Translation from Japanese page, 6/20/14

[edit]

I just translated most of the Japanese page on this subject as best I could, leaving a few sections that I found dubious or just too challenging. I have unfortunately introduced something of a mess of footnotes and citations and strange fusions of the two, as found in the original Japanese article. Because I have done an imperfect job here, I will note for future reference a few areas that could use correction or expansion:

  • There is no image in this article, but recovered probably-Hayato shields do exist and are apparently on display in some museums: a simple image search for 隼人楯 should reveal some. As far as I am aware, no such images are currently available on Commons, but it would be really great if we could get an image of one for this article.
  • I skipped a section describing the ceremonial role of the Hayato and their connections with various other families. This could still be translated.
  • Formatting is probably somewhat awkward.
  • Half of the footnotes probably belong in the main article, some of the footnotes may be ripe for deletion.
