Sculptured Stone in Kyūshū
In Kokawa-Enokida commune, there are 2 small shrines sheltering several stone deities. 2 books on the cultural heritages in Arie-town contain the photos of a saruishi in Enokida commune in typical shape with massive body and a small head. But such statue in definitive shape cannot be found in both shrine. Maybe one of a pair stones in the smaller shrine with small white body and glued head of another black stone is the broken fragment of the statue.
