An Exhibition of Early Buddhist Funerary Urns (now finished) and a bit on the complicated history of burial and cremation in Japan
20 August, 2020

A 9th century funerary urn unearthed near the shores of Lake Kasumigaura. During the previous centuries, in the very same area, men of importance had been buried in large tumuli filled with symbols of the deceased`s status and surrounded by a lively cast of animal and human shaped figurines– with the spread of Buddhism, local elites eventually came to have themselves cremated after death and their bones and ashes buried in simple urns ....

Hachiman: Deified Emperor, War God, Protector Of The Japanese People

The Legacy Of Emperor Ojin: Deified As Hachiman
Tradition has it that Ojin’s grave is in Habikino not far from Osaka. The emperor’s grave is of a type known in Japanese as a “ kofun” meaning “old mound,” about 160000 of which have been identified around Japan. Ojin’s kofun is the second largest kofun in Japan, measuring 425 m (1394 ft) in length. The only other kofun larger than Ojin’s is the one belonging to Emperor Nintoku, his immediate successor, which is 486 m (1594 ft) in length, excluding the surrounding moat and ramparts.
It should be mentioned, however, that there is no solid evidence to prove that either kofun contains the tomb of an emperor. Still, the two ancient mounds are impressive, and, along with 47 others in the area, have been inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List as the “Mozu-Furuichi Kofun Group: Mounded Tombs of Ancient Japan.” ....

Visit Hakozakigu Shrine on Dec. 31 to see one of Japan’s New Year traditions, the
mochitsuki. Mochitsuki is when rice is pounded to make
mochi (rice cakes). The
mochi at this festival are in the shape of
namako (sea cucumbers). The
namako
mochi are traditional and were first made after a fisherman from Hakozaki, due to lack of time, brought a sea cucumber instead of a rice cake to the birth celebrations of Emperor Ojin one New Year’s Eve. Ever since, fishermen from Hakozaki assemble at Hakozakigu every New Year to pound ....
