Wanting to share some more information.
12:00 -12:50大川原町【地蔵堂】
六地蔵石塔、天文12年(1543)付けの銘文ある。市内現存最も古い地蔵である。地元の信仰が強い。管理人が毎月1日・20日掃除、通夜祀るという。 地蔵堂内保存している渡来仏金銅菩薩立像(高さ13.5cm、幅最大5.7cm)と半伽楊柳観音(高さ18cm)を調査。
 金銅菩薩立像背面の銘文:
 宋景平三年(425)正月十日
 張法敬造佛像一區
 夫妻普為四恩地道 →「地道」は「六道」か
 法界衆生但昇妙果 
とあり、年代に疑問があり、追刻の可能性がある。
半伽楊柳観音像の年代も古い。宋元時代の観音像を略写した観がある。(『平戸市史 民俗編』)
*三行目の「地道」は、メモを何度みても「地道」であります。あるいは小生の誤記かもしれませんが、仏教用語で「六道」と同義であれば、「ママ」で宜しいのでしょうか。[米谷均]
*大川原地蔵堂如来像の銘文の「地道」か「六道」の件、一見「地」に見えますが、実際は「六」だと思います。ご参考に添付の写真ファイル確認してください。「四恩」と「六道」は対句になっています
