The central government, seated in the Asuka region, endeavored to establish control over the northern territories by wielding its superior military power. It also sent out expedition forces to the Korean peninsula to assist the movement to restore the fallen kingdom of Paekche(Kudara) in vain. And the period saw the greatest civil war of the ancient Japan fought over the emperor’s throne. Nihon-shoki, the oldest Japanese history records the campaigns of a general named Abe no Hikita no Omi Hirafu, in northern Japan and abroad. In this exhibition we examine fighting gears of his army in comparison with the weapons of the northern tribes. The military equipment and system of Japan were much improved under the influence of Tang dynasty in this era. We would like to trace those changes through his eyes.
