The surface of d\u014dtaku has dense horizontal lines that form a unique texture called &#8220;flowing water design,&#8221; which is iconic in the Yayoi period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There&#8217;s no doubt that the creator of this d\u014dtaku spent a great amount of time and effort on carving the surface to create those horizontal lines and patterns. Despite the intricate details on the d\u014dtaku, the d\u014dtaku itself has an intriguing structural design as well. The ears of the bell extend only a bit and are embedded on a flat edge that circles the bell, which generates a sense of unity and harmony. There is one larger hole on the upper part, so this bell can be hanged on ropes and hooks, while there are two smaller holes on each face of the bell that might serve a similar purpose. Personally, I like this d\u014dtaku very much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artsandculture.google.com\/asset\/d%C5%8Dtaku-ritual-bell-with-flowing-water-design-unknown\/gAEQ7_xqJv3cIQ\">https:\/\/artsandculture.google.com\/asset\/d%C5%8Dtaku-ritual-bell-with-flowing-water-design-unknown\/gAEQ7_xqJv3cIQ<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Details Title:&nbsp;D\u014dtaku (Ritual Bell) with Flowing Water Design Creator:&nbsp;Unknown Date:&nbsp;B.C. 1th Century Type:&nbsp;bronze External Link:&nbsp;http:\/\/syuweb.kyohaku.go.jp\/ibmuseum_public\/index.php?app=shiryo&amp;mode=detail&amp;list_id=445017&amp;data_id=6495 This bronze ritual bell, d\u014dtaku,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[3],"class_list":["post-787","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-image","tag-japan","wpcat-18-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/787","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=787"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/787\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":795,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/787\/revisions\/795"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=787"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=787"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=787"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
