Kinhira-kouki tells us on an opening of business ritual at the house of the chief officer of
kebiisi (in
Kebiisichou-hajimeki, written by Saionji Kinhira in 1287) and a record of Shokunmon-In on the giving birth (
Shoukunmon-In Osanguki, in 1303).
The Buddhist rituals called
Godanho is the ritual of the delivery, and it was taken place at the
Samurai-rou corridor in
Imadegawadono. The opening business ritual of the police
Kebiishi was also held at the same location. In 1303, when the place for
Godanho was prepared at the corridor, a wall dividing the north and the south had been constructed there and it made it difficult to extend the ritual space sufficiently as before. This wall was not depicted in the
Godanho Sashizu drawn in 1265, therefore it tells us that the dividing wall in the
Samurai-rou corridor of
Imadegawadono was built between 1265 and 1303.
This paper considers the reason for the establishment of the dividing wall, as well as linking it to an analysis on the examples of aristocrats
Shinden-zukuri residences utilized as the office of police,
Kebiishi.
