Two Sovereigns and a Minister

Sengoku Daimyo"s Chronicles of Japan ·

2021/04/01

This episode covers the lives of the 13th and 14th sovereigns, Seimu and Chuai, as well as the Prime Minister through both their reigns, Takechi Sukune.

Badass Women of Ancient Japan

Sengoku Daimyo"s Chronicles of Japan ·

2021/03/16

This episode we're taking a break from the chronology to highlight some of the amazing women of Ancient Japan--and most of those just up through the end of the 4th century--there are others that we'll get to in the Chronicles, but I think we are able to make the points we needed to make. There are stories of women leaders, of women who fought, and women in early STEM fields--such as they were at the time. Really, there's no reason for me to believe that women weren't doing everything that men were

The Creep-Stalker Sovereign

Sengoku Daimyo"s Chronicles of Japan ·

2021/03/01

CW: Discussion of sexual assault This episode looks at a couple of the so-called "romantic" episodes in the life of the twelfth sovereign, including one found only in the Harima Fudoki, and starts to ask some serious questions about the seemingly contradictory timelines found in various sources. Eventually, this will bring us to the middle of the 4th century, and ready to advance forward in the story.

Here we cover the second part of the story of Yamato Takeru, following his path back from the northeast and through the mountains of Kai and Shinano, taking on the gods of the mountains as he did so. This episode we cover perhaps some of the less well known parts of the rest of Yamato Takeru's life.

The Brave of Yamato, Part I

2021/02/01

Here we start the story of the Brave of Yamato: Yamato Takeru. The archetype for later heroes, and the primary story told about the early conquest of Japan. In this episode we take a look at his early years and victories and follow him out to the East and his campaign against the Emishi.

This episode we start the reign of Ōtarashi Hiko, aka Keikō Tennō. Specifically, this episode we will be focusing on his campaigns in Kyushu against the people known as the Kumaso, as well as others: so-called "brigands" and "tsuchigumo".

Ikume's Miscellany

2021/01/01

This episode we go into a variety of seemingly unconnected things from the reign of Ikume Iribiko: The founding of sumo (and haniwa), the founding of various shrines (Ise and Isonokami), and the founding--finding?--of oranges, or tachibana. It is a bit of a grab bag--hence the title! For more go to: https://sengokudaimyo.com/podcast/episode-32 Rough Transcript Welcome to Sengoku Daimyo’s Chronicles of Japan.

The Romance of Saho HIme

Sengoku Daimyo"s Chronicles of Japan ·

2020/12/16

CW: This episode deals with some aspects of suicide as historical phenomena. For all the history, here we have a real story for you, and I think you'll enjoy it. It is the romance of Saho Hime, the wife of the 11th sovereign, Ikume Iribiko. Filled with love and betrayal--a truly epic story, especially for what we typically find so far in the Chronicles. We also discuss Saho Hime's son, Homutsu Wake, as well as other aspects of the story, and of course, we do try to look at how it fits into the

Getting into the reign of Ikume Iribiko (aka Suinin Tennou) and we'll briefly cover the state of the Korean Peninsula as we will deal quite a bit with the stories of travelers who are said to have come over at this time--Sonaka, Tsunoga, and Ame no Hiboko, possibly all one and the same person or possibly combinations of several different people.

The August Founder

2020/11/16

So this episode we continue with the reign of Mimaki Iribiko, and look at why the Chronicles refer to him as the August Founder, even though he is also the 10th sovereign. We'll look at how he is said to have "pacified" the rest of the land. We'll also compare what the Chronicles tell us with what we know through other sources.

The Birth of the Miwa Cult

Sengoku Daimyo"s Chronicles of Japan ·

2020/11/01

This episode we finally have some seeming correlation between the Chronicles and some of our historical and archaeological data. So let's take a look at the 10th sovereign, Mimaki Iribiko, and his aunt, the female shaman,Yamato Totohi Momoso Hime--is this perhaps the elusive Himiko herself? In the third century there was considerable activity around the base of Mt. Miwa, where Ōmononushi no Kami was enshrined. Join us as we try to weave this story together. For more go to:

9 Fictional Sovereigns, and 1 (Possibly) Real One!

Sengoku Daimyo"s Chronicles of Japan ·

2020/10/16

This episode we will go through the first nine legendary sovereigns. Having covered Iware Biko, aka Jimmu, in the last several episodes, the following eight sovereigns are likely completely fictional--possibly famous names in the stories of Yamato, they appear to have been placed here specifically to pad out the royal lineage and make it seem longer and more ancient than it was. By the end of it all we should be approaching what we might at least recognize as something we can correlate with some

The Court at Kashihara

Sengoku Daimyo"s Chronicles of Japan ·

2020/10/01

This episode we go into some of the people and things around the court of Iware Biko, aka Jimmu Tennō. We'll talk about his queen, Hime Tatara Isuzu Hime, as well as some of the members of his court, including Umashimaji--that son of the other Heavenly Descendant, Nigi Hayahi. We'll also talk a little bit about what the kofun tell us about what early kingship may have actually looked like at this time. Of course, then there is Jimmu's own kofun--or at least the kofun identified as Jimmu's. For

The Heavenly Grandson on the March

Sengoku Daimyo"s Chronicles of Japan ·

2020/09/16

In many ways Japan traces its "founding" as a nation to the story of Iware Biko--aka the Sovereign Jimmu--and the establishment of his court in the central land of Yamato in the Nara Basin. This is the story of how Iware Biko is said to have marched from Southern Kyushu east to the eventual central land, where the first true capitals of Japan would be located.

The OTHER Heavenly Grandson

2020/09/01

Welcome to our 24th episode, and our 1 year anniversary! This episode we get to talk to a much overlooked figure: Nigi Hayahi no Mikoto--elder brother to Hiko Ho no Ninigi no Mikoto, grandson of Takami Musubi no Mikoto and Amaterasu Omikami, and the first Divine Descendant to come down and rule in Yamato. So why don't we know more about this figure? And what does it say that there were apparently two Heavenly Grandsons? We'll go over this story and try to unwrap a little bit of the mystery, as

Heavenly Princes Behaving Badly

Sengoku Daimyo"s Chronicles of Japan ·

2020/08/16

CW: Men disrespecting/not listening to women This episode we finish the story of Ninigi and move on to the story of Hiko Hohodemi. We'll touch on the stories, where we've tried to combine the elements of the various chronicles into one narrative. And there are definitely some themes in these stories about the men of the Heavenly lineage not listening to the women in their lives, which shouldn't be much of a shock at this point.

Descent of the Heavenly Grandchild

Finally, the Heavenly Grandchild makes their descent to the earthly realm! Thus begins the story of the main thrust of our story, with the royal line of sovereigns now in the archipelago--though we are still a few generations from the "first" ruler. This episode we will follow the Divine Descendant down to earth, along with their retinue, and see just who they meet along the way.

Ceding the Central Land of the Reed Plains

2020/07/15

This episode we are back in the Chronicles and going through the attempts by the High Plain of Heaven to pacify the land so that they could send the Divine Descendant down to rule over it. This would be perfect if it just weren't for the fact that, well, there were already people there. But that has rarely stopped people in the past. We'll go over the various attempts to send different kami down to subdue the land until finally they send kami that aren't going to just set up shop down in the
