Buy Old Japanese Flag
Japan is an ancient civilization, with an ancient culture, one that includes the legend, and stories behind the old Japanese Flag. You too can be a part of this ancient culture when you buy an old Japanese flag.
No one really knows where the Hinomaru (Japanese Sun) that is the emblem of the old Japanese flag came from. Historically it is thought to have some sort of religious connotation. It is said that the old japans flag was created by the Buddhist priest Nichiren in the 13th century. Nichiren sent the sun banner into battle.
The Hinomaru became the official national flag from 1870 to 1885, but in truth there have been many old Japanese flags, as each family has their own flag, and the family flag was designated to a father, a son or a brother to carry on their backs, or on their horses into battle. After 1885 the flags of the modern Japanes state was used and the Hinomaru was the National flag, although there was no law to state that.
Another great flag though also not official was the Z signal flag, which has been a big part of Japanese history. It is said that this flag was first used in 1905 when engaging the Russian Baltic Fleet. When the flag was raised it was telling the fleet that “the falte of Imperial Japan” hung on this battle. This same flag was raised at the attack of Pearl Harbor in Hawaii.
If you want a part of history, a flag that means something to both Americans and Japanese then buy this old Japanese flag, a part of an ancient and important culture!
