"Idumoyasugibushi?"

edit

Are you sure it's not "Izumoyasugibushi," or "Idzumoyazugibushi?" Seems a bit inconsistent to have "du" but not "si" don't you think?180.5.144.66 (talk) 15:43, 13 May 2010 (UTC) think so too — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.206.100.29 (talk) 19:45, 12 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

This is the old name for (part of) Shimane, not Iwate. Need to work out which was famous for its iron industry... Imaginatorium (talk) 04:51, 6 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Can't speak to Shimane, but Iwate was, and still is, famous for its ironworks. See also https://iwachu.co.jp/about/ (in Japanese), a page on the website of an iron foundry in Morioka. According to them, Morioka has been known for its cast iron since at least the Edo period. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 23:12, 26 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
