Suhama すはま / 州浜 a word with many meanings

Suhama is the South Pond shore which consists of a pebbled beach created from stones nearly identical in size and shape (flat and oval stones).
The flat pebble is called “Isshouseki” because it is said that each pebble was exchanged with one sho (about 1.8 litres) rice.

When I looked up the word "Suhama" in the dictionary, it said the following:

Suhama is a place where the beach is intruded. It is the beach that entered the bay of water. The beach where shoal goes in and out.
Shimadai's ornaments that follows the shape of Suhama (where the beach is intruded). Mt. Hōrai, trees, stones, flowers and birds, etc. with occasional scenery. Use as a decoration for feasts. Also known as Suhamadai.

Suhama is an abbreviation for Suhamagata.

Suhama is an abbreviation Suhama-Onigawara(gargoyle)

Suhama is one of the crests. A general term for various designs that look down on the beach from above.

Suhama is the name of the saddle of a horse, which is a dent under the front and rear wheels.

Suhama is Sao mono sweets (Japanese sweets in the form of long blocks) made from starch syrup, Kinako(soybean flour), white sugar, etc. and wrapped in bamboo skin. It was invented by Shōjuken of Kyoto during the Koan era (1278-1288). The cross section is associated with Suhamagata.
Also known as Suhama-ame (candy) or Mame-ame.

Suhama that I think of is a curve drawn by a garden road that turns to the left from around Suhama, Amanohashidate, which is one of the symbolic scenery of Katsura Imperial Villa. The skill of using curves is a major feature of Japanese gardens.
