For this purpose we had field work studies in Aizu area,Fukushima Pref.,the Wakasa area,Fukui Pref.,and Tokushima Pref.,which have different geographical and cultural backgrounds. In 1989 we focused our study on Tokushima, having additional fieldwork in Aizu and Wakasa.The summary of reaearch results is as follows.
In Tokushima we investigated (a)Shiloku-henro(the 88-sacred-place pilgrimage),(b)the Kobodaishi belief,(c)the present situation of Hashikuraji Temple in Ikeda-cho,(d)the possesion of inugami and raccoon dog spirits,and(e)the function of religious facilities "ujido".
