English: Laws and ordinances which had been established under the Constitution of the Empire of Japan lost validity if they 'went against the provisions' according to the Article 98 of the Constitution of Japan.
Japanese: 大日本帝国憲法の下で成立した法令は、日本国憲法第98条により「その条規に反する」ものについて、同時に失効している。
English: Conversely, laws and ordinances which conformed to the provisions could be in effect even after the enforcement of the Constitution of Japan.
Japanese: また、同条の反対解釈により、日本国憲法の条規に反しない法令は、日本国憲法の施行日以降も効力を有する。
English: In cases that they were in effect, laws were treated as a law and diet's orders as a cabinet order, and ministerial orders as a ministerial order.
Japanese: 効力を有する場合、法律は法律として扱われ、閣令は内閣府令として、省令は省令として扱われる。
English: As for Imperial edicts, if they were related to laws, they were abolished after approving their temporary effect, and if they were not related to laws, they were treated as a government ordinance.
Japanese: 勅令は、法律事項を内容とするものは暫定的効力を認めた後失効させ、法律事項以外を内容とするものは政令として扱われた。
English: The Potsdam Orders such as the Price Control Ordinance was treated as a law or a cabinet order.
Japanese: 物価統制令などのいわゆるポツダム命令（ポツダム命令）は、法律または政令として扱われる。
English: Himiko (ca. 175- ca. 248) is said to have been a queen of Wa (Japan) who lived during the later Yayoi period.
Japanese: 卑弥呼（ひみこ、175年頃?-248年頃）は、日本の弥生時代後期における倭国の女王（倭王）とされる人物。
English: According to the 'Gishiwajinden' (literally, an 'Account of the Wa' in "The History of the Wei Dynasty"), Himiko confounded her people with magic.
Japanese: 「魏志倭人伝」によると、卑弥呼は鬼道（卑弥呼）で衆を惑わしていたという（卑彌呼事鬼道能惑衆）。
English: There are various opinions about this purported "magic," but no specific details are known.
Japanese: この鬼道（卑弥呼）や惑の意味には諸説あるが正確な内容については不明。
English: Supposedly, she was already old when she became queen, but did not have a husband--only a younger brother who helped her.
Japanese: 既に年長大であったが夫を持たず（年已長大無夫壻）、弟がいて彼女を助けていたとの伝承がある（有男弟佐治國）。
English: After she became queen, there were few people who saw her, and only one boy went in and out of her room to serve her food and drink.
Japanese: 王となってから後は、彼女を見た者は少なく（自爲王以來少有見者）、ただ一人の男子だけが飲食を給仕するとともに、彼女のもとに出入りをしていた。
English: Her palace and lookout tower were enclosed within the strong Josaku (an official defense site).
Japanese: 宮室は楼観や城柵を厳しく設けていた（唯有男子一人給飮食傳辭出入居處宮室樓觀城柵嚴設）。
English: It is said that when Himiko passed away, the Wajin (Japanese people) made a large mound that was more than 150 meters long; more than 100 slaves were killed and buried with her.
Japanese: 卑弥呼が死亡したときには、倭人は直径百余歩もある大きな塚を作り、奴婢百余人を殉葬したとされている（卑彌呼死去卑彌呼以死大作冢徑百余歩）。
English: According to the fourth volume of Sanshoteiki, the Wei-shu four of the fourth volume of Sanguo Zhi (the History of the Three Kingdoms), "In December [of 243], Himiko, a queen of Wa, sent an envoy."
Japanese: 『三国志』（三国志）の卷四魏書四三少帝紀第四には、正始四年に「冬十二月倭國女王俾彌呼遣使奉獻」とある。
English: In 173, Himiko, Queen of Wa, sent an envoy to acquire the friendship of Silla.
Japanese: 173年-倭の女王卑弥呼が、使者を送って、新羅に交際を求める（二十年夏五月倭女王卑彌乎遣使来聘）。
English: She was given an improvised gold seal of Shingi Wao and 100 bronze mirrors by the King of Wei (according to "Sanguo Zhi," this occurred in 238).
Japanese: 魏から親魏倭王の仮の金印と銅鏡100枚を与えられる（『三国志』では同二年（238年））。
English: A Daifang Commandery envoy of Wei visited Wakoku, offering the King of Wa an Imperial Rescript and an official seal.
Japanese: -帯方郡から魏の使者が倭国を訪れ、詔書、印綬を奉じて倭王に拝受させた。
English: The King of Wa sent eight people, including the high stewards Iseri and Yasuku, as envoys to Wei, during which Yasuku was given an official seal by the Lieutenant Colonel of the Imperial Guard.
Japanese: -倭王は大夫の伊聲耆、掖邪狗ら八人を復遣使として魏に派遣、掖邪狗らは率善中郎将の印綬を受けた。
English: Toyo sent 20 people, including Yasuku, to serve Chang Cheng in Wei, for which Yasuku brought 30 slaves, 5,000 white pearls, 2 strings of green jadeite, and 20 brocades with exotic patterns.
Japanese: 女王位についた壹与は掖邪狗ら20人に張政の帰還を送らせ、掖邪狗らはそのまま都に向かい男女の生口30人と白珠5000孔、青大句珠2枚、異文の雑錦20匹を貢いだ。
English: The Imperial Records of the Wei-shu, or "Sanguo Zhi," list Himiko as "俾彌呼," while other sources write her name as "卑彌呼," including the Record of Japan in the History of Wei, the Waden (or "Eastern Barbarians") in the "History of the Later Han Dynasty," Wakokuden (eastern barbarians) of the 46th biography in the 81st volume of "Suishu" (The Book of the Sui Dynasty), the Record of Various Barbarians in the Book of the Liang Dynasty, and the Shilla History of Samguk Sagi (the History of the Three Kingdoms).
Japanese: 『三国志』魏志倭人伝、『後漢書』の通称倭伝（『後漢書』東夷傳）、『隋書』の通称倭国伝（『隋書』卷八十一列傳第四十六東夷倭國）、『梁書』諸夷伝、『三国史記』新羅本紀では表記は「卑彌呼」、『三国志』魏書帝紀では「俾彌呼」と表記されている。
English: According to another account, "characters of contempt" were used for the names of foreign places and people as a result of Sinocentrism (Tsuneji HARADA, "Official History of Ancient Japan Based on the Materials before Kiki" Doshisha, Fujin Seikatsusha, 1976.)
Japanese: 一説には、中華思想により、他国の地名、人名には『蔑字』を使っているため、このような表記になっている原田常治『記紀以前の資料による古代日本正史』同志社・婦人生活社1976年。
English: It is also said that special characters were used to express a name's foreign origin to a Chinese perspective.
Japanese: また他の一説には、（中国から見て）単に外来語であることを表す目印として先頭の文字を特別なものとしているというものがある。
English: This is similar to the use of katakana characters in modern Japanese, which are used, for example, to write proper nouns from English or nouns from German.
Japanese: これは現代日本語でのカタカナの使用や英語での固有名詞の表記、ドイツ語での名詞の表記に似た方法である。
English: Today in Japan, Himiko is generally called 'Himiko,' but the precise pronunciation of those days is unknown.
Japanese: 現代日本語では一般に「ひみこ」と呼称されているが、当時の正確な発音は不明。
English: Considering Chinese pronunciations, for example, "呼" can be read as "wo" (as demonstrated in examples of writing Xiongnu, and so on), so there is an opinion that Himiko might have been pronounced "Pimiwo."
Japanese: 一方、中国語発音を考慮すると、当時の中国が異民族の音を記す時、「呼」は「wo」をあらわす例があり（匈奴語の記述例など）、卑弥呼は「ピミウォ」だったのではないかとする説もある。
English: There is even one theory that "Himiko" was meant to be pronounced "Bimifa," according to the Chinese of those days.
Japanese: 一方で、当時の中国語から「ビミファ」だったのではないかとする説もある。
English: Under that theory, "mifa" corresponds to "miwa" (god), as in Omiwa-jinja Shrine, while 'bi' can be considered a female honorific title ("bi" or "be"--"bi" means "sun," while "be" means "snake").
Japanese: その場合、「ミファ」は大神神社のミワに対応し「ビ」は、女性の尊称（ビ、ベ）、日あるいは蛇とも取れた。
English: Therefore, the name can be interpreted as himegami (female god), higami (sun god), or hebigami (snake god) (there are some evidences that it was interpreted as each of these).
Japanese: 姫神、日神、蛇神とも解釈できる（後世、そのように解釈された形跡がある）。
English: In any event, there is not enough evidence of Yayoi period Japanese or the Chinese of those days to be certain of the original pronunciation or translation of Himiko's name.
Japanese: いずれにせよ、弥生時代の日本語の発音および当時の中国語の音写の法則についてはまったく説が確立しておらず、したがってその意味も判然としない。
English: (It is, however, academically unsound to interpret the name according modern Japanese standards, as opposed to ancient Japanese phonology.)
Japanese: （少なくとも現代日本語で解釈するのは学術的に無意味であり、古代日本語の音韻論を基本に考察しなければならない。）
English: The Record of Japan in the History of Wei simply refers to the death of Himiko as follows: "Himiko passed away, and a large mound was made that was more than 150 meters long. More than 100 slaves were killed and buried in order to follow their master."
Japanese: 魏志倭人伝には、卑弥呼の死については「卑彌呼以死大作冢徑百餘歩狥葬者奴碑百餘人（卑弥呼は死に、直径100余歩の大きな塚が作られ、奴婢100余人が徇葬された）」とのみ書かれている。
English: The description before this depicts a conflict with Kunakoku that was reported by an envoy from the Yamatai Kingdom in 247.
Japanese: この前の記述は、247年（正始8年）に邪馬台国からの使いが狗奴国との紛争を報告したことに発する一連の記述である。
English: The year of Himiko's death was not mentioned in the record, and while the surrounding writings are also undated, it is unlikely that all of them occurred in the same year.
Japanese: 卑弥呼の死については年の記載はなく、その後も年の記載がないまま、1年に起こったとは考えにくい量の記述がある。
English: There is a strong possibility that they were recorded over several years, but opinions are divided on the year of Himiko's death, be it in 247, 248, or even later.
Japanese: そのため、複数年にわたる記述である可能性が高いが、卑弥呼の死が247年か248年か（あるいはさらに後か）については説が分かれている。
English: According to popular theory, "以" does not have a particular meaning, although due to the mention of "because she died" or "having already died," as well as the preceding sentence, "拜假難升米 爲檄告喻之" ("Nashime took an Imperial Rescript and a yellow flag, then issued a manifesto"), is thought that Himiko had already died by this point.
Japanese: 通説では、「以」に深い意味はないとするか、「死するをもって」つまり「死んだので」墓が作られた、あるいは、「すでに死す」と読み、直前に書かれている「拜假難升米爲檄告喻之」（難升米が詔書・黄憧を受け取り檄で告諭した）の時点で卑弥呼はすでに死んでいた、と解釈する。
English: On the other hand, under the translation "so she died," it can be interpreted that the cause of her death was a conflict with Kunakoku or Nashime's manifesto, which was written before this.
Japanese: 一方、「もって死す」つまり「だから死んだ」と読んだ場合、この前に書かれている、狗奴国との紛争もしくは難升米の告諭が死の原因ということになる。
English: The time of Himiko's death corresponds to a transition period between the Yayoi and Tumulus periods, and according to the Yamatai Kingdom Kinai theory, there is a possibility that Himiko's tomb was a tumulus.
Japanese: 卑弥呼の死んだ時期は弥生時代から古墳時代への移行期に当たり、邪馬台国畿内説では卑弥呼の墓は古墳の可能性がある。
English: Kuniji SAITO, an astronomer, claimed that a total eclipse of the sun over the northern part of Kyushu on the morning of September 5, 248 (according to Japan Standard Time; the 4th, according to Universal Time) had something to do with the death of Himiko.
Japanese: 天文学者の斎藤国治は、248年9月5日朝（日本時間。世界時では4日）に北部九州で皆既日食が起こったことを求め、これが卑弥呼の死に関係すると唱えた。
English: Moreover, Akira KITTAKA and Biten YASUMOTO pointed out that a total eclipse of the sun also occurred on the evening of March 24, 247, once again in northern Kyushu.
Japanese: さらに、橘高章と安本美典は、247年3月24日夕方にも北部九州で皆既日食が起こったことを指摘した。
English: Their theory states that Himiko's death was tied to the solar eclipse in 247, while Toyo's succession to the throne in place of a king was due to the solar eclipse in 248.
Japanese: また247年の日食が原因で卑弥呼が殺され、248年の日食が原因で男王に代わり壹与が即位したと唱えた。
English: These theories originate from the Yamatai Kingdom of northern Kyushu and the idea that Himiko was, in fact, Amaterasu Omikai (the Sun Goddess), though the two are not inseparably related.
Japanese: これらの説は、邪馬台国北九州説や卑弥呼・天照大神説と密接に結びついている（ただし不可分ではない）。
English: By today's astronomical calculations, however, these eclipses were actually only partial solar eclipses (though nearly full) over Kyushu Island and the whole Kinai District, both of which are presumed to be important territories within the Yamatai Kingdom.
Japanese: しかし、現在の正確な計算では、いずれの日食も、邪馬台国の主要な比定地である九州本島や畿内の全域で（欠ける率は大きいが）部分日食であった。
English: A partial solar eclipse is not entirely uncommon, so the relationship between a solar eclipse and the death of Himiko is easily questioned today.
Japanese: 部分日食は必ずしも希な現象ではないことから、日食と卑弥呼の死の関連性は疑問視されている。
English: Since the Edo period, there has been much debate about which records in the "Kojiki" (the Records of Ancient Matters) or the "Nihonshoki" (the Chronicles of Japan) can be identified with Himiko.
Japanese: 卑弥呼が、『古事記』や『日本書紀』に書かれている誰にあたるか、またあたらないかが、江戸時代ころから議論されていた。
English: Interpreting myth and legend as reflections of historical fact, however, can lead to support for any theory, which only paves the way to endless dispute.
Japanese: ただし現代では、神話伝説を歴史的事実の反映であるとして自説にあうようにそれらしく解釈することは水掛け論を生むばかりで、あまり有意義な議論とは考えられていない。
English: "The Record of Empress Jingu" that appears in the Nihonshoki has a quoted article concerning Himiko in the Record of Japan in the History of Wei.
Japanese: 『日本書紀』の「神功皇后紀」において、「魏志倭人伝」の中の卑弥呼に関する記事を引用している。
English: Until the Edo period, because of this record, it was thought that Himiko was, in fact, Empress Jingu.
Japanese: このため、江戸時代までは、卑弥呼イコール神功皇后だと考えられていた。
English: According to this theory, the Yamatai Kingdom was located in the Kinai District, which was under Yamato sovereignty (a political power in ancient Japan).
Japanese: この説にたてば、邪馬台国はヤマト王権が拠った畿内にあったことになる。
English: Norinaga MOTOORI and Shigenobu TSURUMINE advocated the "Forged Title" theory, which stated that Himiko, a female chief of Kumaso (a tribe living in the ancient Kyushu district), pretended to the throne of the Imperial court.
Japanese: 本居宣長、鶴峰戊申の説は卑弥呼は熊襲が朝廷を僭称したものとする「偽僣説」である。
English: Norinaga strongly believed that Japan had been an independent country since ancient times, and therefore to him, the article in the Record of Japan in the History of Wei that described Himiko's tribute to Wei as a fiefdom and appointed her as Queen of Wa was not acceptable.
Japanese: 宣長は、日本は古来から独立を保った国という考えを強く持っており、「魏志倭人伝」の卑弥呼が魏へ朝貢し、倭王に封じられたという記述は、宣長の受け入れられるものではなかった。
English: Considering the description in the Record of Japan in the History of Wei, Norinaga concluded that the Yamatai Kingdom was located in the Kyushu District, and a female chief of Kumaso was cultivating friendly relations with Wei under the pretense of Empress Jingu's envoy.
Japanese: 宣長は「魏志倭人伝」の記述から邪馬台国は九州にあったと結論し、九州の熊襲の女酋長が勝手に神功皇后の使いを偽って魏へ通交したと考えた。
English: Michiyo NAKA maintained that Himiko was a female chief of Kyushu, and had nothing to do with the Imperial Court or Empress Jingu.
Japanese: また、那珂通世は卑弥呼は九州の女酋であり朝廷や神功皇后とは無関係であるとする。
English: Takehiko FURUTA, who advocated the Kyushu Dynasty theory, claimed that there was a strong possibility that the ancestor of Tsukushi no Kimi, "Mikayori Hime," (Princess Mikayori) whose name was written in "Chikugo no Kuni Fudoki Itsubun" (a surviving fragment of the topography of Chikugo Province), was "Himika."
Japanese: 九州王朝説を唱えた古田武彦は、『筑後風土記逸文』に記されている筑紫君の祖「甕依姫」（みかよりひめ）が「卑弥呼（ひみか）」のことである可能性が高いと主張している。
English: He also claimed that "Iyo" (Toyo) was the first ruler of Wa, who assumed the Chinese-style name of "[Wa] Yo."
Japanese: また、「壹與（ゐよ）」（「台与」）は、中国風の名「（倭）與」を名乗った最初の倭王であるなどと主張している。
English: Konan NAITO, a representative scholar of Oriental history before the war, identified Yamato Hime no Mikoto (a princess of Emperor Suinin) as Himiko.
Japanese: 戦前の代表的な歴史家の一覧である内藤湖南は垂仁天皇の皇女倭姫命（やまとひめのみこと）を卑弥呼に比定した。
English: Mentions of Yamatototohimomoso Hime no Mikoto in the Nihonshoki and the Kojiki refer to the same individual.
Japanese: 倭迹迹日百襲媛命（やまとととひももそひめのみこと）は、『日本書紀』の倭迹迹日百襲姫命または倭迹迹姫命、『古事記』の夜麻登登母母曾毘賣命。
English: In recent years, among the various historical candidates, it is this woman who is most likely to, in fact, be Himiko.
Japanese: 近年、卑弥呼と同一人物として推定される候補の中では最有力の説となってきている。
English: The Hashihaka Tumulus, which is said to be the tomb of Yamatototohimomoso Hime no Mikoto according to the Nihonshoki, is located in the Makimuku ruins--a possible location of the Yamatai Kingdom.
Japanese: 『日本書紀』により倭迹迹日百襲媛命の墓として築造したと伝えられる箸墓古墳は、邪馬台国の都の有力候補地である纏向遺跡の中にある。
English: This particular tumulus is significant, as its size and enclosed Kibi style artifacts (an original form of "haniwa," or hollow clay figurines) seem to suggest that it served as a model for the later tumuluses all over Japan.
Japanese: 同時代の他の古墳に比較して規模が隔絶しており、また日本各地に類似した古墳が存在し、出土遺物として埴輪の祖形と考えられる吉備系の土器が見出せるなど、以後の古墳の標準になったと考えられる重要な古墳である。
English: The Hashihaka Tumulus is about 160 meters in diameter, which corresponds to the Record of Japan in the History of Wei, which states, "When Himiko passed away, the Wajin made a large mound that was more than 150 meters long."
Japanese: この箸墓古墳の後円部の大きさは直径約160mであり、「魏志倭人伝」の「卑彌呼死去卑彌呼以死大作冢徑百余歩」と言う記述に一致している。
English: Nihonshoki contains a legend of Yamatototohimomoso Hime no Mikoto marrying a deity of Mt. Miwa, as well as a tale that says the Hashihaka was "built by men during the day, and by gods during the night." Like Himiko, she was considered a mysterious woman.
Japanese: 『日本書紀』には、倭迹迹日百襲媛命について、三輪山の神との神婚伝説や、前記の箸墓が「日也人作、夜也神作」という説話が記述されており、卑弥呼と同様な神秘的な存在と意識されている。
English: She also acted as a shrine maiden to interpret divine will to Emperor Sujin, and had a relationship that corresponded to that between Himiko and her younger brother that was mentioned in the Record of Japan in the History of Wei: "She had a younger brother and ruled the country with his help."
Japanese: また崇神天皇に神意を伝える巫女の役割を果たしたとしており、これも「魏志倭人伝」の「男弟有り、佐（助）けて国を治む」（有男弟佐治國）という、卑弥呼と男弟の関係に一致する。
English: It has been said that the Hashihaka Tumulus was created between the end of the third century and the beginning of the fourth century, which does not match the period of Himiko's reign.
Japanese: 従来、上記の箸墓古墳の築造年代は古墳分類からは3世紀末から4世紀初頭とされ、卑弥呼の時代とは合わないとされてきた。
English: Recently, however, thanks to scientific dating techniques such as dendrochronology and radiocarbon dating, the start of the Kofun period has been considered earlier than previously thought.
Japanese: しかし最近、年輪年代学や放射性炭素年代測定による科学的年代推定を反映して、古墳時代の開始年代が従来より早められた。
English: Opinions concerning the Hashihaka Tumulus differ among scholars, though recently it is widely accepted that the tumulus was created between the mid-third century (which is close to the year of Himiko's death in 248) and the latter half of the third century.
Japanese: 箸墓古墳の築造年代についても、研究者により多少の前後はあるものの卑弥呼の没年（248年頃）に近い3世紀の中頃から後半と見る説が最近では一般的になっている。
English: There is a theory that Unabi Hime no Mikoto, the sixth-generation Hikohoakari mentioned in "A Family Tree of the Amabe Family," was Himiko.
Japanese: 『海部氏系図』に記される、彦火明六世孫、宇那比姫命（うなびひめ）を卑弥呼とする説。
English: The woman had another name, "Oyamato Hime," which suggests that she was a queen of Yamato sovereignty.
Japanese: この人は別名、大倭姫（おおやまとひめ）という大和王権の女王と思われる名を持っていた。
English: She was also called Amatsukuru Hime Mikoto, Oamahirume Hime no Mikoto, and Hime Mikoto.
Japanese: また、天造日女命（あまつくるひめみこと）、大海靈姫命（おおあまひるめひめのみこと）、日女命（ひめみこと）とも呼ばれる。
English: According to this theory, Toyo, who succeeded to the throne after Himiko, is identified with Amatoyo Hime, whose name was mentioned two generations after Unabi Hime no Mikoto in the family tree.
Japanese: またこの説では、卑弥呼の後に王位に就いたとされる台与（とよ）を、系図の中で、宇那比姫命の二世代後に記される、天豊姫（あまとよひめ）とする。
English: Apart from "A Family Tree of the Amabe Family," Tatsuya KOGA identified the 21st generation, "Ametsukuru Hime Mikoto," in the "Record of Kora," which was left in Kora Taisha Shrine with Himiko.
Japanese: 古賀達也は『海部氏勘注系図』とは別の高良大社に残る「高良記」系図にある二十一代目の「天造日女命」を卑弥呼と同定している。
English: Another theory supposes that, if she was important enough to make it into the Chinese history books, then Himiko's name should have been recorded as with equal mention within Japan, and it is only Amaterasu Omikami who held such status in the Japanese history books.
Japanese: 中国の史書に残るほどの人物であれば日本でも特別の存在として記憶に残っているはずであり、日本の史書でこれに匹敵する人物は天照大神（アマテラスオオカミ）しかないとする説。
English: Another name of Amaterasu was "Ohirumenomuchi"--this "ru" is an ancient equivalent of the preposition "no," which means "hirume" would become "hinome" ("sun woman") in modern Japanese.
Japanese: アマテラスの別名は「大日孁貴」（オオヒルメノムチ）であり、この「ヒルメ」の「ル」は助詞の「ノ」の古語で、「日の女」となる。
English: The translation would be, "a shrine maiden who serves the sun," which corresponds with Himiko ("a shrine maiden of the sun").
Japanese: 意味は太陽に仕える巫女のことであり、卑弥呼（陽巫女）と符合するとする。
English: Astronomical calculations have confirmed that total solar eclipses could have occurred on March 24, 247, and September 5, 248, in the vicinity of northern Kyushu where Himiko died (solar eclipses were observed in Yamato, but it is considered that they were not as clear as those in Kyushu).
Japanese: 卑弥呼の没したとされる近辺に、247年3月24日と248年9月5日の2回、北部九州で皆既日食がおきた可能性があることが天文学上の計算より明らかになっている（大和でも日食は観測されたが北九州ほどはっきりとは見られなかったとされる）。
English: Some people believe these eclipses correspond to the tale of Amaterasu hiding herself in Ama no Iwato (the Cave of Heaven), or Iwato Gakure, in Kiki-shinwa (this story is included in the Kojiki, the Nihonshoki, and mythology).
Japanese: 記紀神話に見る天岩戸にアマテラスが隠れたという記事（岩戸隠れ）に相当するのではないかという見解もある。
English: However, some people have recently questioned these astronomical calculations.
Japanese: ただし、過去の日食を算定した従来の天文学的計算が正しい答えを導いていたかについては近年異論も提出されている。
English: Biten YASUMOTO claims that, considering the average periods of the various emperors' reigns, the era of Himiko overlaps with the era of Amaterasu.
Japanese: 安本美典は、天皇の平均在位年数などから推定すると、卑弥呼が生きていた時代とアマテラスが生きていた時代が重なるという。
English: Another commonality is Himiko's younger brother, who played the role of delivering a divine message, much like Amaterasu's younger brother, Susanoo.
Japanese: また卑弥呼には弟がおり人々に託宣を伝える役を担っていたが、アマテラスにも弟スサノオがおり共通点が見出せるとしている。
English: (On the other hand, there is an opinion that Susanoo could have been the King of Kuankoku, which fought against the Yamatai Kingdom as a result of discord between Susanoo and Amaterasu.)
Japanese: （一方スサノオをアマテラスとの確執から、邪馬台国と敵対していた狗奴国王に比定する説もある。）
English: According to the Record of Japan in the History of Wei, after Himiko passed away, a king tried unsuccessfully to rule the country, so Toyo became Queen and brought the country to order.
Japanese: 魏志倭人伝には卑弥呼が死去した後、男王が立ったが治まらず、壹與が女王になってようやく治まったとある。
English: Toyo can be identified with Takuhatachiji Hime no Mikoto, a wife of Amaterasu's son, Amenooshihomimi.
Japanese: この卑弥呼の後継者である壹與（臺與）はアマテラスの息子アメノオシホミミの妃となった栲幡千千姫命（万幡豊秋津師比売）に比定できるとする。
English: In short, that story also tells of a male ruler (perhaps Himiko's son) who succeeded to the throne but could not settle the country, which resulted in his wife's ascent as a relay successor.
Japanese: つまり卑弥呼の死後男子の王（息子か?）が即位したが治まらず、その妃が中継ぎとして即位したと考えられる。
English: Incidentally, Yorozuhatatoyoakitsushi Hime (along with Amaterasu) was one of the three gods of the Naiku (the Inner Shrine) in Ise-jingu Shrine, which names her as a high-ranking god that cannot have been a mere wife of another god's son.
Japanese: ちなみにヨロヅハタトヨアキツシヒメは伊勢神宮の内宮の三神の一人であり（もう一人はアマテラス）、単なる息子の妃では考えられない程の高位の神である。
English: Yasumoto states that if Himiko was, in fact, Amaterasu, the Yamatai Kingdom would be Ten (according to the Nihonshoki) or Takamanohara (according to the Kojiki), which would mean that the Yamatai Kingdom was located in Kyushu, then moved to the Kinai region, where it became the Yamato Imperial Court (this is the theory of the Yamatai Kingdom being relocated to the East).
Japanese: 安本美典は、卑弥呼がアマテラスだとすれば、邪馬台国は天（『日本書紀』）または高天原（『古事記』）ということになり、九州にあった邪馬台国が後に畿内へ移動して大和朝廷になったとする（邪馬台国東遷説）。
English: A weak point of this theory is that the idea of the Sun Goddess as Kososhin (an Imperial ancestor) is not so old.
Japanese: この説に対する難点としては、そもそも「皇祖神たる太陽女神」なる観念そのものがさして古いとはいえない事である。
English: In fact, according to the record of the first Japanese envoy to the Sui Dynasty in China, which was not written in the Nihonshoki, but in the Suishu, the King of Wa took the Heavens and the Sun as brothers.
Japanese: 事実、『隋書』にあり『日本書紀』に記述がない第一回目の遣隋使（名前の記述なし）の記事には、倭国の倭王が天と日を兄と弟としていた（「俀王以天爲兄以日爲弟」）とある。
English: The theories mentioned above assume that Himiko is identifiable as a character in the Kiki, or old genealogies, but there are also opinions that insist this cannot be done, especially considering the state of the remaining records of ancient Japan.
Japanese: 以上の説は、「卑弥呼」に該当する人物が『記紀』や古系図に明確に特定できる形で残っているとする前提があるが、日本古代の記録の残存状況から考えると、そのようなことは期待できないとする説である。
English: Proponents of these theories claim that it is foolish to identify Himiko, whose very existence is questionable, to characters of myth and legend.
Japanese: 実在がはっきりしない卑弥呼を、神話的伝説上の人物に当てはめることは意味がない。
English: In the books and essays written by professional historians in recent years, no attempt is made to identify Himiko with a mythical and legendary personage.
Japanese: 近年専門の歴史学者によって書かれた書物・論文では、卑弥呼を神話伝説中の誰かにあてるような議論は行われていない。
English: The reason for this is that, upon examining historical materials on the process of creating the Kiki, it was found that the methods for keeping records (particularly the use of letters under Yamato sovereignty) used before Emperor Keitai are not reliable.
Japanese: その理由は、『記紀』の成立過程に関する史料批判が進み、ヤマト王権内部における文字使用状況から推測すると、継体天皇以前の伝承に信用を置くことはできないためである。
English: For example, the Kiki does not say anything about the battle against Koguryo in the depths of the Korean Peninsula (mentioned in the Gwanggaeto Stele), or about envoys of the Five Kings of Wa (despite the most important diplomatic issue in the fifth century being a relationship with Koguryo as Waobu's johyobun).
Japanese: 例えば、『記紀』の記述によると、広開土王碑が伝える朝鮮半島奥深くに侵入しての高句麗との戦闘は一切伝えられていないし、倭の五王の遣使も伝わらない（倭王武の上表文によると5世紀の最も重大な外交問題は対高句麗問題であるにも関わらず）。
English: According to today's archaeology, the Hashihaka Tumulus is the most probable resting place of Himiko, so Yamatototohimomoso Hime no Mikoto is considered the most likely person to be identified with Himiko.
Japanese: 現在の考古学は箸墓古墳を卑弥呼の墓の最有力候補と見ているから、倭迹迹日百襲媛命（やまとととひももそひめのみこと）は卑弥呼の有力な候補の1つと考えられる。
English: There is no reason to choose only this theory, of course, as different theories are otherwise reliable.
Japanese: ただ、それ以外のどの説も部分的に正しいといえるため、強いて1つに定める理由もない。
