the sea bathing of the lower part of body in the day of the ox in midsummer Explanation: これは日本全土、ことに南島から瀬戸内海沿岸地方に広く行なわれていた「浜降り」「浜遊び」に 属する民俗慣行である。詳述は避けるが、高砂にはこの他「土用の丑の尻つけ」など民俗学上興味深 い行事も行なわれていた。一つだけ引用しておこう。 土用の丑は尻をつけに行かんと尻がくさるいうて、必ず家内中で夜でも浜へ行きました。 (河村 はるえ、七六歳) http://homepage3.nifty.com/eternal-life/irihamakodomo.htm |
