1. Setsumatsushaand massha, also called eda-miya (collectively known as setsumatsusha) are small or miniature shrines having a deep historical relationship with a more important shrine or with the kami it enshrines, and fall under that shrine's jurisdiction. The two terms used to have legally different meanings, but are today synonyms. Setsumatsusha can lie either inside or outside the main shrine's premises. Setsumatsusha are usually 1x1 ken in size.
