These guardian statues are commonly seen on rooftops or flanking the gates of homes, temples, and villages throughout Okinawa Prefecture and other parts of Japan. The concept of Shisa is thought to have originated from the ancient Orient's lion symbolism, with influences from Chinese guardian lions (Shishi) and similar to other protective statues like the Sphinx and Japanese Komainu.\n\nOrigin and Name: The name \$
