Great to see knowledge of haniwa being shared. The world needs more of this.

This was interesting to watch, Im here because of a videogame, and got interested in haniwa, its amazing the detail in the warrior, and some of the livestock.

At first the keiko-armor haniwa seems a bit silly, but the longer I stare the more I get the feeling of this strangely solemn clay figurine being an important individual somewhere in a spiritual world. Fascinating stuff.

looked this up to find out what haniwa even was after listening to it lmao

[@darklingeraeld-ridge7946]

Excellent. Also, this Haniwa, for all its' detail, exemplifies an inventive use of the basic clay. The underlying forms have been made by rolling the clay out into sheets that are cut, and formed into cylinders, cones and other modified planes. You can see these all over the figure, with only surface detail added to suggest the armour.

I enjoyed the commentary about the haniwa's armor. I saw haniwa at Tokyo National Museum. They are really fascinating. I'd like to see more examples of haniwa again after watching this video.

It is very similar to Korean ancient artifact. Note, gaya armor. Gaya, Silla a clay doll. Please refer to the Korea Gaya relics. there is a faster era.

Nope. You are wrong.
Haniwa is a culture unique to Japan, and its origin is Southwest Japan.
Such expression is the culture of the maritime people, and ancient Japan is also the maritime people.
This culture is later transmitted from Japan to other Asian and Pacific countries.
Counterfeit goods may be found in Northeast Asia.

@@darakeno7468 Until Aomori.

[@darakeno7468]

kaisermuto
Aomori's old culture is unique to japan.
In the case of Aomori, you will find artifacts older than Haniwa.
