slightly off because it is not so clear what is implying the name "Jomonsugi". Is that period over 2000 years ago? Adding that to this sentence would make it sound better. Alternately, you could replace "therefore" with an explanation like "Because it was probably born in the Jomon period, the largest one is named 'Jomonsugi'"...
However, no one knows whether it is definitively the largest one in this island or not.
"definitely" is ok, "definitively" is a stronger choice

your original sentence sounds like you watched the program for four years!
It's really exciting to me.
Explorers find dozens of giant trees which can deserve to be called "Yakusugi", and some of them are not to be outdone byput "Jomonsugi" to shame! (OR: ... but none of them can put "Jomonsugi". to shame")
I'm not sure whether the new trees are bigger or smaller than Jomonsugi. Other phrases like "not to be outdone" could be "show up", "outclass", "tower over"...
It makes me feel somewhat awe and respect that they keep living where no one knows for an enormous amount of time.
"It makes me feel" -> "I am full of awe and respect that ..." possibly.
Feedback
Good post! I will have to do some research about these trees!

Thank you for your feedback. My mistake is so funny!! I would lose my sight and mind if I've watched a TV program for four years without any rest.
