Talk:Mitamaya

Untitled
Much of the article is taken from the German one. As my knowledge of German is minimal, of Shintoism is negligible, and machine translation is terrible, can someone who knows a bit more of the first two help?

Name
Is Tamaya capitalised? Yodaat 04:41, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Is this it?
"In Kyushu as well as in a few other places, they build a small hut on the burial lot, and call it tamaya (soul-hut). This seems to be a survival of the moya (mourning hut) referred to in the ancient literature. In Tsushima and some other isolated islands, they used to build mourning-huts near the grave and the bereaved families were supposed to remain there until the expiration of their mourning periods." from.

Disambiguation?
From https://www.w3.org/Amaya/User/FAQ.html#1.9 "What does the word "Amaya" mean?

The initial name of our editor/browser was Tamaya. A tamaya is a tree that is represented on the logo. We chose that name because we had such a tree in our office and we though that, with some imagination, it could style both the image of the Net and the structure of a Web page. Unfortunately we were not allowed to continue to use the name Tamaya, as it was trade marked and used by a French company. So we decided to drop the first letter (T) and our editor/browser is now named Amaya."
