Tale 67 — The legend of Sadato's old camp site
In the mountains on the border between Tsuchibuchi village and Kuribashi village (formerly Hashino), two or three ri in from the climbing path, there was a broad plain, which was called by the place-name Sadato. The marsh there was said to be the place where Abe no Sadato cooled his horse, and also to be the remains of where he set up camp; it is a scenic spot that looks out over the east coast.
