Owari clan

(Redirected from Draft:Owari clan)
Not to be confused with Owari Tokugawa family.

The Owari clan is a Japanese clan. The clan were originally Kuni no miyatsuko but after the abolition of the role they took on a priestly role at Atsuta Shrine. They share this history with the Izumo clan of Izumo-taisha, the Aso clan of Aso Shrine, the Munakata clan [ja] of Munakata Taisha,[1] the Amabe clan of Kono Shrine[2] and the Yamato clan of Ōyamato Shrine.

History

Origins and genealogy

edit

In Shinsen Shōjiroku, the descendants of Amatsuhikone, Ame-no-hohi, and Amanomichine [ja], together with the descendants of Amenohoakari are referred to as Tenson-zoku. The Tenson-zoku descended from Takamagahara (Plain of High Heaven) to Owari and Tanba provinces, and are considered to be the ancestors of the Owari clan, as well as three other clans Tsumori [ja], Amabe, and Tanba [ja] clans.[3]

However, Toshio Hoga argues that Amabe clan genealogy (海部氏系図, Amabe-shi Keizu), which records these four clans as descendants of Amenohoakari, is a forged document,[4] and that these clans actually descended from the sea deity Watatsumi. In addition, Owari clan's genealogy includes the great-grandson of Watatsumi, Takakuraji, as their ancestor, and he argues this is the original genealogy.[5]

Atsuta Shrine

edit

The "Daijingu engi" records show that during Emperor Temmu's time, the divine sword Kusanagi no Tsurugi was returned to the palace. Seven guardians were then appointed to oversee its worship. These guardians were linked to Miyazu-hime and Takeinadane [ja].[6]

Miyazu-hime the wife of Yamato Takeru was a member of the clan[6]

According to traditional sources, Yamato Takeru died in the 43rd year of Emperor Keiko's reign (景行天皇43年, equivalent 113 AD).[6]: 433  The possessions of the dead prince were gathered together along with the sword Kusanagi; and his widow Miyazu-hime venerated his memory in a shrine at her home. Sometime later, these relics and the sacred sword were moved to the current location of the Atsuta Shrine.[6]: 434 

Nihonshoki explains that this move occurred in the 51st year of Keiko's reign, but shrine tradition also dates this event in the 1st year of Emperor Chūai's reign.[6]: 435  The Owari clan established the Atsuta Shrine in 192, and held the position of the shrine's high priest since ancient times, passing it down from generation to generation.[7] Yamato Takeru and Miyazu-hime and her brother Takeinadane [ja] are worshipped at the shrine.[6]: 429 

When Miyasuhime died, a shrine was set up in her honor in Hikami. Her clan members became priests there. Inatane, the eleventh descendant of Amenohoakari, founded the Owari clan. As a result, Atsuta Myojin became the Owari clan's Ujigami.[6]

The shrine, originally a Betsugu, later became a Sessha. It was founded in the fourth year of Chtiai (195), about 80 years after Yamato Takeru no Mikoto's death. Miyasuhime was young when she knew Yamato Takeru no Mikoto.[6]

Later history

edit

The "Owariuji keizu" and shrine records reveal that during the times of Emperors Temmu, Jito, and Mommu, Owari no Muraji Inaki and his son, Owari no Muraji Inaoki, were Daiguji. Tadashika held this office for 40 years, from 1045 to 1084. His grandson, Suenori, succeeded him.[6]

Tadanobu's eldest son, Tadayori, was the first Horishi, later called Gonguji. Other positions included Sokengyo and Ouchibito. The Tajima Daiki, and Baba families were known as the Shinkwan.[6]

Below the Shinkwan were the Negi, also called Churo. Notable families included Awata Mabito, Ohara Mabito, Hayashi Asomi, Matsuoka Mabito, and Kume. Some had rights to worship at Hikami Jinja.[6]In 1114, Kazumoto handed the position over to Fujiwara no Suenori, who was from the Fujiwara clan.[7] Since then, the Fujiwara clan became the head of Atsuta Shrine, while the Owari clan stepped down to the position of adjutant chief priest (gongūji).[8]

In Hoei I (1704), the Daiguji's decision to appoint an Atsuta Hoshi from Jingu-ji led to protests from the Negi families. The protest was not successful.[6]

Cultural influence

edit

According to one theory, Danpusan Kofun is the tomb of a powerful chieftain of the Owari clan, perhaps Owari no Kusaka [ja], who is mentioned in the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki chronicles of the Nara period, and whose daughter married the semi-legendary Emperor Keitai and who was the mother of Emperor Ankan and Emperor Senka.[9] According to legend Miyazu-hime a member of the clan is buried in Danpusan Kofun.[10]

The Owari clan was influential on the development of the Kujiki.[11] It was mainly written as a compilation of elements from the Kojiki, Nihongi and Kogo Shui, likely by an author from the Mononobe clan.[12]: 31  However it also contains unique elements from neither. Book 5 is believed to preserve traditions of the Mononobe and Owari clans not found elsewhere, and Book 10 preserves the earlier historical record the Record of the Provincial governors (国造本紀, Kokuzō Hongi).[11]

The Owari clan established the Atsuta Shrine.[8]
