:''For the spirit house used by the Dakelh (Carrier) people of British Columbia, see Spirit house (Dakelh). A spirit house ((ビルマ語:နတ်စင်) or ), san phra phum ((タイ語:ศาลพระภูมิ), Khmer ''rean tevoda'', "place for the tevoda-spirit", or ''pteah phum'', "house for the spirit of the land") is a shrine to the protective spirit of a place that is found in the Southeast Asian countries of Burma, Cambodia, Laos, and Thailand. Most houses and businesses have a spirit house placed in an auspicious spot, most often in a corner of the property. The location may be chosen after consultation with a Brahmin priest. The spirit house is normally in the form of a miniature house or temple, and is mounted on a pillar or on a dais. The house is intended to provide a shelter for spirits that could cause problems for the people if not appeased. The shrines often include images of people and animals. Votive offerings are left at the house to propitiate the spirits. More elaborate installations include an altar for this purpose. ==Gallery== File:Nat-ein.jpg|A nat sin in downtown Yangon, Burma Image:Geisterhaus BMW Bangkok.JPG|Spirit house, Bangkok File:Spirit houses.JPG|Spirit houses at a private house, Phetchaburi, Thailand File:Spirit houses..JPG|Spirit houses protect a business, Thailand File:Spirit house at Hua Hin.jpg|Spirit house, Hua Hin 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Spirit house」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
