Hi TranTanHung

OK, thanks

Hi Hung Tran Tan... I think Yvonne is correct in regard to the multi-tiered building being a pagoda. Does it have a central pillar extending through its roof (if so, this has ritual significance which identifies a pagoda)? Commemorative towers also would not likely be placed in the floor of a volcano. Many towers, whether memorials or not, were used in early China as border stations for communicating breaches in defense-- e.g. one tower would be near enough to another to see a signal fire or signal smoke. Still, they were very remote & so recalling these towers suggests a natural place.

Other towers such as a "bell tower" are part of temple complexes, but less likely to be shown remotely. They often have a stone platform & steps surmounted by an open-air memorial bell under a roof. A famous Japanese mountain suiseki Engakuji is named for the Zen temple complex on a mountainside in Kamakura where smoke-sweetened-by-incense rises in billows. The billowing smoke rising from the mountain is seen in the contour of the famous suiseki as a twisting stone column. Even today, smoke billows from a memorial below Engaku temple's bell tower. Locking an image into the moment of "smoke rising" strengthens the nexus of a real instant, whether imagined as warming smoke or incense prayers reaching toward heaven. Engakuji is a rare mountain suiseki in displaying smoke, but a visit to the temple complex is incomplete without the experience of being engulfed by smoke while appreciating a bell honoring Mongolian & Japanese war dead.

Yvonne's hut stone had a crooked, rising protuberance that reminded me of the smoke billowing from Engakuji mountain suiseki. I doubt it was intended as a "horn" or "chimney" but as an allusion to "smoke rising" in a fashion similar to the famed stone. Perhaps, for Yvonne's stone, the smoke rising suggests the more seasonal allusion of cool weather heating.

It is the owner's/host's choice to find & project the meaning of a display including accessories, and a viewer's/guest's choice to find meaning. If the owner & viewer (host & guest) feel a similar atmosphere, the expression is significantly elevated.

Does Vietnam (or another culture) have memorial towers built within the cauldron of volcanos? I'd like to learn more.

Dear Hung Tran Tan... Please respond to the messages (I have left two) in your Mailbox on IBC-- your Personal Messages should be highlighted on the menu bar at the top of this page (it is the second menu from the far right end). Your assistance is needed re' a Vietnamese stone question outside of IBC Forum threads. I'll delete this message (since it doesn't add to the thread) after you respond.

Thanks! I apologize to members for this interruption.

Hi Chris

Thanks for the information about the pagoda ....about the chimney ( or what you think it looks like) on my hutstone, you will have to ask mother nature.

Kind regards Yvonne

Hello Yvonne , Mr. Chris and Lý my friend ,
All You are already have good arguments : You could not have constructed TOWER ( or PAGODA ) at the mouth or below a VOLCANO .
In this Lanscape- Stone ...
I' m interesting when I put a TOWER below the LAKE . The VOLCANO ... the day today , it has frequented the PASS...
Many thanks for IDEAS sharing of Yvonne , Mr. Chris and my friend Lý .
Best Regards ,
Hưng Trần Tấn .
