Mita Shikoku Machi 三田四国町 "Shikoku Town" in Mita
港区 Minato 芝2-5丁目 Shiba second to fifth sub-district
The estates of the Daimyo from the four domaines of Shikoku island,
阿波 Awa, 土佐 Tosa, 讃岐 Sanuki and 伊予 Io,
had been here in Mita 二丁目 second sub-district and 三田同朋町 Mita Dobo-Cho.
On the East side of the main road was the Naka-Yashiki of the Daimyo of the Awa Tokushima domain and this part was called Awa Yokocho 阿波横丁 Awa Alley.
Another theory of the name relates to
the estates of the four government officials of 四ヶ国 the four districts
因幡 Inaba, 阿波 Awa, 薩摩 Satsuma and 三河 Mikawa.
or
the estates of the four government officials of 四ヶ国 the four districts
鹿児島 Kagoshima, 徳島 Tokushima, 挙母 Koromo (Aichi) and 因州新田 Inshu Nitta.
In 1872, the area was called 三田四国町, but the name was abolished in 1964.
(In 1947, the area of 三田 Mita had become 芝 Shiba.)

. Legends and Tales from Japan 伝説 - Introduction .
In 1890, the family M. (father, son and daughter) had moved to 芝区三田四国町二番町 and lived a pleasant life.
But around the 10th day of the 10th month strange things begun to happen.
The tobacco tray and the hibachi brazier begun to move all by themselves or seemed to be drawn up to the ceiling.
Even in the kitchen things came to life, like the rice container, the mortar, the kettle and the tea cups.
At another occasion, when the family had gone to bed, there were grains of rice and ash falling from the ceiling. This went on for a few days and the young children became quite afraid. So the father decided to go to the bottom of this and put a sharp knife near his pillow . . . but even this knife begun to fly around in the bedroom.
The spook continued, now even the sound of a flute was heard from below the stairs and the paper sliding doors begun to swing in rhythm with it.
The worried father went to the nearby 高輪警察 police station at Takanawa.
They told him to get an exorcist and with proper rituals the spook calmed down and nothing happened any further.
