The Harikikigaki [1568]

The "Harikikigaki" 針聞書 or "the book of needles" ‑ a 1568 tome about acupuncture & medical knowledge written by a resident of Ibaraki City, Osaka Prefecture, Japan. ‑ It's an incredibly valuable source of information about the way people used to think about illness in those days: the book is currently housed at Kyushu National Museum as a centre piece. (twitter: @kyuhaku_koho ) ‑ Its most popular for including 63 unique diagrams of "Shaku" Microbial/parasitic/germs/bug sized creatures thought to cause disease & Illness! ‑ it also lists treatments/cures for each!!

Below are hand-made stickers as lovingly researched; illustrated, designed & re-imagined by @ Sam Kalensky since 2018 & onwards! Please check out my full yokai section, and support my work for even more!
