Votive Plaque with Image of Kannon, 1100-1185. A gilt repouss? image of the bodhisattva Kannon is fixed to a bronze disk with tiny nails. Kakebotoke (literally "hanging Buddhist deities") like this appeared from the latter part of the Heian period. They often hung on the doors of a Shinto shrine hall to indicate the Buddhist manifestation of the god, or kami, inside, or along the eaves of a Buddhist temple hall to indicate the Buddhist deity celebrated there.
