2) there are things that can go up and down on it
3) you can find it in a very common book
4) it goes through a village, or many villages (whatever "village" means)
5) it has a connection with the sea (whatever "sea" means)
6) it is not a river
No they were actually really looking at an atlas (地図帳 in the original, which nothing more than a collection of maps)...so it is very likely that the solution is actually related to some geographical fact.

Ryukishi also said that there are supposedly people who solved the epitaph by about 98%, but the remaining 2% are still very much impossible to be KNOWN, because you have to 'be on Rokkenjima' for it. I explain this in a way that there is still a small thing about Rokkenjima we need to know, but it has to be pretty important.
