Koroku - Koroku

Japanese: 胡禄∥胡籙 - ころく
Koroku - Koroku
A type of container for carrying arrows. In the Todaiji Temple Donations Book, yuki and yanaghi are listed side by side to distinguish between them. Applying this to relics, quiver-type containers are called tsutsumi and quiver-type containers are called yanaguhi, a term used only in Japan. In China, yanaguhi refers to quiver-type containers such as those found on the statue of Qiu Xinggong in the Liuzhun Stone Statues of the Zhaoling Mausoleum (636) in Xi'an and the stone soldier statues excavated from the tomb of Yang Sixu (740). If we follow the conventional wisdom and call yanaguhi containers yanaguhi, then relics from the Nara period are of the shape of a wooden or bamboo slat, 33-45 cm long, and there are two types: a narrow one about 12 cm wide and a wide one up to 30 cm wide.

Japanese:
矢をいれて携帯する容器の一種。《東大寺献物帳》には靫(ゆき)と胡禄(やなぐひ)とを並記して区別している。これを遺品にあてはめて,矢筒式の容器を靱とし,矢立式の容器を胡禄と説明するのは,日本だけに通用する用語法である。中国で胡籙といえば,西安の昭陵六駿石像(636)中の丘行恭像や楊思勗(ようしきよく)墓(740)出土の兵士石俑に見るような,矢筒式のものである。慣用にしたがって矢立式の容器を胡禄とすると,奈良時代の遺品は,木板製あるいは葛藤(つづらふじ)製の状差形で,長さ33~45cmあり,幅が12cm余の狭いものと,30cmに達する広いものとの2種がある。
