Bamboo groove at Gojozaka Slope

Bamboo groove at Gojozaka Slope

A rickshaw driver in a happi coat sits on his rickshaw posing for the camera. Bamboo fencing made of bamboo grass tied to bamboo poles prevents the bamboo from encroaching upon the path. The path is narrow and rickshaws can barely pass each other. Taken prior to 1909, when the slope was expanded to a width of 7.2 meters.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number88‐8‐0]

                This may be a shitekago because the straw curtain seems to be rolled up. This kind of palanquin was made simply of four bamboo poles and braided bamboo sticks with straw curtain attached. The palanquin bearers had no set uniforms but carried ikizue (breath sticks) to regulate breathing. ==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number88‐47‐0]
