With a total length of 1.2m, a width of 56cm and a height of 39cm, it is a stone (sandstone) tombstone of a well-balanced and beautiful shape called a semi-circular plastar (Kamaboko type). It is inscribed with ornate patterns of large flower crosses and small cuneishreds. The inscription is inscribed with \"FIRI SACYE MO XONE GOX IRAI 1610 IVG 16 QEICHO 15\" in Portuguese-style spelling Roman script, and is read as the burial's name \"Phiri Sakubei Diogo\" and his death \"16 October 1610 (Gyeongsang 15)\". It is the oldest inscription in Japan as an inscription in Roman script, and the oldest in Japan as both the year of the Christian era and the year of the early era are concurrent. This tombstone was discovered in the ground of the present Higashi Common Cemetery in 1929, and became a national designated historic site in 1959.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":82908,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"categories":[75],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-149625","travelpost","type-travelpost","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-spot"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/149625","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/travelpost"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/149625\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/82908"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149625"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=149625"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=149625"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
