Unsolved:Kawachi dynasty

The Kawachi Dynasty is the name of an ancient Japanese regime that is said to have been based on the Uemachi Plateau in present-day Osaka , as mentioned in the overview. Osaka Plain, which was replaced by a Japanese dynasty.

Overview

In contrast to the statement in Nihon Shoki that the Emperor Jimmu has continued uninterruptedly since the founding of the Emperor Jimmu, it is a position statement in historical studies that multiple dynasties rose and fell during the Japanese occupation (Dynasty rotation theory).

Even among those who consider the Great Kings who were based in Naniwanomiya Palace to be a single dynasty, there are various theories as to who should be regarded as the founder and what the name of the dynasty should be called.

The theory that a new regime (Kawachi Dynasty) was established in Kawachi at the end of the 4th century is said to have its origin in a roundtable discussion by Namio Egami and others published in 1949, "The Origin of Japanese Ethnicity and Culture and the Formation of the Japanese State" (Ethnological Studies, Vol. 13, No. 3) Later, in the 1960s, Kojiro Naoki, Masaaki Ueda, Seiji Okada, and others published a series of studies based on this position. The Kawachi dynasty theory was a leading theory in the 1960s, but since the 1980s, it has been widely rejected by the academic community.

It was Masaaki Ueda who first referred to this regime as the Kawachi Dynasty', and the name "Kawachi Dynasty" has since become established Oriental historian Hidehiro Okada, Japanese historian Yoshinobu Tsukaguchi, and others have used the name Kawachi Dynasty. The researcher who refers to himself as Namba Dynasty is the archaeologist Tokutaro Yamane. There are Kojiro Naoki used the name "Ojin Dynasty" from the standpoint of regarding Emperor Ojin as the first generation of the regime, but later on he began to use the name "Kawachi Regime" to avoid confusion with the "Dynasty State"

Theory by Hidehiro Okada

Hidehiro Okada ordered the compilation of "Nihon Shoki" from Emperor Jimmu to Emperor Ojin in Nihon Shoki. It is a fictitious existence created by the convenience of the current administration (Emperor Tenmu and its descendants), and among the successive emperors of the Nihon Shoki, it is certain that it existed in history Emperor Nintoku, and the royal lineage of Ryo and his descendants is called theKawachi dynasty.

Okada interpreted "Sodei" in the superscription sent to the Southern Song dynasty of China in 487 by the Japanese king Takemu, who is compared to Emperor Yuryaku, to mean "Ne, the grandfather" and interpreted "Ne" to be the name of Takemu's grandfather.

Based on this interpretation, Okada has seen Song Book Five Kings of Wa and "Nihon Shoki". Emperor is determined as follows:

禰（Emperor Nintoku）┬賛（Emperor Richū）
　　　　　　　├珍（Emperor Hanzei）
　　　　　　　└済（Emperor Ingyō）┬興（Emperor Ankō）
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　└武（Emperor Yūryaku）
