Kamon is a crest that has been used since the Heian period to represent
one's origin (family lineage, lineage, pedigree, and status).
In an era when few people could read and write, family crests,
which could be recognized at a glance even if the family name was not readable,
were often used as a part of life, such as clothing,
furnishings, gates, and graveyards, in place of family names.
had been taken in.
Currently,
it is said that there are 241 types of family crests in Japan,
with more than 5,116 crests. Furnishings, weapons,
letters with geometric patterns, etc.
