Emperor Hanzei
(
反正天皇
,
Hanzei-
tenn?
)
was the 18th
emperor
of
Japan
,
[1]
according to the
traditional order of succession
.
[2]
Historians consider details about the life of Emperor Hanzei to be
possibly
legendary
, but
probable
.
[3]
The name Hanzei
-tenn?
was
created
for him
posthumously
by later
generations
.
No
certain
dates can be
assigned
to this emperor's life or
reign
.
[4]
The
conventionally
accepted names and sequence of the early emperors were not to be
confirmed
as "traditional" until the reign of
Emperor Kammu
, who was the 50th
monarch
of the
Yamato dynasty
.
[5]
According to
Nihonshoki
and
Kojiki
, he was a son of
Emperor Nintoku
. The eldest son would become known as
Emperor Rich?
.
Hanzei was the brother of Rich?. Hanzei's enthronement by-passed Rich?'s two sons. Few other details have survived.
[6]
Very little is known about the events of Hanzei's life and reign. Only limited information is
available
for study prior to the reign of the 29th monarch,
Emperor Kimmei
.
[7]
The mausoleum (
misasagi
) of Emperor Hanzei in
Osaka Prefecture
.
Hanzei's reign is described as a time of peace. He died quietly in his palace.
[8]
This emperor's official name after his death (his
posthumous name
) was
regularized
many centuries after the lifetime which was
ascribed
to Hanzei.
[9]
According to the
Imperial Household Agency
, the emperor's final resting place is in an
earthen
tumulus
(
kofun
) at
Sakai
. Hanzei is
venerated
at a
memorial
Shinto
shrine
(
misasagi
) which is associated with the burial mound.
