(Heian Period)
784-1191
This is the time when aristocrats lived gracefully. The
women had beautiful kimonos and long hair which hung down their back. Since they
did not have the custom of taking a bath,they covered up their body odors with various
perfumes. They performed many annual rituals to ease their fear of ill luck or evil
spirits. Many books about heaven or hell were written during this period. |
