Sifu Dr.
Minoru Hata
Founder-Director
Chinese Origins of Hata in Japan
- The Hata clan was an immigrant clan active in Japan since the Yamato period, according to the epic history Nihonshoki.
- Hata is the Japanese reading of the Chinese (state and dynasty) name given to the Qin Dynasty (the real family name was Ying), and given to their descendants established in Japan.
- The Nihonshoki presents the Hata as a clan or house, and not as a tribe; also only the members of the head family had the right to use the name of Hata.
