Although some are extant from the eighteenth century, they were not published regularly until the early nineteenth century.
The modern characters used to write the word mean "song-dance-skill," although only kana seem to have been used for the term in the early to mid-seventeenth century.
Kata were forms in (1) acting; (2) performance style (such as aragoto, wagoto, and shosagoto); (3) techniques (such as mie, entrances and exits, specialized movements, vocalizations and sound effects, costumes and makeup, and staging); and (4) interpretation (individuated approaches to roles developed by actors to suit their strengths and weaknesses).
