Yagi, Kyoto
was a town located in Funai District, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan. As of 2003, the town had an estimated population of 8,916 and a density of 179.90 persons per km2. The total area was 49.56 km2. On January 1, 2006, Yagi, along with the towns of Hiyoshi, Sonobe (all from Funai District), and the town of Miyama (from Kitakuwada District), was merged to create the city of Nantan. Nestled between mountains and situated in the Ōi River basin, Yagi is more a collection of small villages than a single town. The town center, situated along the river, is only a small part of Yagi's total area. Though Yagi is decidedly rural, its proximity to Kyoto by train makes it an extended suburb of sorts. It is estimated that about 60% of Yagi's adult working population commutes to Kyoto or Osaka daily. Yagi is easily accessible via the JR Sagano Train Line from Kyoto. Yagi has a long history dating back at least as far as the Nara Period, when Yagi's extant Sanin Road was a main route thr ...

Yagi (Kashihara)
is a part of Kashihara, located in Nara, Japan. According to ancient texts ( Nihonshoki and Kojiki), Yagi has a significant place in Japan's history. The first emperor, Emperor Jimmu, journeyed from Miyazaki Prefecture to Kashihara, making his way through the Yoshino mountains and eventually choosing the east side of Mount Unebi (2 kilometres from central Yagi) for his palace site. However, before securing the Unebi location, the armies of Emperor Jimmu were caught up in battle. Hopelessly outnumbered, legend has it that Jimmu's army was saved when a golden kite swept down from the sky and landed on the tip of Jimmu's bow. The kite then shot out a beam of light toward the enemy, blinding them and causing them to retreat. In central Yagi, a 'Golden Kite' monument has been erected to commemorate Jimmu's legendary feat. The Yamato-Yagi Station is a large Kintetsu train station serving Yagi, with express lines to downtown Osaka (40 minutes), Kyoto (1 hour) and Nara city (20 minu ...

Yagi-nishiguchi Station
is a railway station on the Kintetsu Kashihara Line, located in Kashihara, Nara, Japan. It is a typical small station, but has a unique status as a non-independent station. For a historical reason, the station is a part of Yamato-Yagi Station, a large intersection station located about 300 meters north of the station. History The station is the original site of Yamato-Yagi Station which opened here in 1923 and moved to the present location in 1929 when the railway company did not remove the original platforms of the station and continued the service with the old facilities as well as the new Yamato-Yagi Station. Yagi-nishiguchi Station is therefore treated as the same station as Yamato-Yagi Station on some occasions, such as the calculation of distance-based fares. However, travel between Yagi-nishiguchi Station and Yamato-Yagi Station costs 150 yen, even though it is a mere move within the station, and walking the distance will take no longer than 5 minutes.

Yagi–Uda Antenna
A Yagi–Uda antenna or simply Yagi antenna, is a directional antenna consisting of two or more parallel resonant antenna elements in an end-fire array; these elements are most often metal rods acting as half-wave dipoles. Yagi–Uda antennas consist of a single driven element connected to a radio transmitter and/or receiver through a transmission line, and additional "passive radiators" with no electrical connection, usually including one so-called ''reflector'' and any number of ''directors''. It was invented in 1926 by Shintaro Uda of Tohoku Imperial University, Japan, with a lesser role played by his guidance Hidetsugu Yagi. (This was the preface and notice in advance for a series of 11 papers with the same title by Uda between 1926–1929 on the antenna. However, it seems that Uda's pre-announcement caused his invention to lose its novelty and become unpatentable. He would not have been informed by Professor Yagi about those.)
