Thanks. Interesting. Reminds me of some passages from Vallee in<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em> Passport to Magonia</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->:<br><br>The first official investigation of a UFO sighting occurred in Japan in 1235. During the night of September 24, while General Yoritsume and his army were encamped, they observed mysterious lights in the heavens. The lights were seen in the southwest for many hours, swinging, circling, and moving in loops. The general ordered a "full-scale scientific investigation" of these strange events. The report finally submitted to him as the "soothing" ring of many contemporary explanations offered for UFO phenomena. In essence it read: "The whole thing is completely natural, General. It is... only the wind making the stars sway."<br><br>...<br><br>"...on September 12, 1271, the famous priest Nichiren was about to be beheaded at Tatsunokuchi, Kamakura, when there appeared in the sky an object like a full moon, shiny and bright. Needless to say, the officials panicked and the execution was not carried out.<br><br>In 1361, a flying object described as being 'shaped like a drum, about twenty feet in diameter' emerged from the inland sea off Western Japan...<br><br>...on March 8, 1468, a dark object, which made a 'sound like a wheel,' flew from Mt. Kasuga toward the west at midnight." <br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.ufoevidence.org/documents/doc154.htm">www.ufoevidence.org</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> <p></p><i></i>

Trigrams

Notice the I-ching trigrams, representing elements, around what looks like a porthole.<br> I don't believe the Japanese used them and they would be Chinese or Korean in origin. Also, I've seen Koreans that have a redish tint to their hair. <p></p><i></i>
