Kunimi (practice)
The ancient Japanese practice of , ''lit.'' "viewing the realm", involved climbing a mountain to survey the land, often before praising it in song. It is documented in the early chronicles the ''Kojiki'' and ''Nihon Shoki'' as well as in a number of poems in the Man'yōshū.
==Origins==
Close association with the Imperial House may suggest that ''kunimi'' was an agricultural rite imported from China; alternatively it may have been a folk practice.〔 The "blood relationship" between emperor and land gives ''kunimi'' added significance. The earliest documented occurrence was in 663 BC, when Emperor Jimmu ascended a mountain in Uda and spotted eighty bandits on Kunimi Hill; he is advised by the kami to subdue them by gathering clay from Mount Kagu and creating from it sacred vessels for propitiatory sacrifice accompanied by incantation.〔 In 630 Jimmu himself ascended the hill of Wakigami no Hohoma no Oka, viewed the land, and observed: "Oh! what a beautiful country we have become possessed of! Though a blessed land of inner-tree-fibre, yet it resembles a dragon-fly licking its hinder parts".〔 The imperial excursions of Emperor Ōjin and Emperor Yūryaku also led to ''kunimi''.〔
