Etymology[]
Yakata (館?) - Yakata is a Japanese word describing a "a roofed structure on a boat, shaped like a house", "a house-shaped structure on a cart, such as a caravan", "a temporary house, a temporary shelter" or "a mansion, a manor house, an estate". However, Yakata can also be short for 屋形船 (yakata-bun?) "a houseboat".[1]
Yori (要理?) - Yori comes from Yo (要?) meaning "important", combined with Ri (理?) meaning "theory". So Yori might mean "important theory". However, the word may also mean "principle".
