<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", serif, HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
This is an "Ema". "Ema" are small wooden plaques on which Shinto worshippers write their prayers or wishes. The ema are then left hanging up at the shrine, where the kami (spirits or gods) receive them. They bear various pictures, often of animals or other Shinto imagery, and many have the word gan'i (願意), meaning "wish", written along the side. In ancient times people would donate horses to the shrines for good favor, over time this was transferred to a wooden plaque with a picture of a horse, and later still to the various wooden plaques sold today for the same purpose.<br />
<br style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />
Ema are sold for various wishes. Common reasons for buying a plaque are for success in work or on exams, marital bliss, to have children, and health. Some shrines specialize in certain types of these plaques, and the larger shrines may offer more than one. Sales of ema help support the shrine financially.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", serif, HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
<br style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />
<span style="box-sizing: border-box; color: red; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">********This Ema is from Kirishima Jingu Kagoshima Prefecture</span>.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", serif, HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Kirishima-Jingū</span> (霧島神宮), also called Takachiho-no-mine-jina (one of the peak of Mount Kirishima and the place of Tenson kōrin) is a Shinto shrine located in Kirishima, Kagoshima prefecture, Japan.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", serif, HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
The mountains of Kirishima are an important site in the creation mythology of Japan. It was in this area that the god Ninigi no Mikoto, grandson of the sun goddess Amaterasu, is said to have descended from heaven to rule over the earth.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", serif, HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
Ninigi no Mikoto landed on nearby Mt. Takachiho-no-mine bringing with him the three imperial regalia: the sword, the mirror and the gem; symbols of the imperial family. He eventually married a local princess, becoming mortal in the process, and established the lineage of Japanese Emperors.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", serif, HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
Devoted to Ninigi no Mikoto, Kirishima Shrine was built during the Muromachi Period on a different site from where it stands today. Since then it has been destroyed numerous times by volcanic eruptions, but always rebuilt. The current shrine was constructed in 1715 where it survives to this day. Its large, beautiful buildings are surrounded by forest and have been declared important cultural property.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", serif, HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
The image on the plaque is called a "tengu".</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", serif, HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Tengu</em></span> (天狗, "heavenly dog") are a type of legendary creature found in Japanese folk religion and are also considered a type of Shinto god (kami) or yōkai (supernatural beings). Although they take their name from a dog-like Chinese demon (Tiangou), the <em style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">tengu</em> were originally thought to take the forms of birds of prey, and they are traditionally depicted with both human and avian characteristics. The earliest <em style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">tengu</em> were pictured with beaks, but this feature has often been humanized as an unnaturally long nose, which today is widely considered the <em style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">tengu</em>'s defining characteristic in the popular imagination.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", serif, HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
Buddhism long held that the <em style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">tengu</em> were disruptive demons and harbingers of war. Their image gradually softened, however, into one of protective, if still dangerous, spirits of the mountains and forests. <em style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Tengu</em> are associated with the ascetic practice of Shugendō, and they are usually depicted in the garb of its followers, the <em style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">yamabushi</em>.</div>

<br style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />
This Ema is from the 21st year of the Heisei era (2009)<br />
It measures about 15.5cm x 12cm x 7mm. </div>

This hand towel is called a "tenugui". A Tenugui (手拭い) is a thin Japanese hand towel made of cotton. It is typically plain woven and is almost always dyed with some pattern. It can be used for anything a towel could be used for - as a washcloth, dishcloth, but often as a headband, souvenir or decoration. Towels made from terry cloth have replaced many of its use in the household. However tenugui are still popular as souvenirs, decorations, and as a head covering in kendo, where it functions as a sweatband, as extra padding beneath the headgear (men), and to identify the participants by team color.<br />
<br style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />
It is 35 cm x 87 cm (approx 347 x 13 inches) and is 100% cotton.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Palatino, "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", serif, HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
Sumo is an ancient form of wrestling dating back at least 2000 years. It incorporates many Shinto (the national religion) rituals and ceremonies. For example the wrestlers periodically throw salt across and out from the ring. This is an act of purification, salt long being used for that purpose at Shinto shrines. Sumo was performed for “Kami” (Gods) at “matsuri” (festivals). The place where they perform sumo is still considered sacred like a Shinto shrine.</div>

<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: "graphik webfont" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">I was so happy to find this print! In this print there are samurai named Hideyoshi and 2 women maids in bath room. This is an insert from a magazine. This print is a special insert in May, 1932 for Art magazine subscribers </span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: "Graphik Webfont", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: "graphik webfont" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Toyotomi Hideyoshi (February 2, 1536 or March 26, 1537 – September 18, 1598) was a preeminent daimyo, warrior, general and politician of the Sengoku period[1] who is regarded as Japan's second "great unifier."[2] He succeeded his former liege lord, Oda Nobunaga, and brought an end to the Sengoku period. The period of his rule is often called the Momoyama period, named after Hideyoshi's castle. After his death, his young son Hideyori was displaced by Tokugawa Ieyasu.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: "Graphik Webfont", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: "graphik webfont" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Hideyoshi is noted for a number of cultural legacies, including the restriction that only members of the samurai class could bear arms. He financed the construction, restoration and rebuilding of many temples standing today in Kyoto.

<span style="font-family: "georgia"; font-size: large;">This hand towel is called a "tenugui". </span><span style="font-family: "georgia"; font-size: large;">A Tenugui (手拭い) is a thin Japanese hand towel made of cotton. It is typically plain woven and is almost always dyed with some pattern. It can be used for anything a towel could be used for - as a washcloth, dishcloth, but often as a headband, souvenir or decoration. Towels made from terry cloth have replaced many of its use in the household. However tenugui are still popular as souvenirs, decorations, and as a head covering in kendo, where it functions as a sweatband, as extra padding beneath the headgear (men), and to identify the participants by team color.</span><span style="font-family: "georgia";"><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><br />It is 35 cm x 87 cm (approx 34 x 13 inches) and is 100% cotton.</span></span></div>
