TitleStone marker indicating Yokoi Shōnan's place of assassination
Date Created1869-1999
SubjectAssassination, Japan--History--Restoration, 1853-1870, Kyoto (Japan), Yokoi, Shōnan, 1809-1869
DescriptionStone marker indicating Yokoi Shōnan (横井小楠)'s place of assassination, originally built in 1916. Note in Griffis's hand says: "No. 2 [this photograph] Photo of a stone post established to mark the spot where Yokoi was attacked and assassinated by 'zealots.'" The inscription on the post reads: "The place where Yokoi Shōnan was assassinated." On the other side, the names who contributed to the fund to put up the stone are inscribed--people of the city of Kyoto. This place is in Teramachi (meaning Temple or Church Street) a few steps from the outer wall of the imperial palace in Kyoto, and only two blocks from the "home" where late President Neesima used to live. It is right in the central part and a busy section of the city of Kyoto at present.
NoteThis project was funded by a grant from the New Jersey Historical Commission.
