Legends and myths about trees
Legendary tree deities (13)
Kodama – Tree spirits in Japan
Kodama are spirits in Japanese folklore that inhabit trees ,or the tree itself, or the soul of the tree.
They can take on a variety of forms, including old trees, monstrous fires, beasts and humanoid figures.
It is said that if you try to cut down a tree inhabited by a tree spirit, you will be cursed.
The phenomenon known as yamabiko, when sounds make a delayed echoing effect in mountains and valleys, is sometimes attributed to this kind of spirit and may also be referred to as “kodama”.
Since ancient times, their existence was reported from the Kojiki (Records of Ancient Matters) as ‘Ko-Tama’, and in some areas they are still the object of tree spirit worship.
It is quite interesting to find that legends from ancient times in Japan have much in common with the lore of the Greek mythology of the Dryads (Ref) and the Echo (Ref2).

木にまつわる伝説・神話
伝説の樹木の神々 (13)
日本の木霊
木霊 (こだま) とは、日本の民話に登場する、樹木に宿る精霊、またはその宿った樹木自体、樹木の魂のことである。
その姿は、古木、怪火、獣、人型と様々であり、人に恋をし人型になって会いに行ったという伝承もある。
木霊の宿る木を切り倒そうとすると、祟られるとも言われている。
山や谷で音が反射して遅れて聞こえる現象である山彦 (やまびこ) は、この精霊のしわざであるともされ、その響く音をさす場合もある。
古くは古事記から「古多万」としてその存在が伝えられており、今でも樹霊信仰の対象となっている地域もある。
日本古来の伝説が、ギリシャ神話のドリュアデス(参照)やエコー(参照2)の伝承と共通する部分が多いのは、なかなか興味深い。
