We’ll also discuss some of the theories regarding this reign, particularly its chronological placement in the Chronicles, which may not be exactly as it seems.

Cross-Strait Relations, Part II

2022/12/01

This episode we are back looking at what the Chronicles tell us about what was going on between Yamato and the various states of the peninsula, but from a very insular viewpoint. I recommend listening to Part I, first, and consider what the Chronicles are saying in a larger context. That said, we have lots going on, from the troubles with Nimna and Kara/Gaya, as well as rebellion in Tsukushi--aka Northern Kyushu. And of course, plenty of people just behaving badly, because humans haven't really

This first part will look mostly at what we know about these areas from the linguistic and archaeological angles. Specifically, we are trying to break down the notion that there was necessarily a clear distinction between the "peninsula" and the "archipelago". Gina Barnes often
