was the 27th emperor of Japan,〔Imperial Household Agency (''Kunaichō''): ( 安閑天皇 (27) )〕 according to the traditional order of succession.〔Varley, Paul. (1980). ''Jinnō Shōtōki,'' p. 120; Titsingh, Isaac. (1834). 〕 No firm dates can be assigned to this emperor's life or reign, but he is conventionally considered to have reigned from 531–536.〔Ponsonby-Fane, Richard. (1959). ''The Imperial House of Japan,'' p. 44.〕 ==Legendary narrative== According to the ''Kojiki'' Ankan was the elder son of Emperor Keitai, who is considered to have ruled the country during the early-6th century, though there is a paucity of information about him.〔Kelly, Charles F. ( "Kofun Culture," ) ( Japanese Archaeology. ) April 27, 2009.〕 When Ankan was 66 years old, Keitai abdicated in favor of him. Ankan's contemporary title would not have been ''tennō'', as most historians believe this title was not introduced until the reigns of Emperor Tenmu and Empress Jitō. Rather, it was presumably ''Sumeramikoto'' or ''Amenoshita Shiroshimesu Ōkimi'' (治天下大王), meaning "the great king who rules all under heaven." Alternatively, Ankan might have been referred to as (ヤマト大王/大君) or the "Great King of Yamato." The most noteworthy event recorded during his reign was the construction of state granaries in large numbers throughout Japan, indicating the broad reach of imperial power at the time.〔Mason, Joseph. (2002). 〕 Ankan's grave is traditionally associated with the Takayatsukiyama kofun in Habikino, Osaka. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Emperor Ankan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
