Well of Ama

Thanks する Ceremony の one つ

Original Text

The area around the Izu Peninsula was not only sandy beaches but also rocky coasts, and fishing was popular in good fishing grounds. Many women work as amago, and they also brought a lot of harvest such as abalone and turban shells. In Nishiizu, it seems that there were many Amakusa picking, but I think it was one of the rituals to cleanse the body before and after diving into the sea, protect yourself from the sea, wish for seafood, and thank the harvest. I try not to peek into it, but the well is dangerous, so you need to be careful not to touch the interest standard ...

It's near the coast of Koganezaki Park.

Original Text

There is a promenade around the cape in Koganezaki Park, but after looking around from Fujimi Hill to Kogane Shrine, a quarry, and a couple camellia, there was a sea woman's well near the coast. It seems that it is not currently used, and a net was covered with the well. Ama prayed for the safety of the sea and cleaned herself with fresh water from this well, and when she went up to land, she covered the fresh water from the well and thanked her for her safety on the day.
