Origin

change

The Yamato clan was a clan of Kunitsukami [en]. [1] The clan's ancestor was Saonetsuhiko [simple; fr], who was a distinguished figure during Jimmu's Eastern Expedition [en] . [2]

Their Ujigami or clan god is Yamato Okunitama of Ōyamato Shrine[3] Some scholars interpret the kami as being a variant or epithet of Ōmononushi who has much more widespread worship.[4][5]: 22  There is a complex myth about the origins of modern worship of Yamato Okunitama during the reign of Emperor Sujin.[6][7][8][9]

 
Hibara Shrine, at the foot of Mount Miwa in Sakurai, Nara, identified as the place where the Yata-no-Kagami and the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi were first enshrined after their removal from the imperial palace.

During Jimmu's Eastern Expedition [en] Saonetsuhiko [ja] was given the position of governor of Yamato Province by Emperor Jimmu.[10] And Saonetsuhiko became their ancestor.[11]

After the divination, Ichishi no Nagaochi [ja], a descendant of Shinetsuhiko [ja] would conduct the rites pertaining to Okunitama, replacing the emaciated Nunaki-iri-hime.[4] Ichishi no Nagaochi [ja] would be the ancestor of the Yamato no Kuni no Miyatsuko.[12]

Biography

change

In the first year of the reign of Emperor Monmu [en] ( 697 ), he traveled overland to Tsukushi Province as an envoy to welcome the Silla envoys [ja] (his rank at the time was Shin Daiichi). In 710, he was promoted from Junior Sixth Rank to Junior Fifth Rank . In 714, he became the head of the clan [ja] and was in charge of religious services. In the 7th year of the Yoro era ( 723 ), Kii, a man from Sakyo [en], presented a white turtle, which was deemed an auspicious omen, and as the kuni no miyatsuko (Owa kuni no miyatsuko) of the country that had brought the turtle, he was bestowed with 10 pieces of silk, 100 pieces of hemp, and 20 pieces of cloth .

In the third year of the Jinki era ( 726 ), he was promoted to the rank of Junior Fifth Rank. In 727, at a banquet celebrating the birth of Emperor Shōmu [en] 's son, Prince Motoi [ja], anyone of fifth rank [en] or higher was given hemp, and especially the eldest son of a prominent family of fifth rank or higher was given an additional ten bolts of silk. However, Gohyakutaku was specially added to this list along with Chotankai [ja] because of his advanced age.[13]

Year of death unknown. His final official rank was Junior Fifth Rank and Junior Assistant Minister of Justice. [14]

Family tree

Many clans may be descendants of Furutama no Mikoto. This includes the Owari clan [ja; en] and Yamato no Kuni no Miyatsuko. This is a subject of debate.[15]
