History of Japan
History and Culture Library / Ancient times when many human lives were lost due to epidemics. Was it just a natural disaster? The examples of repeated attacks on the cities of Nara and Heian, such as the Tempyo Pandemic when the four Fujiwara brothers were all destroyed, reveal the structural problems of the society at that time, such as urban environment, food production system, culture and ethics. While touching on the actual situation of the epidemic control measures and the death toll, we will look at the form of the epidemic which can be called the "neighbor" of human society.
