Tale 25 — The origin of laying down one side of the kadomatsu
The ancestors of the Daido era arrived in this region at the end of the year, and before they had put up more than one side of the kadomatsu, it became New Year's Day. For that reason, to this day, as a good omen, these households leave one side of the kadomatsu lying on the ground while stretching the shimenawa across it.
