The Tokugawa shogunate was established by Tokugawa Ieyasu after victory at the Battle of Sekigahara, ending the civil wars of the Sengoku period following the collapse of the Ashikaga shogunate. Ieyasu became the ''shōgun,'' and the Tokugawa clan governed Japan from Edo Castle in the eastern city of Edo (Tokyo), Edo (Tokyo) along with the ''daimyō'' lords of the ''samurai'' class. The Tokugawa shogunate organized Japanese society under the strict Edo society, Tokugawa class system and banned most foreigners under the isolationist policies of ''Sakoku'' to promote political stability.

Its castle was located within modern-day Fushimi, Kyoto. The strategic location of the castle figured in the 1582 Battle of Yamazaki. During the 1868 Battle of Toba–Fushimi, the master of Yodo changed his allegiance from the Bakumatsu, Shogunate to Imperial forces, going as far as closing his gate and refusing protection to the retreating army of the ''shōgun'' Tokugawa Yoshinobu. History In 1623, Matsudaira Sadatsuna entered the domain with 35,000 koku from the Kakegawa Domain in Totomi, and the Yodo domain was established. This was built to replace the Fushimi domain, which was abolished the previous year, to protect Kyoto. Sadatsuna worked hard to build Yodo Castle (this Yodo Castle is said to have been at a different location than Yodo Old Castle, which is known as the fo ...

It was centered around Kishiwada Castle and was controlled by the ''fudai daimyō'' Okabe clan throughout much of its history. History Kishiwada Domain was founded in 1585, when Toyotomi Hideyoshi installed his maternal uncle, Koide Hidemasa as castellan of Kishiwada Castle. At first, he was allotted a ''kokudaka'' of only 4,000 ''koku'', but this was increased to 10,000 ''koku'' in 1594 and 30,000 ''koku'' in 1595. In the Battle of Sekigahara, Koide Hidemasa and his eldest son Koida Yoshimasa were with the defeated Western Army loyal to the Toyotomi clan.

Kofun

''Kofun'' were mainly constructed in the Japanese archipelago between the middle of the 3rd century to the early 7th century AD.岡田裕之「前方後円墳」『日本古代史大辞典』大和書房、2006年。 The term is the origin of the name of the Kofun period, which indicates the middle 3rd century to early–middle 6th century. Many ''kofun'' have distinctive keyhole-shaped mounds (). The Mozu kofungun, Mozu-Furuichi kofungun, Furuichi kofungun or tumulus clusters were inscribed on the World Heritage Sites in Japan, UNESCO World Heritage List in 2019, while Ishibutai Kofun is one of a number in Asuka-Fujiwara residing on the World Heritage Sites in Japan#Tentative List, Tentative List.

Kofun Period
The is an era in the history of Japan from about 300 to 538 AD (the date of the introduction of Buddhism), following the Yayoi period. The Kofun and the subsequent Asuka periods are sometimes collectively called the Yamato period. This period is the earliest era of recorded history in Japan, but studies depend heavily on archaeology since the chronology of historical sources tends to be distorted. ''Kofun'' is Japanese for the type of tumulus, burial mound dating from this era. It was a period of cultural import. Continuing from the Yayoi period, the Kofun period is characterized by influence from China and the Korean Peninsula; archaeologists consider it a shared culture across the southern Korean Peninsula, Kyūshū and Honshū. On the other hand, the most prosperous keyhole-shaped burial mounds in Japan during this period were approximately 5,000 in Japan from the middle of the 3rd century in the Yayoi period to the 7th century in the Asuka period, and many of them had huge tom ...

Jōmon Period
In Japanese history, the is the time between , during which Japan was inhabited by the Jōmon people, a diverse hunter-gatherer and early agriculturalist population united by a common culture, which reached a considerable degree of sedentism and cultural complexity. The name "cord-marked" was first applied by the American zoologist and orientalist Edward S. Morse, who discovered Glossary of archaeology#potsherd, sherds of pottery in 1877 and subsequently translated "straw-rope pattern" into Japanese language, Japanese as ''Jōmon''.Mason, 14 The pottery style characteristic of the first phases of Jōmon culture was decorated by impressing cords into the surface of wet clay and is generally accepted to be among the oldest in the world. The Jōmon period was rich in tools and jewelry made from bone, stone, shell and antler; Jōmon pottery, pottery figurines and vessels; and lacquerware.Imamura, K.

Japanese Paleolithic
The is the period of human inhabitation in Japan predating the development of pottery, generally before 10,000 BC. The starting dates commonly given to this period are from around 40,000 BC, with recent authors suggesting that there is good evidence for habitation from c. 36,000 BC onwards. The period extended to the beginning of the Mesolithic Jōmon period, or around 14,000 BC. Archaeology of the Paleolithic period The study of the Paleolithic period in Japan did not begin until quite recently: the first Paleolithic site was not discovered until 1946, right after the end of World War II. Due to the previous assumption that humans did not live in Japan before the Jōmon period, excavations usually stopped at the beginning of the Jōmon stratum (14,000 BC), and were not carried on further. However, since that first Paleolithic find by Tadahiro Aizawa, around 5,000 Paleolithic sites have been discovered, some of them at existing Jōmon archaeological sites, and some dating to the ...
