Japanese Art

            Origami is a famous Japanese cultural art. It is both beautiful and unique every time it is made because it is hand-crafted, and different than every other.

Commercial Time

             I made this video with insterted sound that me and my partner used for sword clashes and sheathing. We also used the gutting of a watermelon to simulate death.

Roles in Ancient Japanese Families

            All roles in ancient Japanese families were important. The Mom stayed at home and did the house work and ordered the servants around (if you were rich enough to have a servant). The Dad went shopping and went to work for money. The first born was to grow up to be a scribe or anything else important. The second born would play all day and go to school he would grow up and choose what job he would have then.

Relations to Canada from Japan

            Canada can relate to ancient Japan in many ways. Some include: Trade and Economy, we also celebrate New Years. Some other relative facts about Canada and Japan are: we are close enough to each other to put Europe to shame at how far it is from us here in Canada.

 Japan shut itself out from the world for a long time but with Canada we weren't discovered until Christopher Coloumbus arrived in America in 1492.

Dwellings and Structures

            We are moving to dwellings and structures as in my second post I said I would look into this so here we go. The first and most basic thing you should know about  ancient Japanese structures are that most of the ancient Japanese structures have slanted roofs because of their religion and the souls of the falling dead will slide off the roof. Temples where mostly the same. Most temples were close to the sun. Temples where mostly the same most temples were tall to speak to the gods and some that weren't where quiet because public would go there for mass and Japanese religious events (like prayer and new year). Gazeebos were used to relax in ones backyard or celebrate a friends death or party.

Japanese Transportation

            There where many forms of Japanese transportation in ancient times. An example is a boat or a

Horse-drawn cart as another. Many men in the Japanese armies rode Horses, as shown above.

Japanese Yamato Dynasty

            The Yamato dynasty was the biggest and longest dynasty ever. It still is in process today. It does not have ninja and samurai, but they have guns and the modern weapons and some of the same ancient cultures and farming. Many people still use Katanas for cultural reasons. It started many years ago when the son of Susanoo had a kingdom with lots of wars and Amateratsu's oldest son took over. Amateratsu's son was the first Yamato king.
