Chin'ichib?, a nun who taught male and female disciples and lived in her own temple, is therefore considered ananomaly. In Tracing the Itinerant Path, Caitilin Griffiths' meticulous research and translations suggests that Chin'ichib? is in fact an example of her time's learned female who was active in the teaching and spread of Buddhism - and not an exception.
