Origin

change

The Wa clan (Wa koku no miyatsuko family ) was a powerful clan in Yamato-go, Joka - gun, Yamato Province, which currently corresponds to Yamato, Saho-cho, in the southern part of Tenri City, Nara Prefecture . The Shinsen Shōjiroku [en] 's "Yamato no Kuni Kamiwake" section states that "his descendants were Kamichitsuhiko no Mikoto," while the Nihon Shoki, Volume 3 states that his ancestor was Shiinetsuhiko [fr] [1], and the Kojiki states that his ancestor was Saonetsuhiko [fr] [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 year 562 AD (the 23rd year of Emperor Kinmei's reign), following the destruction of the Mimana region by Silla[13], Emperor Kinmei earnestly desired the reestablishment of the Mimana Nihonfu [ja].

The Nihon Shoki, in its 19th volume, narrates the tale of Ki no Omaro [ja], the commanding general of the expeditionary force against Silla, and Kawabe no Nie. Ki no Omaro, upon facing a feigned surrender from Silla, wisely halted his advance rather than falling for the deceit. However, Kawabe no Nie, not grasping the significance behind Silla's raising of the white flag, mistakenly did the same and advanced, leading to a renewed attack from Silla that inflicted heavy casualties on the vanguard.

Tehiko, a provincial governor (kuni no miyatsuko) of Wa, serving under Kawabe no Nie, realized that reversing the course of the battle was no longer feasible and retreated from the frontline. A Silla commander, wielding a spear, chased him down, cornering him at a moat within the fortress. Although the commander hurled his spear at Tehiko, Tehiko managed to narrowly escape by riding his swift horse across the moat. The Silla commander, in frustration, couldn't help but cry out loud.

The battle concluded with the Silla commander taking Kawabe no Nie and accompanying women as prisoners. Kawabe no Nie was eventually released in exchange for his wife, Umanishihime, who had been made a concubine by the commander. Even after being released, she refused to obey Kawabe no Nie.

The subsequent fate of Tehiko remains unrecorded and, thus, unknown.[14]

According to volume 29 of the Nihon Shoki, in the year 681 (April of the 10th year of Emperor Tenmu's reign), a clan member by the name of Yamato Naotatsumaro was granted the surname "Muraji [en]".[15] By September of the 12th year of Emperor Tenmu's reign, this surname was conferred upon all members of the Yamato clan. Following the establishment of the eight-rank surname system in 685 (June of the 14th year of Emperor Tenmu's reign), the Yamato clan, descendants of the kuni no miyatsuko, were bestowed the surname Ikimi.[16]

Family tree

change

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.[17]
