:''for the commune of Niger see Tamaya, Niger'' A is an altar used in Shinto-style ancestor worship, dedicated in the memory of deceased forebears. It generally has a mirror symbolizing the spirits of the deceased or a tablet bearing their names and is used not only to enshrine blood relatives, but also to honor respected non-family members. Since Buddhist funeral rites dominate in Japanese religious practise, ''tamaya'' are found less often in Japanese houses than their Buddhist counterpart, the ''butsudan''. Their value are also below that of the more highly respected ''kamidana''. ==Ritual== The ''tamaya'' is placed in an inner chamber, on a shelf, the ''mitama-san-no-tana,'' attached to the wall about six feet high. It is placed lower than the ''kamidana''.〔 Rites are performed for the ''tamaya'' every tenth day up to the fiftieth, and thereafter on the one-hundredth day and one-year anniversary. The one-year ritual is followed by another which marks the spirit's joining of the ancestors at the family shrine. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tamaya」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
