| The rounded-off top of a pillar. In the daibutsu style *daibutsuyou ε§l, pillars show a long, gentle, convex curve along the main body. Gradually the pillars narrow at the upper part and are given an almost imperceptible rotund finish. Example: Joudoji *Joudodou ςyςy° (1194) Hyougo prefecture. In the Zen style *zenshuuyou T@l generally, both top and bottom of pillars are abruptly narrowed and then rounded off. Although the term, chimaki, is immediately associated with either the Zen or daibutsu styles, it was used in the Nara period to describe the top of a pillar that had a rounded chamfer cut on the top. This ancient type of chamfered rounding can be found on the pillars at Toushoudaiji *Kondou ΅ρΰ° (8c) Nara, and slightly on the tops of pillars at Byoudouin *Hououdou Chuudou ½@P°° (1053) Kyoto. | ||||||
