This feature, called the Sekihi Iwa, or protection wall, is also located close to the Tachigami-iwa. It is a huge, regularly shaped, rectangular block with a length of more than 10m. On it there is a trace of characters engraved in it. On the bottom some 40-50 cm from the block runs a straight line of some 70 holes extending towards the Ishibutai (the Stage). More about these holes on the next page.
