Etymology[edit]
Compound of 神楽 (kagura, “divine entertainment”) + 鈴 (suzu, “bell”).[1][2][3]
Pronunciation[edit]
Noun[edit]
神楽鈴 • (kagura suzu)
- a three-tiered set of bells suspended by coiled brass wires on a hand-held rod used in the kagura dances by miko.
- The inspiration for the shape of the bells is thought to have been the fruits of the ogatama tree (小賀玉の木, 黄心樹, 招霊の木, オガタマノキ (ogatama no ki): Magnolia compressa).
