The graves of Soga brothers

The graves of Soga brothers

This is a tomb commonly believed to be that of the Soga Brothers, Sukenari and Tokimune, and Sukenari's mistress, Toragozen. It is reported that they killed Suketsune Kudo at Makigari at the foot of Mt. Fuji in 1193, in relatiation for murdering their father. The size and the layout of these tombs, National Important Cultural Assets, appear to conform to that story. The engraved date of 1295 is present, and therefore this cannot be the tomb of the Sogas. Two men, who appear to be samurai, are praying.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number64‐77‐0]

      The Hakone post town and a girl in a palanquin

      The Hakone post town and a girl in a palanquin

      This is the view from Shin-machi of the post town of Hakone when facing Hakone checkpoint. The mountain behind is Komagadake. The street where the palanquin men are is Tokaido Highway (present-day National Route 1). The house on the right is facing toward southwest and a child and an old man are enjoying the sun. Judging from their clothes, it appears to be either late autumn or early spring. The girl on the palanquin is probably a tourist.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐25‐0]

        The curtain gate to the tomb in Bunsho-in,Zojoji Temple,Shiba

        The Shikiri Gate dividing the Hall of Worship and the inner shrine at Bunshoin Mausoleum is seen from the Hall of Worship. The inner shrine was designed in a straight line from this gate all the way up to the pagoda in the deepest part of the mausoleum. Later, the tombs of the 12th Shogun Ieyoshi and 14th Shogun Iemochi were added, but the location of the inner shrine remained the same.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:Tamamura Kozaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number80‐30‐0]

          Rokudo jizo,stone statue of the guardian deity

          The Rokudo Jizo are typical examples of stone Buddhist statues in Hakone together with the Magai botoke of Nijugobosatsu. It was carved on a rock facing Shojin Lake at the foot of the Mt. Kamifutagoyama, and has a height of over 4 meters. It was completed in 1300, and the Buddhist ceremony to consecrate a newly made image was conducted by Ryokan Boninjo. It is a national historic site.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:Ogawa Kazumasa, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number7‐21‐0]

              Men drawing water from a well

              Men wearing head towels and loincloths are at a well to draw water. This is an old well built with stones. The wall behind them may be that of a former castle. The embankment continues to the foot of a mountain covered with bamboo trees. The location is unknown.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:R.

                A water mill at Hakone

                This is the northeastern view from the present-day parking lot of Miyagino Hojuin Temple. The water mill was taken place by a residential house, but the Setosawa Creek and the waterway on the left side of the water mill still exist today. The site where the palanquin men stand was the rice paddie until around 1975. The mountains far away are Myoujingadake and Hiuchidake.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:A.

                    The Tamadare Falls,Hakone

                    A woman and two palanquin men are watching Tamadare Falls at Hakone Yumoto. Judging from the appearance of the place, this photo was taken after 1891 when this place became Takinomae-Yuen Park by the entrepreneur Takashi Koyasu. Since it is written Ichinoyu on the hanten jacket worn by the palanquin man, it is assumed that a woman staying at the shinise (long-standing) inn Ichinoyu at Tonosawa Spa is visiting here.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐34‐0]
