In Series 1 "YAMATAI-koku HIMIKO (SEQ1)", we looked at the distributions of the Remains at "Medium-stream riverside of the HOMAN river, Japan" of Queen HIMIKO age. We talked that there are "Wold" village group and " Plateau" village group. Furthermore we talked that "IRAIJYAKU Remains" the representative of "Plateau" village group and an Enemy Watchtower at WA-koku TAIRAN age. We will look at the details of "IRAIJYAKU". There are seven hundreds houses in 70 years. "IRAIJYAKU" was the big village which had regularly one hundred houses, if the housese were rebuilt every ten years. Therefore the reading is hard work. But we will pick up only the major and characteristic relics. Seven "Forging Iron Wing-Flanged Axe" were excavated in "IRAIJYAKU". That Iron Axe was only one each local village of the FUKUOKA Plain of Japan. We will look at "IRAIJYAKU" as these characteristic relics as well as the Enemy Watchtower which we saw in "続1".
In previous series "YAMATAI-koku HIMIKO", we looked at the photos of the headless skeletons and the war-wound skeletons of the final battle field, "隈・西小田地区遺跡群38" and "永岡遺跡" of Chikushino-city of FUKUOKA prefecture, Japan. These age is in WA-koku TAIRAN (AD146-183), which became the main factor for enthroning Queen HIMIKO. We had looked at "Upstream riverside of the HOMAN river (JP)" of Queen HIMIKO age, that is, the Late YAYOI period, Japan. In this series "YAMATAI-koku HIMIKO SEQ", we will look the remains at "Medium-stream riverside of the HOMAN River (JP)" of Queen HIMIKO age. We will look at the details of "隈・西小田地区遺跡群38", which had been seen the only war-wound skeletons in the previous series. On the other hand, new remain appeared in Queen HIMIKO age on the nearby hill as "以来尺遺跡". What is the mean of this "以来尺遺跡" ? And so on, we will look at the remains of "Medium-stream riverside of the HOMAN river (JP)" of Queen HIMIKO age.
In this YAMATAI-koku HIMIKO SEQ4, we look at "千塔山遺跡" (SENTOYAMA Iseki), which appeared only at the later-stage of the Late-YAYOI period. It is at the later life of the Queen HIMIKO. Imaging 'Why suddenly appeared', we refer from the printed and purchased book. Its just south "柚比遺跡群" (YUBI Iseki-gun) is the defeated side of WA-koku TAIRAN, that is, the pro-Queen side. Like "隈・西小田地区遺跡群" (KUMA-NISHIODA-chiku Iseki-gun), the photos of the headless skeletons and severe war-wounded skeletons appear again. This "柚比遺跡群" (YUBI Iseki-gun) is slightly 10 km east from "吉野ヶ里遺跡" (YOSHINOGARI Iseki), which is the capital of the Queen HIMIKO.
This "YAMATAI-koku HIMIKO SEQ 3" (WA-koku TAIRAN Final Battle "隈・西小田地区遺跡群") is the Queen HIMIKO lineage. This site was previously also talked in "Series 1 : WA-koku TAIRAN and Queen enthrone" of "YAMATAI-koku HIMIKO" book. Many head-hunted skeletons and severe war-wounded skeletons were excavated there. Here, we will look at the situation during WA-koku TAIRAN period, looking at the excavated pottery, houses, and grave goods. In this site, the skeleton weared 41 shell-rings was also excavated. Therefore it is believed that this site was the castle of the king, which was the eastern base of YAMATAI-koku in the SAGA Plain, during the Civil War of WA period. And therefore, this site received a barrage of fire. Moreover the place of "Exposed Head" will be also talked. In this book, texts and figures were refered from the purchased printed original book.
HIMIKO was co-commended and entrusted as a queen in the early of Late Yayoi period of JAPAN. It was noted that HIMIKO bewildered using a ogre shamanism,“事鬼道，能惑衆” in the Records of Three Kingdoms in China. [WA-koku-TAIRAN] finished when a girl, HIMIKO was entrusted as a Queen. [WA-koku-TAIRAN] closed in the end of Middle Yayoi period. What is [WA-koku-TAIRAN] ? This book focused [WA-koku-TAIRAN] just before Queen HIMIKO. 吉ヶ浦 [YOSHIGAURA], 柚ノ木 [YUNOKI], 永岡 [NAGAOKA], 隈・西小田 [KUMA-NISHIODA], these four ruins are important. These ruins are in the West Bank of 宝満川 [JP HOMAN river], 福岡県 [Fukuoka-prefecture], 九州島 [KYUSHU island], JAPAN. If you can read about what happened to the four ruins, the road monuments may save you.
The area of "太宰府天満宮" (DAZAIFU TENMANGU) and "九州国立博物館" (Kyushu National Museum) in the YAYOI period of Japan, 2nd and 3rd century, was introduced. It is 500 m distance from the previous series. Now, "DAZAIFU TENMANGU" started by "菅原道真公" (Duke Sugawara Michizane) from the 10th century. But its previous period is unknown. In this book, we will focus in the 2nd and 3rd century of "DAZAIFU TENMANGU", the YAYOI period of Japan. And the unknown history will be cleared from the excavation reports.
The third-century Chinese chronicle Wei zhi (Record of Wei) is responsible for Japan’s most enduring ancient mystery. This early history tells of a group of islands off the China coast that were dominated by a female shaman named Himiko. Himiko ruled for more than half a century as head of the largest chiefdom, traditionally known as Yamatai, until her death in 248. Yet no such person appears in the old Japanese literature. Who was Himiko and where was the Yamatai she governed? In this, the most comprehensive treatment in English to date, a senior scholar of early Japan turns to three sources—historical, archaeological, and mythological—to provide a multifaceted study of Himiko and ancient Japanese society.
In this, the most comprehensive treatment in English to date, a senior scholar of early Japan turns to three sources - historical, archaeological and mythological - to provide a multifaceted study of ancient Japanese society. Analyzing a tremendous amount of recent archaeological material and synthesizing it with a thorough examination of the textual sources, Professor Kidder locates Yamatai in the Yamato heartland, in the southeastern part of the Nara basin. He describes the formation in the Yayoi period of pan-regional alliances that created the reserves of manpower required to build massive mounded tombs. It is this decisive period, at the end of the Yayoi and the beginning of the Kofun, that he identifies as Himiko's era. He maintains, moreover, that Himiko played a part in the emergence of Yamato as an identifiable political entity. In exploring the cultural and political conditions of this period and identifying the location of Yamatai as Himiko's area of activity, Kidder considers the role of magic in early Japanese society to better understand why an individual with her qualifications reached such a prominent position. He enhances Himiko's story with insights drawn from mythology, turning to a body of commentary for explanations buried deep in mythological stories and the earliest descriptions. Himiko and Japan's Elusive Chiefdom of Yamatai is required reading for Japan historians as well as scholars with an interest in literature and art history during this formative stage in Japan's past.
In this first major study of the region in English, the author examines the key themes of Kyushu’s history from earliest times – the cultural interaction with the continental mainland, settlement, location and infrastructure as well as trade and commerce, – arguing that it was the principal stepping-stone in terms of Japan’s cultural, social and economic advance through history up to the present day. Although an integral part of Japan, Kyushu is culturally distinct in that its location on the East China Sea has exposed the region to an unusually high degree of influence from overseas. There was diplomatic exchange between this island and China, for example, even before the political entity of Japan came into existence. Kyushu, in fact, has been the setting for many of the major cultural encounters in Japan’s history, from the introduction of Buddhism, Confucianism and Christianity to gunpowder, coffee and tea. The volume also includes a colour plate section containing 60 images which support the text and provide the reader/researcher with invaluable pictorial references to Kyushu’s history from earliest times to the present day.
