		Because Funakoshi was born prematurely and was extremely small at birth, it was expected that he would not live long and was, therefore, sent, as was the custom in that culture, to his grandparents for the exceptional care only the experience of the older, wiser family members could provide.
		The year 1868 was also the birth of the Meiji Reformation in which the official class privilege was abolished; and, along with class privilege went the traditional topknot (a traditional hairstyle worn by the male members of the Samurai class).
		At age 21, Funakoshi took a job as a school teacher to provide support for his very large family.

	Armed Forces of the World About ruining Japanese culture - to USN-MID StrategyPage.com
		About your statement that Japanese culture was ruined by Meiji and post-WW2 modernizations, I strongly differ.
		What ruined part of Japanese culture was the early-17th century decision to totally close the country and its culture and answering the challenge of those strange long nosed white people by closing oneself out of history.
		On the other hand, the changes brought about by the Meiji reformation, just as by the post-WWII reformation (even if the latter was foreign-imposed) enabled the tackling of their problems by the Japanese, the birth of local responses, including e.g.

		Nihonjinron describes a discourse (ron) in and about Japan the topic of which is the Japanese people (nihonjin).
		Coming out of academic reflections that helped inform the Meiji reformation in the mid-nineteenth century, it later acquired its nationalist and racialist vocabulary through interaction with more global discourses on nation and race.

	Japanese Lore Associated with Orion
		While incorporation of a lunar calendar and later complete adoption of a Gregorian calendar in post Meiji era Japan led to more precise methods for determining times for planting and harvesting, many old farmers in rural agrarian areas still use methods that are centuries if not millennia old.
		Certainly, when it comes to the scientific understanding of astronomical phenomena, the assertion cannot be denied, as Japan (until the Meiji Reformation) was generally decades if not centuries behind scientific development both on the Asian continent and in the West.
		On the other hand, as history, archaeological evidence, and this review of lore indicates, Japanese were obviously not a people who blankly stared at their rice fields and never looked up nor a people who merely waited around to receive enlightenment from China or the West.

		It was considered a more spiritual sword art which concentrated on developing the mind as well as skill.
