/The Tombstone
of Ouji
This tombstone lies in the bamboo grove behind Tokuda Moritsune's
house in Bungozako. From long ago, there is a place called,
"Oujisaka". This place is the hill that lies north of Tokuda's
neighborhood toward Bungozako.
Ouji is the center of all roads. To the east is Kobayashi
and Takarabe; to the west is Haruyama and Matsunaga; to the
south is Irito and Shigehisa. Before the Meiji era, there
was a teahouse for travelers at Ouji.
Ishihokora and Ishimuro is called Ouji. Also, there is a monument
called Syouhou. Syouhou is thought to be a monument for the
dead.
This Ishimuro is called "Zuishinzou". Long ago there was a
shrine placed in this area. It is thought that the shrine
stood either in front or next to Ishimuro. |
