OJIN, EMPEROR OF JAPAN

Specialty Definition: Emperor Ojin of Japan

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Emperor Ōjin (応神天皇) was the fifteenth imperial ruler of Japan to appear on the traditional list of emperors. No firm date can be assigned to this emperor and he is regarded by historians as a "legendary emperor". This does not necessarily imply that no such person ever existed, just that there is insufficient material to assign him to a historical period.
