Hibasu-hime (日葉酢媛命) was the second and final wife of Emperor Suinin. She was empress consort from 15 BC until her death in 3 AD.[1][2] She was survived by her husband (who died in 70 AD).[3]
Life
Hibasu-hime was born as one of five daughters. Her father was summoned to the palace a few years after the death of the Emperor's first wife, Saho-hime. In August of the same year, she became empress consort.[4] Upon her death, the Emperor outlawed the practice of servants being buried alive during the funeral of the Empress. Instead, he started the practice of using Haniwa, to represent humans.[5][6]
