	Emperors of Japan - SamuraiWiki
		The succession of Emperors as described in the Nihon Shoki and the Kojiki cannot be taken at face-value.
		Emperor Sujin is believed to have been the first "historical" Emperor (being the first Emperor to rule in the growing Yamato region) after the tribal confederacies that had held power previously--this does not mean, however, that he and those that followed did not have highly ficionalized lives.
		This assertion could very well apply to many other early Emperors, while others are most likely composite figures--an amalgamation of various important figures in early Japan.
