1 A lintel characteristic of gates called *kabukimon 冠木門. The lintel penetrates the gate posts and is secured by wedges called hanasen 鼻栓, lit., nose peg or plug. They are wedge-shaped pegs inserted through the lintel at right angles to the posts. Sometimes the lintel is set into notches cut into the gate posts and secured from beneath by a tenon and mortise, *hozo ほぞ, *hozo-ana ほぞ穴, and to a smaller, horizontal lintel called *magusa まぐさ. This lintel does not extend out beyond the posts.
2 A horizontal timber placed above the entrance of a dwelling in the Kansai 関西 district. The beam is not connected to the entrance posts but instead is supported by the posts *houdate 方立 on either side. Examples: Sumiya Shimabara 角屋島原, 17c-19c. Kyoto; Yoshimura dwelling, Yoshimura 吉村 house, early 17c.
