NAME:  Hachiman


          DESCRIPTION
          Hachiman is the syncretic divinity of archery and war,
          although often called the Kami of war, he is more correct-
          ly defined as the tutelary Kami of warriors.  He is also the
          divine protector of Japan, its people, the Imperial House,
          the Minamoto clan and worshipped by samurai. The name
          means "Kami of Eight Banners", referring to the eight
          heavenly banners that signaled the birth of the di-
          vine  Emperor Ojin. His symbolic animal and messenger
          is the dove.
