[Diving operations and equipment]
In ancient documents, divers are referred to as "kazukime," and diving is called kazuku in the Shima Peninsula, Tokushima Prefecture, and Izu, sumu in Oita Prefecture, and moguru in many other areas. They are generally broadly divided into funaama (also called funado or honama), who row out in a boat as a married couple, and kachido (also called dakiama), who bring a bucket or tampo (a shallow bucket-shaped float with a fishing net hung underneath) and swim or walk along the reefs on the coast to the fishing grounds. The use of weights to speed up the sinking speed and improve efficiency is a relatively recent development, and a simple example is known from Kuzaki in Shima, where a rope was passed through a hole drilled in a rock.

*Some of the terminology explanations that mention "Kachido" are listed below.
