This compelling historical study delves into the fascinating era of the Five Kings of Wa, figures from ancient Japan who sent envoys to China in the 5th century.

Published by the esteemed Chuokoron-Shinsha, this book offers a detailed analysis of how these kings shaped the nascent Japanese state and its interactions with neighboring powers. Note: The text is entirely in Japanese. Brand New Japanese Edition.
