e/Tokin

Information
has gloss	eng: A Tokin is a small black box worn on the foreheads of Yamabushi - practitioners of Shugendō - or Tengu, dangerous yet protective spirits of the mountains and forests from the Japanese mythology. It is not only worn as a head decoration, but also used as a drinking cup. It is similar in appearance to tefillin worn by Orthodox Jews. It is theorized that they may be of common origin (see reference articles in History of the Jews in Japan); however the Tokin may simply be an evolution and miniaturization of a full-sized hat of the same name worn earlier in the Kamakura period.
