Sadowara no bunguruma 佐土原のぶんぐるま spinning top making a sound
Made by Hyoodo Masakazu 兵頭正一 Hyodo Masakazu.
bunguruma is a spinning top that makes a sound (bun), a kind of unarigoma うなりごま.
During the spring fair of Sadowara many farmhouses sold them to the visitors, so they were also called
harugoma 春ごま spinning tops of Spring
or
jindaikoma 神代こま spinning top "for the age of the Gods".
The father of Masakazu began to sell them regularly and gave them this name.
In Kyushu there are many kinds of unarigoma うなりごま spinning tops that make a sound, made of bamboo covered with paper, then smoked with pine branches to make them strong. From the oil of the bamboo and the pines they become all black and when the paper is taken off, some patterns appear. The top and bottom are then laquered in red and make a nice contrast with the black body.

jindaigoma, jindai no koma 神代独楽 spinning top making a sound
They were made by the lowly samurai to earn a living. They are hollow bamboo pieces and have an opening at the side to make a sound. As a pattern they feature the clan kamon 家紋 family crest of the Satsuma.
The kamon is put on the green bamboo and then all is blackened over a smoky fire. Thus the kamon later shines green and the top is polished black.
Since it is something "to enjoy alone 独楽", it is given to a boys at the festival on May 5.

Sadowara ningyoo 佐土原人形 dolls from Sadowara
The history of Sadowara dolls goes back at least 400 years. Color is applied using mud and earth pigments, and the simple folk-style of these dolls continues to warm the heart.

Since Kabuki was popular in this region, there are many Kabuki actor dolls. Often two or three make a group (組み物人形).

The Battles of Coxinga 国姓爺合戦 Kokusen'ya Kassen
is a puppet play by Chikamatsu Monzaemon. It was his most popular play: first staged on November 26, 1715, in Osaka, it ran for the next seventeen months, far longer than the usual few weeks or months. Its enduring popularity can largely be attributed to its effectiveness as entertainment: its many scenes over a period of more than seven years follow the adventures of Coxinga (based on the adventures of the real historical figure Koxinga; as the play is loosely based on real history, it is a jidaimono play, not a domestic play) in restoring the rightful dynasty of China and features effects uniquely suited for the puppet theater, such as the villain Ri Tōten gouging out an eye (ostensibly to prove his loyalty); in addition, Donald Keene suggests that the adventures in exotic China played well in isolationist Tokugawa Japan.
