KEY WORD :@architecture / buildings & structures | ||||||
@ | ||||||
A simple structure that was usually erected in the center of a market place to house the deity *Ebisu bδ{, the first of the seven gods of good fortune *shichifukujin ΅_. He is dressed in kimono ¨, a divided skirt, hakama Ρ, holds a fishing rod in his right hand, and a sea bream, a good luck symbol, under his left arm. Although Ebisu is mainly associated with fishing, farming and commerce , by extension he was revered as the guardian deity of the home and market place, especially between 1350-1450, when *nou \ drama was reaching its full development. Two groups of wandering players, sarugaku y, and dengaku cy performed in market places dedicating their presentations to the enshrined god Ebisu. Because a rough class of people patronized the market place, ebisdou were eventually relegated to the outskirts of a villages where, by the 17c and following, they fell into ruin. | ||||||
