:That was the quick and ugly answer - hope it helped; I will add some more tonight. Might even add an article on Rokuyo, now that I think about it. Will raid the library at school. --[[User:JessicaT|KotomiT]]<sub>[[User talk:JessicaT|''User formerly known as JessicaT'']]</sub> 16:42, 18 August 2008 (EDT)

I think the only thing I left out was measuring the years. There were two methods - firstly a "long count" gong back to the time of Emperor Jimmu in 660 BC, the other - still used today - is to count the years of the Emperor's era. So 2008 can also be Heisei 20 and Shōwa 60 was 1985. Hope that helped answer the question - if not, please feel free to fire away. --[[User:JessicaT|KotomiT]]<sub>[[User talk:JessicaT|''User formerly known as JessicaT'']]</sub> 10:01, 19 August 2008 (EDT)
