Adding languages is the easy part. Keeping quality stable while your company grows fast, your release cadence accelerates, and AI changes the product surface every week is where globalization teams earn their keep.In this episode, we sit down with Cristina Núñez, Senior Manager of Globalization at ŌURA, to unpack how a small localization team supports global product launches across 21 languages without simply hiring its way out of the problem. We talk about the shift from “startup knowledge in people's heads” to a scalable localization operating model built on documentation, clear workflows, stronger handoffs, predictable planning, and systems that can carry the load.

Piše Tjaž Mihelič, bereta Igor Velše in Eva Longyka Marušič. Trojni enačaj, ki zaznamuje naslov knjige Čas ≡ prostor komparativista in enega najprodornejših raziskovalcev kosoveliane Janeza Vrečka, nas postavlja v osrčje novega branja Srečka Kosovela. Matematični znak ≡ se bere kot »je identično« in torej ne pomeni istega stanja kot pri dvojnem enačaju, ki pomeni »je enako«. Razlikujeta se v tem, da slednji predpostavlja dve pojavnosti z enako vrednostjo, trojni enačaj pa med dve pojavnosti vnaša enopomenskost, eno ima zdaj še drugo ime, ki je s prvim popolnoma skladno, identično, eno. V našem primeru je naslov monografije povzet iz Kosovelove misli: »Čas in prostor je samo dvoje relacij relativnosti v kozmičnem prostoru, ki je sinteza čas ≡ prostor. Nova mistika, mistika časo-prostora.« Razumevanje časa, ki je prostor, in obratno v luči kvantne mehanike, je zaznamovalo Kosovelovo razumevanje poezije. Enost stvari se je prelila v njegov, lahko rečemo njegov, konstruktivizem, ki ni le umetniška smer, ampak način življenja. Enost stvari je bila njegova zahteva, poziv: enost človeka in »prirode«, vsebine in oblike, kozmosa in prostora. »Črke rasto v prostor,« je zapisal. Vrečkov izziv pri predstavitvi Kosovela ni samo lotiti se ga kot pesnika, temveč tudi kot izjemnega misleca. Namen monografije je zlasti slednji. Vrečko je monografijo je zasnoval skozi 10 poglavij in uvod. Ta nas prav zares uvaja, saj avtor v njem predstavlja svoje zasnove za pričujoče delo, v obrisih začrta poteze, ki jih nato skozi knjigo jasneje izriše, svojo raziskavo pa sopostavi k drugim raziskavam Srečka Kosovela. Ob tem se mi zdi vredno izpostaviti njegov odnos do korifeje slovenske primerjalne književnosti Antona Ocvirka. Če je šlo, kot sam pravi, v njegovi monumentalni pregledni monografiji o Srečku Kosovelu iz leta 2011 za nekakšno apologijo Ocvirka, ki ga je prvi povezal s konstruktivizmom, tu do njega vzpostavi distanco in opozori tudi na njegove zmote. Pri tem se na primer ustavi pri njegovi izdaji Integralov. V uvodu tudi jasno zapiše, da so se danes uveljavljeni pojmi kvantne mehanike pojavili večinoma po Kosovelovi smrti, tako da moramo biti pri njihovi aplikaciji na Kosovelovo poezijo previdni. Omenja pa, da jih je Kosovel »zaznaval«, »intuitivno prišel do spoznanj, ki so bila blizu spoznanjem Plancka, Einsteina, Bohra in drugih fizikov. Kako rešiti nastalo zagato?« Deset nadaljnjih poglavij bi lahko razdelili na tri dele. Poglavji Kosovelove definicije konstruktivizma in Spopad med Kosovelom in Černigojem prinašata splošnejše opazke o Kosovelovem konstruktivizmu ter zlasti slednje postavlja Kosovela ob bok njegovim sodobnikom in primerja njihovo dojemanje konstruktivizma z njegovim. V sedmih preostalih poglavjih Vrečko interpretira konkretne pesmi in iz njih izpeljuje Kosovelovo razumevanje kvantne mehanike. Podrobneje se ukvarja z njegovim manifestom Mehanikom in ga poveže z njegovimi protomanifesti ter kanoniziranimi pesmimi Kalejdoskop, Monolog, Sferično zrcalo, Srce v alkoholu, Kons 5 in Tragedija na oceanu. Tretji del monografije pa predstavlja zadnje poglavje z naslovom Sam moram vse dopolniti, v katerem se loteva Kosovelove bolezni in smrti, njegovega odnosa do komunistične partije, sodelovanja z organizacijo TIGR in razumevanja revolucije. Najprej bi želel spregovoriti o podnaslovu Ob stoti obletnici smrt Srečka Kosovela, ki ni posrečeno izbran. Knjiga je res izšla v njegovem letu in bo tako zasluženo deležna več pozornosti, kot bi je bila verjetno zunaj tega, vendar presega nekakšno jubilejno izdajo. To lahko izberemo iz avtorjeve pisave, saj gre za pionirsko delo tako v Kosovelovem primeru kot tudi sicer. Po branju monografije ne moremo več brati Kosovela, kot smo ga doslej. Po drugi strani pa prinaša navdihujoče branje pri povezovanju umetnosti z znanostjo in nudi tudi svojevrstno metodološko oporo za drugačno branje pesmi tudi drugih avtorjev. Boljši podnaslov bi bil tako takšen, ki bi nas dejansko usmerjal na vsebino, kazal v notranjost dela. Kvantna prepletenost, ki bi jo Kosovel lahko zaznaval, z njim pa korespondiral njegov pojem prozornosti iz pesmi Prerojenje (»Sam, sam, sam moram biti, / vsako telo neprozorno v prozornost preiti«) je ves čas prisotna. Tudi prepletenost sicer je značilnost monografije. Vrečko k posameznim vzorčnim pesmim vpleta številne druge Kosovelove pesmi, aforizme in mnoga znanstvena dela. Kdaj do onemoglosti, kdaj do vrtenja časa. Kaj želim reči? Da se mi je ob branju monografije večkrat zazdelo, da berem že argumentirane stvari, ki so zdaj spet še enkrat argumentirane, da berem aforizme, ki so že korespondirali s prejšnjimi ugotovitvami. Ob njih pa fizikalne dokaze zanje, ki so bili objavljeni mnogo pozneje. Ali je denimo »mistična luč teorije« res v povezavi z Bohrovo atomsko mistiko, kot so drugi imenovali njegovo interpretacijo fizike leta kasneje? Ali Kosovel piše »prav o tem« – čeravno pojave samo zaznava – torej o singularnosti, točki z neskončno gostoto, ki nastane pri črnih luknjah, v kateri se čas ustavi, ko beremo verz: »Ura večnosti se je premaknila v Nič.« Neposredno zatem pa droben citat iz knjige slovenskega filozofa Marka Uršiča, ki ga ob tej sopostavitvi ne morem brati kot dokaz k izpeljani temi. Kot bralec si želim več prostora, ki bi znal zajeti in biti, se imenovati čas. Več prostora, s tem mislim na daljše odlomke pesmi, na daljše citate, če ti podpirajo tako pomembne teze. Ob tem bi si želel več časa, historične perspektive, a nikakor ne historizma. Nekaj tega bi bilo v obstoječem besedilu mogoče navesti namesto komparativističnega navajanja med besedilom z zgodovinarskimi opombami pod črto, kjer bi bil izpisan celoten bibliografski podatek, za katerega bi vedel, kdaj je izšel. Pri pesmih bi si kot bralec želel izpostavitve tega, kar lahko najdemo v povezavi s kvantno mehaniko pri določeni pesmi, ob koncu pa sklepno poglavje, ki bi povzelo glavne ugotovitve Kosovelovega »zaznavanja« teh pojavov v pesmih. Pomembni študiji to pritiče, zlasti takšni. Morda najbolj nazoren primer tega je v uvodu izpisana množica Kosovelovih doslej neinterpretiranih zapisov, primer tega je v začetku kritike naveden. Nekateri v nadaljevanju dobijo svojo časovnost, drugi ne. A če se vrnem h kvantni prepletenosti, je monografija kažipot, namig, ki ga razume dobronamerni bralec, drugačnega pisanja. Janez Vrečko v monografiji Čas ≡ prostor postavlja nove temelje za razumevanje Kosovelove poezije in poezije, umetnosti sicer. S tem pa tudi podlago za nove interpretativne izzive. Ponuja nam metodološki in epistemološki zgled. Ponuja nam, rečeno s Kosovelom, dejanje, gibanje vseskozi. Od nas zahteva naše lastno dejanje. Ne biti dani na dvoje, ampak biti eno.

Justin Huhn, Founder and Publisher of the Uranium Insider, joins me for yet another very comprehensive macro update on the supply and demand fundamentals for uranium and the nuclear fuel sector.  Justin provides some boots-on-the-ground feedback, after just recently attending the  WNFM 52nd Annual Meeting and International Conference on Nuclear Fuel in Scottsdale, Arizona. We discuss primary versus secondary demand, how the longer-term contracting cycle is setting up with utility companies, different bottlenecks in the nuclear fuel cycle, and how he is positioning in the uranium equities that feed the front-end of that supply chain.   This is a longer-format discussion building upon our prior conversations throughout 2024 and 2025, because even more key macro news and company developments continue to be announced in the nuclear and uranium sector.   We start off reviewing the Primary Demand drivers for uranium from the existing global fleet of nuclear reactors, which is augmented by the many reactor life extensions and restarts, as well as all the new reactors coming online over the next decade that are under construction or planned.  The investing case for uranium bulls is compelling even with conservative modeling on this primary demand out for the next 5-10 years.   Next we layer on the various aspects of Secondary Demand that are harder to model,  but will definitely have an additive effect on overall global uranium demand:   Financial demand from entities like the Sprott Physical Uranium Trust, Yellowcake, hedge funds, institutional buyers, etc… Sovereign stockpiles and strategic reserves Utility companies inventory stockpiles Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) demand Military demand   Next we transition over the supply side of the equation focusing on the uranium mining companies. We've seen a flurry of news the last couple years out of the U308 producers, many of which have been struggling to ramp up production. Justin unpacks his outlook on mined supply from Kazatomprom, the largest uranium swing producer in Kazakhstan, the slow ramp up of Uzbekistan production, missed guidance last year from Canadian senior uranium producer Cameco (CCO.V) (CCJ), and the slow but steady ramp up of US producers. Each country and the producing entities have had a series of setbacks and challenges to hit their annual guidance, which has kept supply and inventories tight.     Next we point out that large development projects in the Athabasca Basin of Canada, like the Phoenix Project held by Denison Mines (TSX: DML) (NYSE: DNN), and in specific the importance of the Arrow Project from NexGen Energy (TSX: NXE) (NYSE: NXE), seeing their production timelines get pushed back to 2030 or later. There is very little new supply coming online globally, with the exception of some smaller production out of the US, Namibia, and Australian producers. All of this points to a much more constrained output from global uranium producers, even in face of growing uranium demand.   Justin weighs in on the importance of seeing more developers and explorers move their projects forward, and that the exploration stocks in particular have been left for dead by investors and represent compelling value propositions in this current environment.   Wrapping up we discuss the utility and diversification with some of the sector ETFs like (URA), (URNM), (URNJ), and (NUKZ), and the interesting potential buy-the-dip moment in the nuclear stocks, while the markets are quiet with less speculative participation.   Click here to visit the Uranium Insider website.     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

3 évvel ezelőtt tettünk egy próbát arra, hogy feltárjuk a Tolkien-adaptációkban rejlő lehetőségeket és kihívásokat.

Černobil, Sovjetska zveza, 26. april 1986. Ura je 1:23 ponoči. V jedrskem reaktorju pride do parne eksplozije, ki raztrga pokrov in odpre sredico. Sledi še druga, močnejša eksplozija, ki uniči zgornjo zaščitno plast iz jekla in betona. Oblasti nesrečo sprva zamolčijo. Svet zanjo izve šele dva dni pozneje, ko nad Evropo zaznajo povišano radioaktivnost. Radioaktivni oblak zajame velik del celine. Tudi v Sloveniji, približno 1300 kilometrov od Černobila, zavlada negotovost. Meritve pokažejo povišane ravni radioaktivnega joda in cezija. Najhujše posledice pa so čutili — in jih še danes čutijo — prebivalci širšega območja v današnji Ukrajini. S strokovnjaki in poznavalci analiziramo takratno dogajanje ter posledice nesreče po štirih desetletjih, prinašamo pričevanja in arhivske posnetke. Razmišljamo tudi o jedrski energiji — med dediščino nesreč in učinkovitim energetskim virom.Sogovorniki: Dr. Luka Snoj (jedrski fizik, Institut 'Jožef Stefan'), dr.

Isso só prova o compromisso da mangaká com a autenticidade histórica]; [Os conhecimentos da Maomao são reais, baseados na medicina tradicional chinesa, como o uso de ingredientes descritos no compêndio de matéria médica chinês, o “Bancao Gangmu”, escrito por Li Shizhen no século XVI]; [Enfeites de cabelo como códigos sociais, que demonstram status, função ou até mesmo mensagens ocultas]; [O mistério a respeito de Jinshi ser ou não eunuco é histórica, alguns oficiais protegiam sua identidade se dizendo eunucos – mas não significa que ele o seja. Na China imperial, alguns eunucos detinham mais poder político que alguns ministros]; [Os fãs estão pressionando a mangaká para desenvolver melhor o romance entre a Maomao e o Jinshi – isso inclui até mesmo a família dela. Mas ela reforça que o foco continuará a ser mistérios e intrigas palacianas]; [Segundo o site “O Vício” no dia 27/06/25, a autora disse ter vários anúncios para a série, o que pode significar expansão da série como a conhecemos].

Solidroad, the AI platform that helps companies evaluate and improve every human and AI customer conversation, has announced a $25 million Series A round. Led by global investment firm Hedosophia, and supported by First Round Capital and Y Combinator, this funding round marks a milestone in Solidroad's growth as enterprises look for new ways to ensure quality across their support operations. Building off the momentum of their seed round, led by First Round Capital in June 2025, Solidroad will use this recent round of funding to expand its teams across San Francisco and Dublin, furthering the platform's role as a leader in quality assurance (QA) for customer support. "We turn every customer interaction into measurable insight," said Solidroad co-founder and CEO Mark Hughes. "While most company support interactions go unreviewed, our platform evaluates them at scale, holding every interaction to a high quality standard to ensure customers feel supported. This funding enables us to expand our team and capabilities so more companies can make exceptional service the standard, not the exception." Solidroad strengthens customer experience (CX) through AI-powered training and quality insights. It reviews 100% of a company's customer interactions and generates insights that help support teams reduce manual quality assurance work, resulting in significantly higher customer satisfaction. The platform also uses these insights to create personalised training simulations to address areas of improvement for agents. This helps teams improve quality while keeping QA costs from rising when ticket volume grows. "We've built Solidroad to make sure every customer interaction becomes something teams can learn from," said Solidroad co-founder and CTO Patrick Finlay. "By evaluating conversations at scale, we're able to define what high-quality support looks like and apply that standard consistently across both human and AI agents. This funding allows us to expand those capabilities and bring that level of visibility and improvement to even more companies." Since launching in 2023, Solidroad has grown its customer base with brands including Ryanair, ?URA, and Crypto.com. Customers use the platform to automate QA coverage, reduce manual review hours, accelerate agent onboarding, and drive higher customer satisfaction scores through continuous, data-driven coaching. Additionally, Solidroad's AI analyses hundreds of conversations in seconds, making it ideal for companies managing high interaction volumes and scaling support teams. To date, Solidroad's platform has scored millions of interactions and increased analyst productivity by up to 10x. "AI is transforming how companies handle customer support, but maintaining consistent quality is still a huge challenge," said Andrew Smyth, Partner at Hedosophia. "Solidroad brings the needed visibility and oversight to every interaction, helping support teams continuously improve. We're excited to back a platform that is helping companies scale their support, while ensuring the customer experience is the main priority." This funding round reflects growing demand from CX and operations leaders to scale support quality without scaling headcount. Solidroad automates quality assurance across customer interactions and turns insights into targeted coaching, so quality, consistency, and speed improve as volume grows, whether interactions are handled by humans, AI, or both.

Hiába a Gyűrűk Ura és a Hobbit trilógia népszerűsége, nem Peter Jackson volt az első, aki filmvászonra vitte Középföldét. És nem is Ralph Bakshi, vagy Rankin/Bass.

Peter Jackson a Tolkien Olvasás Napján jelentette be, hogy Stephen Colbert részvételével készül a legújabb Gyűrűk Ura film, a The Shadow of the Past, vagyis A múlt árnyéka.

Dióhéjban így lett hivatalos söre Gyűrűk Ura sörkollekciója a magyar kézműves sörfőzdének, de Szilágyi Tamás alapító-ügyvezető és Sefcsik Márton üzletfejlesztéssel foglalkozó „mindenes” azt is elmesélte, miért érzik úgy, hogy akkorra lettek rocksztárok, amikorra azok már kihaltak.

Tolstoy brings you back from Andrei's spiritual revelation to focus on Nicholas Rostov, who is imbued with the Confidence of Youth.   General Bagratión had assented to Rostov's request to be brought off the reserve line and selected him for a fool's errand – as Bagratión is presented as understanding the futility of the attack.This is in contrast to Prince Dolgorúkov, part of Alexandr's inner circle, who felt victory was ordained. Dolgorúkov holds much of the blame for this debacle as reports indicate that he told Alexandr it would be cowardice to avoid confrontation.Rostov is to be sent to either Kutuzov or the Emperor, who are thought to be near the Pratzen Heights, under the rubric of seeking guidance on how to advance. However, Bragratión knows that the distance the messenger would cover would likely have him killed or never be able to deliver the message. Rostov perceived no such danger and was overjoyed to be selected. He serves the literary vehicle that brings you through a historic military folly. Nicholas moved along Bagratión's troops and then came upon General Feodor Uvárov's revered cavalry, where he noticed fine horseman preparing for battle. Uvárov commanded a reserve force of the Imperial Guard. As Rostov moved passed them, the sound of cannon and musketry was growing louder.   Around Pratzen, volleys of musketry and cannon from the slopes merged into a general roar. Rostov took it in, including the sight of masses of infantry moving in all directions and getting into action.  Soon came first sign of trouble, which didn't really register -- there were Uhlans, a light calvary unit, in disordered ranks retreating from an attack.  At that point Tolstoy has Rostov sense the rolling thunder of Uvárov's famous charge. He perceived the thud of hooves and jingle of weaponry. As Rostov turned toward the horsemen in the open expanse of field he shared, he realized there was a stampede headed straight toward him. He barely gets out of their way amidst the order to charge.The look of these men was of complete earnestness. Yet the reality was most were headed to their demise. Rostov had to turn his horse and briefly join them, to avoid getting crushed. One of the last to pass scowled at what he considered an idiot impeding the way. As the calvary passed, he could here the common chant of “Ura!” He got his bearings and soon noticed much of the calvary likely reached their destination as their ranks were mixed with some foreign cavalry. He could see nothing more, as smoke from cannon fire enveloped everything and he continued on.   Tolstly points out, in a nod to military history that this brilliant charge amazed the French themselves – and for a few moments broke the French infantry and captured a regimental eagle. Rostov was afforded the luxury of envying doomed men he thought glorious. He considered that while these men had positions of honor, he may get to see the Emperor again. Through a mix of men running about and cannon fire, he heard a voice he recognized as Boris. Boris shared the elated smile of a vane young man who survives fire for the first time and relayed his own success story, that his Imperial Guard unit unexpectedly got into action after they took fire and drove the French back. Rostov soon reveals how he is delivering a letter to “His Majesty.” He clarifies he means Alexandr, not the nearby Grand Duke, who commands the Guard. Their common friend Berg gets in this mix and the three are united. Berg cannot stop bragging about a minor wound to his hand, referencing his own lineage from a warrior class of German knightsWhen Rostov extricated himself from this reunion reality soon hit. It was all coming together – the retreating Uhlans, Boris's unit involved in action, and the French getting behind parts of his army around Pratzen. He later learned that large sections of Russian and Austrian soldiers had been firing at one another. When he again observed Russian and Austrian forces running in confused crowds, he was seized by a panic and started to sense the battle was lost. He realized how many were dying and that perhaps he would meet the same end.Rostov heard, in different languages, blame being cast.  He considered, “My God! What does it all mean?” He could not believe these soldiers could act so dishonorably when the Emperor might see them. Finally, he noticed French cannons and troops on the Pratzen Heights themselves, in the spot where he had been ordered to look for Kutuzov.

Simon and Dan return with the second half of their deep dive into 50 Ways to Invest in the AI Revolution. While Part 1 covered the obvious giants—semiconductors, hyperscalers, pure-play AI software, enterprise apps, and data center REITs—this episode looks at some of the less obvious but equally important beneficiaries of AI. From utilities and grid infrastructure to commodities like uranium, copper, and natural gas, they explore the backbone powering AI’s massive energy demand. They also dig into healthcare, cybersecurity, IT consulting, and industrial automation—sectors where AI is already improving efficiency, margins, and innovation in ways most investors overlook. Once again, they highlight dozens of companies and ETFs across these subsectors, balancing both the opportunities and the risks. If you’re wondering how to get diversified AI exposure beyond the usual suspects like NVDA and MSFT, this episode is packed with fresh angles and ticker ideas.

Singapore is on track to hit super-aged status next year, and the housing market is bracing for change. Hosted by Michelle Martin, today’s show dives into the launch of Perennial Living’s private luxury assisted living project in Kovan, with monthly fees from $8,900 to $17,000. Will this premium model succeed alongside government-led Community Care Apartments, or remain a niche for the ultra-wealthy? We explore the demand, risks, and investor opportunities in this emerging sector. Plus, Michelle and Ivan Cai, CEO, Crestbrick discuss whether more private developers could follow, and what the government’s role should be. Finally, the conversation shifts to Kampong Bugis, a 4,000-home waterfront precinct in the URA’s Draft Master Plan 2025, and why this new approach to development could reshape investor strategies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of All Quiet on the Second Front, Tyler sits down with Geoff Wylde, VP and General Manager of ŌURA to talk about what happens when consumer tech collides with national security.What started as a global health project in 2019 quickly became a breakthrough for the U.S. military: using the ŌURA Ring to predict illness, monitor fatigue, and give commanders and operators real-time insight into readiness. Since then, the technology has scaled across the Air Force and Navy, shaping how units think about human performance, privacy, and resilience in the field.In this episode, they unpack:How wearables move from lifestyle data to mission-critical intelligenceThe balance of privacy, security, and usability in defense settingsLessons from embedding commercial tech directly with operatorsWhy the next edge isn't just faster hardware, but healthier, more resilient peopleConnect with GeoffLinkedIn: Geoff WyldeConnect with TylerLinkedIn: Tyler Sweatt

Thanks to improved accuracy and new form factors, wearables have evolved from novelty step counters to tools that can predict illness, nudge healthier behaviors, and even influence alcohol consumption. But can they really bridge the gap between consumer wellness and enterprise healthcare?In this episode, ŌURA CEO Tom Hale discusses the lessons his team has learned from developing one of the most widely used health-tracking devices. We explore what draws people to wearables, what sustains their engagement, and how these tools may be shaping behavior and healthcare itself. We cover:

Melvin from PropertyLimBrothers dives into the pre-catalyst opportunity framework—an approach that identifies growth zones before catalysts are fully realised. Using examples from project performances in Lentor and Bayshore, Melvin analyses how early developments around future MRT lines or major townships can offer strategic entry points before prices are driven by demand.   The discussion also introduces the concept of the double catalyst PSF push—a scenario where both new launches and resale properties experience a price acceleration due to surrounding transformation. Key distinctions between freehold resale and 99-year leasehold new launches are examined through buyer psychology, lease decay, and audience size, highlighting why quantum and PSF play different roles depending on the property's profile.

Interview withGreg Huffman, CEO of Nuclear FuelsColin Healey, CEO of Premier American Urnaium Inc.Recording date: 21st July 2025The merger between Premier American Uranium and Nuclear Fuels represents a significant consolidation in the US uranium exploration sector, creating what executives position as America's leading exploration and development platform. Nuclear Fuels shareholders will receive 41% ownership of the combined entity, bringing $14 million in cash from their November 2024 financing round to support aggressive exploration programs.The combined company will operate the largest exploration drilling programs of any non-production uranium company in the United States. The Kaycee project in Wyoming alone has committed to over 100,000 feet of drilling in 2025, building on successful 2024 results that included both resource expansion and new discoveries. The project carries an exploration target of 11.5 to 30 million pounds of uranium, while the Cyclone project targets 8-12 million pounds. Combined with existing 43-101 compliant resources at the Sevieta project in New Mexico, the portfolio provides diversified exposure across the development spectrum.Both Wyoming projects benefit from critical proximity to existing licensed uranium processing facilities. Kaycee sits within 20 miles of Christensen Ranch and Nichols Ranch processing facilities, while Cyclone is positioned 12-14 miles from Lost Creek and Sweetwater Mill. This infrastructure access could significantly accelerate development timelines through satellite operations or toll milling arrangements, potentially providing faster cash flow generation compared to building standalone processing facilities.CEO Colin Healey noted the strategic advantage: "11.5 million pounds to me is beyond critical mass to be a satellite. I think that 2-3 years from now when those resources are probably potentially being delineated, the existing processing facilities in the US looking for feed and possibly expansion because there's going to be a push to grow uranium production in the US."The combined entity benefits from significant institutional support, including backing from Sachem Cove, IsoEnergy, and Mega Uranium. Nuclear Fuels maintains a strategic relationship with enCore Energy, one of the largest US uranium producers, which holds a buyback option on the Kaycee project at 2.5 times exploration costs once resources reach 15 million pounds. Rather than limiting upside, executives frame this as providing development partnership optionality and potential funding support.The enlarged company expects inclusion in major uranium ETFs, including URJ, URMM, and potentially URA, which could provide sustained institutional buying pressure. Plans for US listing following the merger target the larger US investor base and improved liquidity, addressing key challenges facing Canadian-listed uranium explorers.The transaction occurs against supportive federal policy tailwinds emphasizing domestic nuclear fuel security. Greg Huffman, CEO of Nuclear Fuels, emphasized: "There's going to be a huge push for domestic to reignite that domestic uranium and nuclear fuel supply chain." This policy support, combined with AI-driven electricity demand growth, positions the combined entity to benefit from anticipated uranium sector re-rating.While the merger creates compelling scale and strategic positioning, uranium exploration carries inherent geological and market risks. Resource targets remain unproven until confirmed through drilling, and cash flow generation remains years away. However, the combination of financial strength, infrastructure access, institutional backing, and supportive policy environment creates multiple value creation pathways for investors seeking exposure to US uranium exploration with significant upside potential.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Following the death of Takara Hime, and the war on the Korean peninsula, Naka no Ōe was taking hold--or perhaps keeping hold--of the reins of government.  He wasn't finished with his changes to the government.  He also had a new threat--the Tang Empire.  They had destroyed Yamato's ally, Baekje, and defeated the Yamato forces on the peninsula.  While the Tang then turned their attention to Goguryeo, Yamato could easily be next.  The Tang had a foothold on the Korean peninsula, so they had a place to gather and launch a fleet, should they wish to bring Yamato into their empire. For more, especially to follow along with some of the names in this episode, check out our blogpost at https://sengokudaimyo.com/podcast/episode-125     Rough Transcript Welcome to Sengoku Daimyo's Chronicles of Japan.  My name is Joshua and this is episode 125: The Sovereign of Heavenly Wisdom The people of Baekje looked around at the strange and unfamiliar land.  They had fled a wartorn country, and they were happy to be alive, but refugee status was hardly a walk in the park.  Fortunately, they still knew how to farm the land, even if their homeland was hundreds of miles away, across the sea, and occupied by hostile forces.  Here, at least, was a land where they could make a home for themselves. Some of them had to wonder whether this was really permanent.  Was their situation just temporary until their kingdom was restored?  Or were they truly the last people of Baekje, and what would that mean? Either way, it would mean nothing if they didn't work the land and provide for their families.  And so, as with displaced people everywhere, they made the best of the situation.  They had been given land to work, and that was more than they could have asked for.  They might never return to Baekje, but perhaps they could keep a little of it alive for themselves and their descendants. Greetings, everyone, and welcome back.  Last episode we talked about the downfall of Baekje and the defeat of the Yamato forces at the battle of Hakusukinoe, also known as the Battle of Baekgang, in 663.  And yet, something else happened as well: the sovereign, Takara Hime, aka Saimei Tennou, died as the Yamato forces were setting out.  Immediately Prince Naka no Oe took the reins of government.  He would be known to later generations as Tenji Tennou, with Tenji meaning something like “Heavenly Wisdom”. Now Prince Naka no Oe has been in the forefront of many of our episodes so far, so I'd like to start this episode out with a recap of what we've heard about him so far, as all of this is important to remind ourselves of the complex political situation.  I'm going to be dropping – and recapping – a lot of names, but I'll have many of the key individuals listed on the podcast website for folks who want to follow along.  I would note that this episode is going to be a summary, with some extrapolation by me regarding what was actually happening.  Just remember that history, as we've seen time and again, is often more messy and chaotic than we like, and people are more complex than just being purely good or evil.  People rarely make their way to the top of any social hierarchy purely through their good deeds.  To start with, let's go back to before the year 645, when Naka no Oe instigated a coup against Soga no Iruka and Soga no Emishi.  In the Isshi Incident, covered in Episode 106, Naka no Oe had Soga no Iruka murdered in court, in front of his mother, Takara Hime, when she sat on the throne the first time.  And yet, though he could have taken the throne when she abdicated in apparent shock, he didn't.  Instead, he took the role of “Crown Prince”, but this wasn't him just sitting back.  In fact, evidence suggests that he used that position to keep a strong hand on the tiller of the ship of state. Prior to the Isshi Incident of 645, the rule of the Yamato sovereign had been eroded by noble court families.  These families, originally set up to serve the court and its administration, had come to dominate the political structures of the court.  The main branch of the Soga family, in particular, had found its way to power through a series of astute political marriages and the support of a new, foreign religion:  Buddhism.  Soga no Iname, Emishi's grandfather, had married his daughters to the sovereigns, and thus created closer ties between the Soga and the royal line.  He also helped ensure that the offspring of those marriages would be the ones to take over as future sovereigns.  Soga no Iname, himself took the position of Oho-omi, the Great Omi, or the Great Minister, the head of the other ministerial families.  As Prime Minister, he held great sway over the day-to-day running of the court, and execution of much of the administration.  Much of this was covered in previous episodes, but especially episodes 88, 90, 91, 92, 95, 98, 99, and 103. Soga no Umako, who succeeded his father as Oho-omi, was joined in his effort to administer the government by his grand-nephew, Prince Umayado, also known as Shotoku Taishi, son of Tachibana no Toyohi, aka Youmei Tennou, and thus grandson of Umako's sister, Kitashi-hime, and the sovereign known as Kimmei Tennou.  Umayado's aunt, sister to Tachibana no Toyohi, was Kashikiya Hime, or Suiko Tennou.  The three of them:  Soga no Umako, Prince Umayado, and Kashikiya Hime, together oversaw the development of Yamato and the spread of Buddhism.  Buddhism was also controversial at first, but they turned it into another source of ritual power for the state—ritual power that Soga no Umako, Prince Umayado, and even Kashikiya Hime were able to harvest for their own use. Unfortunately, the Crown Prince, Umayado, died before Kashikiya hime, suddenly leaving open the question of who would take the throne.  Soga no Umako himself, passed away two years before Kashikiya Hime.  When she in turn passed away, there was another struggle for the throne, this time between the descendants of Crown Prince Umayado and Soga no Umako.  Eventually, Soga no Umako's son and heir, Soga no Emishi, made sure that a more pliant sovereign, Prince Tamura, would take the throne, and Prince Umayado's own son, Prince Yamashiro no Oe, was cut out of the succession.  Soga no Emishi, serving as prime minister, effectively ran things much as his father had.  When Tamura diedhis queen, Takara Hime, took the throne, rather than passing it back to Umayado's line—no doubt with Emishi's blessing.  He was careful, however, not to provoke direct action against Yamashiro no Oe, possibly due to the reverence in which Yamashiro's father, Prince Umayado, aka the Buddhist Saint Shotoku Taishi, was held.  Meanwhile, Emishi appears to have been cultivating his grandson by way of Prince Tamura, Furubito no Oe, to eventually succeed to the throne, trying to duplicate what his own father Umako and even grandfather had been able to accomplish. Soga no Emishi's son, Soga no Iruka, was not quite so temperate, however.   Who would have thought that growing up at the top of the social hierarchy might make one feel a bit arrogant and entitled?   When Soga no Emishi was ill, Soga no Iruka took over as Prime Minister, and he didn't just stand back.  He decided that he needed to take out Furubito no Oe's competition, and so he went after Yamashiro no Oe and had him killed. Unfortunately for him, he apparently went too far.  There were already those who were not happy with the Soga family's close hold on power—or perhaps more appropriately, this particular line of the Soga family.  This kind of behavior allowed a group of discontented royals and nobility to gain support. According to the popular story recounted in the Nihon Shoki, the primary seed of resistance started with a game of kickball, or kemari.  Nakatomi no Kamako, aka Nakatomi no Kamatari, was the scion of his house, which was dedicated to the worship of the traditional kami of Yamato.  The Nakatomi were ritualists: in charge of chanting ritual prayers, or norito, during court ceremony.  This meant that their powerbase was directly challenged by the increasing role of Buddhism, one of the Soga patriarchs' key influences on the political system. Kamatari was feeling out the politics of the court, and seemed to be seeking the support of royal family members who could help challenge the powerful Soga ministers.  He found that support in two places.  First, in Prince Karu, brother to Takara Hime, the current sovereign, who had been on the throne ever since her husband, Tamura, had passed away.  And then there was the Prince Katsuraki, better known to us, today, as Prince Naka no Oe.  A game of kemari, where a group of players tried to keep a ball in the air as long as they could, using only their feet, was a chance to get close to the Prince.  When Naka no Oe's shoe flew off in the middle of the match, Kamatari ran over to retrieve it.  As he offered the shoe back to its owner, they got to talking, and one of the most impactful bromances in Yamato history was born. The two ended up studying together.  The unification of the Yellow River and Yangzi basin regions under the Sui and Tang, and the expansion of the Silk Road, had repercussions felt all the way across the straits in Yamato.  Naka no Oe and Kamatari were both avid students and were absorbing all that the continent had to throw at them about philosophy and good governance.  As is so often the case, it seems like idealistic students were the fertile ground for revolutionary new thoughts. There were problems implementing their vision, however.  Although the Nihon Shoki claims that Naka no Oe was the Crown Prince, that honor was probably given to Prince Furubito no Oe, who would have no doubt perpetuated the existing power structures at court.  This is something that the Chroniclers, or perhaps those before them, glossed over and may have even tried to retconned, to help bolster the case that Naka no Oe was actually working for the common good and not just involved in a naked power grab for himself.  There is also the question as to where Yamashiro no Oe had stood in the succession, as he likely had a fair number of supporters. With the destruction of Yamashiro no Oe's family, however, the balance of power shifted.  Although Soga no Emishi had long been an influential member of the court, and not solely because of his role as Prime Minister, Soga no Iruka was relatively new to power.  Yamashiro no Oe's family, in turn, likely had a fair number of supporters, and even neutral parties may have been turned off by Iruka's violent methods to suppress an opponent who had already been defeated politically.  Naka no Oe and Kamatari seem to have seized on this discontent againt the Soga, but they needed at least one other conspirator.  They achieved this by offering a marriage alliance with Soga no Kurayamada no Ishikawa no Maro, a lesser member of the Soga household, whose own immediate family had been supporters of Yamashiro no Oe, and so likely had plenty of grievances with his cousins.  Naka no Oe married Ishikawa no Maro's daughter, Wochi no Iratsume, also known as Chinu no Iratsume.  Together, these three—Naka no Oe, Kamatari, and Ishikawa no Maro—brought others into their plot, and finally, in 645, they struck.  Soga no Iruka was killed at court, in front of a shocked Takara Hime and Prince Furubito no Oe.  By the way, this is another thing that suggests to me that Furubito no Oe was the Crown Prince, because why was he front and center at the ceremony, while Naka no Oe was able to skulk around at the edges, tending to things like the guards?  After the assassination at the court – the Isshi Incident -- Naka no Oe gathered forces and went after Soga no Emishi, since they knew they couldn't leave him alive.  With both Soga no Emishi and Soga no Iruka dead, and Takara Hime having abdicated the throne in shock at what had just occurred, Naka no Oe could have taken the throne for himself.  However, in what was probably a rather astute move on his part, he chose not to.  He recognized that Furubito no Oe's claim to the throne was possibly stronger, and those who had supported the Soga would not doubt push for him to take the throne.  And so, instead, he pushed for his uncle, Prince Karu, to ascend as sovereign.  Karu was Takara Hime's brother, and they could use Confucian logic regarding deference to one's elders to support him.  Plus, Karu's hands weren't directly bloodied by the recent conflict. As for Prince Furubito, he saw the way that the winds were blowing.  To avoid being another casualty, he retired from the world, taking the vows of a Buddhist monk.  However, there were still supporters who were trying to put him on the throne and eventually he would be killed, to avoid being used as a rallying point. Prince Karu, known as Jomei Tennou, ruled for around a decade. During that time, Naka no Oe and his reformers helped to cultivate a new image of the state as a bureaucratic monarchy.  Naka no Oe was designated the Crown Prince, and Nakatomi no Kamatari was made the “Inner Prime Minister”, or Naidaijin.  Ishikawa no Maro was made the minister of the  Right, while Abe no Uchimaro was made Minister of the Left, and they ran much of the bureaucracy, but the Naidaijin was a role more directly attached to the royal household, and likely meant that Kamatari was outside of their jurisdiction, falling into a position directly supporting Naka no Oe.  They instituted Tang style rank systems, and set up divisions of the entire archipelago.  They appointed governors of the various countries, now seen as provinces, and made them report up to various ministers, and eventually the sovereign.  After all, if you were going to manage everything, you needed to first and foremost collect the data.  This period is known as the Taika, or Great Change, period, and the reforms are known as the Taika reforms, discussed in episode 108. They even built a large government complex in the form of the Toyosaki Palace, in Naniwa, though this may have been a bit much—for more, check out episodes 112 and 113. Years into the project, though, things seem to have soured, a bit.  Rumors and slander turned Kamatari against his ally, Ishikawa no Maro, resulting in the death of Ishikawa no Maro and much of his family.  Naka no Oe and other members of the royal family eventually abandoned the Naniwa palace complex, leaving now-Emperor Karu and the government officials there to run the day-to-day administration, while much of the court made its way back to the Asuka area.  Karu would later pass away, but the throne still did not pass to Crown Prince Naka no Oe, despite his title.  Instead, the throne went back to Takara Hime.  This was her second reign, and one of only two split reigns like this that we know of.  The Chroniclers, who were creating posthumous titles for the sovereigns, gave her two names—Kogyoku Tennou for her reign up to 645, and then Saimei Tennou for her second reign starting in 655.   During her latter reign, Naka no Oe continued to wield power as the Crown Prince, and the Chroniclers don't really get into why she came back into power.  It may be that Naka no Oe, in his role as Crown Prince, had more freedom: although the sovereign is purportedly the person in power, that position can also be limiting.  There are specific things which the sovereign is supposed to do, rituals in which they are expected to partake.  In addition, there were restrictions on who was allowed into the inner sanctum of the palace, and thus limits on who could interact with the sovereign, and how.  That meant that any sovereign was reliant on intermediaries to know what was going on in their state and to carry out their orders.  As Crown Prince, Naka no Oe may have had more flexibility to do the things he wanted to do, and he could always leverage the sovereign's authority. When Baekje was destroyed, and Yamato decided to go to their aid, Naka no Oe appears to have had a strong hand in raising forces and directing movements, at least within the archipelago.  When Takara Hime passed away rather suddenly, he accompanied her funerary procession much of the way back, and then returned to Tsukushi—Kyushu—to direct the war.   This is the same thing that Toyotomi Hideyoshi would do when he sent troops to Korea in the late 16th century.  Moving headquarters closer to the continent would reduce the time between messages.  Theoretically he could have moved out to the islands of Iki or Tsushima, but I suspect that there were more amenities at Tsukushi, where they even built a palace for Takara Hime—and later Naka no Oe—to reside in.  It was likely not quite as spectacular as the full-blown city that Hideyoshi developed in a matter of months, but the court could also leverage the facilities previously created for the Dazaifu. The war took time.  This wasn't like some “wars” that were more like specific military actions.  This was a war that dragged on for several years, with different waves of ships going over to transport people and supplies.  Things came to a head in the 9th month of 663, roughly October or November on the Western calendar.  The Baekje resistance was under siege, and their only hope was a fleet of Yamato soldiers coming to their aid.  The Yamato fleet met with a much smaller Tang fleet at the mouth of the Baek River—the Hakusukinoe.  They attempted to break through the Tang blockade, but the Tang had positional advantage and were eventually able to counterattack, destroying the Yamato fleet.  Without their relief, the Baekje resistance fell. The remnants of the Yamato army, along with those Baekje nobles that were with them, headed out, fleeing back to the archipelago.  One presumes that there may have been other Baekje nobles, and their families, who had already made the trip. After the entry describing this rout, on the 24th day of the 9th month of 663, we have a gap in the Chronicles of just a little more than 4 months.  We then pick up with Naka no Oe's government starting to look at internal affairs.  For one thing, we are told that he selected his younger brother, the Royal Prince Ohoama, as Crown Prince, and he made updates to the cap-rank system, changing it from 19 ranks to 26 ranks.  The first six ranks remained the same, but the name “kwa”, or “flower”, for the 7th through 10th ranks was changed to “Kin”, meaning “brocade”.  Furthermore, a “middle” rank was added between the Upper and Lower ranks, further distinguishing each group, and adding 6 extra ranks.  Finally, the initial rank, Risshin, was divided into two:  Daiken and Shouken.  We aren't told why, but it likely meant that they could have more granular distinctions in rank. At the same time that was going on, the court also awarded long swords to the senior members of the great families, and short swords to the senior members of lesser families.  Below that, senior members of the Tomo no Miyatsuko and others were given shields and bows and arrows.  Furthermore, the vassals, or kakibe, and the domestic retainers, or yakabe, were settled, to use Aston's translation.  The kanji used in the text appears to refer to settling a decision or standardizing something, rather than settling as in giving a place to live.  It seems to me to mean that the court was settling servants on families: determining what kind and how many servants that various houses could have based on their position in the hierarchy.  I can't help but notice that all of these gifts were very martial in nature.  That does not mean, of course, that they were necessarily because of the war over Baekje, nor that they were in response to the concern about a possible Tang invasion -- we've seen in the past where swords were gifted to people who had served the court --but it is hard not to connect these gifts with recent worries.  We also know that this year, Naka no Oe turned his focus on building defenses, setting up guards and beacon fires on the islands of Tsushima and Iki.   Should any unknown fleet be seen coming to the archipelago, the fires would alert the forces at Kyushu, so they could send word and prepare a defense. In addition, the court built an impressive defense for Tsukushi—for the Dazai itself, the seat of the Yamato government in Kyushu.  It is called the Mizuki, or Water Castle, though at the time “castle” was more about walls and fortifications than the standalone fortress we tend to think of, today.  Along those lines, the Mizuki was an earthen embankment, roughly 1.2 kilometers long, extending from a natural ridgeline to the west across the Mikasa river.  Archeological evidence shows it had a moat, and this line of fortifications would have been a line of defense for the Dazai, should anyone try to invade.  This construction was so large and impressive that you can still see it, even today.  It stands out on the terrain, and it is even visible from overhead photographs. In the third month of 664, we are told that Prince Syeongwang of Baekje and his people, were given a residence at Naniwa.  In fact, even though Baekje was no longer an independent kingdom, there appear to have been thousands of Baekje people now living in Yamato, unable to return home.  Many of these were former nobles of the Baekje court, which Yamato treated as a foreign extension of its own.  Resettling these people would be a major theme for the Chronicles, but we will also see, as we read further on, how their talents were leveraged for the state. Also in the third month, a star fell in the north—it says “in the north of the capital”, but I suspect that anywhere north, south, east, or west of the capital would have seen the same thing “in the north”.  There was also an earthquake, which isn't given any particular significance, beyond its mention as a natural phenomenon. On the 17th day of the 5th month of 664, so roughly 2 months later, we are told that Liu Jen'yuan, the Tang dynasty's general in Baekje, sent Guo Wucong  to Yamato with a letter and gifts.  We aren't told the contents of the letter, but one imagines that this may have been a rather tense exchange.  Yamato had just been involved in open warfare against Tang forces on the peninsula, and they still weren't sure if the Tang empire would come after them next.  Their only real hope on that front was Goguryeo, since the Tang and Silla were still trying to destroy the Goguryeo kingdom, and that may have kept the Tang forces tied up for a while.  No doubt Guo Wucong would have seen some of the defenses that Yamato was constructing during his visit. Guo Wucong would hang around for about seven and a half months.  He was given permission to take his leave on the 4th day of the 10th month.  Naka no Oe had his friend and Inner Prime Minister, Nakatomi no Kamatari send the Buddhist Priest, Chisho, with presents for Guo Wucong, and he and his officers were granted entertainments  before they left as well. Finally, Guo Wucong and his people returned to the Tang on the 12th day of the 12th month. While the delegation from the Tang was in Yamato, we are told of several tragedies.  First was that Soga no Murajiko no Oho-omi had passed away.  Soga no Murajiko appears to have been another son of Soga no Kuramaro, and thus brother to Soga no Ishikawa no Maro.  Unfortunately, we don't have much more on him in the record. Just a month later, we are told that the “Dowager Queen” Shima passed away.  Aston translates this as the Queen Grandmother, suggesting that she was Naka no Oe's grandmother. We are also told, that in the 10th month of 664, around the time that Guo Wucong was given leave to depart, that Yeon Gaesomun, the Prime Minister—though perhaps more correctly the despotic ruler—of Goguryeo, died.  It is said that he asked his children to remain united, but, well, even if we didn't know how it all turned out, I think we would look somewhat skeptically on any idea that they all did exactly as they were told.  Sure enough, in 667 we are told that Gaesomun's eldest son, Namseng, left the capital city of Pyongyang to tour the provinces, and while he was gone his younger brothers conspired with the nobility, and when he came back they refused to let him back in.  So Namseng ran off to the Tang court and apparently helped them destroy his own country. This is largely corroborated by other stories about Goguryeo, though the dates do seem to be off.  Tang records put Gaesomun's death around 666 CE, which the Samguk Sagi appears to follow, but on his tomb the date would appear to be 665.  Confusion like this was easy enough given the different dates and trying to cross-check across different regnal eras.  Sure, there were some commonalities, but it was very easy to miscount something. One last note from the twelfth month of 664—it seems that there were omens of apparent prosperity that came to the court from the island of Awaji.    First, there was rice that grew up in a farmer's pig trough.  The farmer's name is given as Shinuta no Fumibito no Mu, and Mu gathered this rice and stored it up, and thus, every day his wealth increased.  Then there was the bridal bed of Iwaki no Sukuri no Oho, of Kurimoto district.  They claimed that rice grew up at the head of his brides' mattress during her first night's stay with him.  And this wasn't just some brand new shoot, but overnight it formed an ear, and by the morning it bent down and ripened.  Then, the following night, another ear was formed.  When the bride went out into the courtyard, two keys fell down from heaven, and after she gave them to her husband, Oho, he went on to become a wealthy man. The exact purpose of these stories is unclear, but it seems to be that the Chroniclers are choosing to focus on stories of wealth and growth, which speak to how they wanted this reign as a whole, including the sovereign, to be remembered. However, more tragedy struck the following year, in 665,  when Hashibito, another Dowager Queen – this time the wife of Karu, aka Koutoku Tennou - passed away on the 25th day of the 2nd month.  On the first day of the 3rd month, 330 people took Buddhist vows for her sake. We are also told that in the second month the ranks of Baekje were cross-referenced with the ranks of Yamato, and then ranks were given out to some of the Baekje nobles that had come over to Yamato.  Kwisil Chipsa, who was originally ranked “Dalsol” in Baekje, was accorded “Lower Shoukin”.  That was rank 12 of the 26.  In comparison, “Dalsol” seems to have been the 2nd rank of 16 in Baekje.  Along with handing out rank, over 400 Baekje commoners, both men and women, were given residence in the Kanzaki district in Afumi.  This appears to be an area along the Aichi river, running from the Suzuka Mountains, west towards Lake Biwa. The court granted them rice-lands in the following month.  At the same time, several high ranking Baekje nobles were put in charge of building castles at strategic points around the archipelago.  These included one castle in Nagato, as well as the castles of Ohono and Woyogi, in Tsukushi.  Two years later, in 667, we also see the building of Takayasu castle, in Yamato and Yashima castle in Yamada, in Sanuki—modern Kagawa, on Shikoku, facing the Seto Inland Sea passageway.  Kaneda castle in Tsushima was also a Baekje-built one. We mentioned something about these castles last episode.  They were in the Baekje style, and as I said, the term “castle” here is more about the walls, which were largely made of rammed earth ramparts.  This means that you pile up earth and dirt in a layer and then the laborers use tools specifically to tamp it down until it is thick and hard.  Then another layer is piled on top and the process is repeated.  These walls were often placed on mountain tops, and they would follow the terrain, making them places that were easy to defend.  Beyond that, they didn't necessarily have a donjon keep or anything like that—maybe a tower so that one could see a little further, but being at the top of a mountain usually provided all the visual cues that one needed. We know there were other castles made as well.  For example, I mentioned last week about Kinojo, in Okayama, the ancient Kibi area.  Kinojo is not mentioned in the Nihon Shoki, but it clearly existed back then, and matches the general description of a 7th century mountain castle as built in Baekje.  The name means Demon Castle, and there is a story about it that is connected to the local Kibitsu Jinja—the Shrine to Prince Kibi.  According to legend, Kibitsu Hiko, aka Prince Kibitsu or, perhaps more appropriately, the Prince of Kibi, came to the area around the time of the Mimaki Iribiko, so probably about the 3rd century, at the head of a large force.  Kibitsu Hiko had come to defeat the demon, Ura, who lived in the nearby castle, hence Kinojo, and legend says that he freed the people from the demon's rule. As I also mentioned, last week, this particular castle may have ended up in the Momotaro story.  There are those who believe that the story of Momotarou is based on the story of Prince Kibitsu Hiko, and his defeat of the so-called demon, “Ura”.   Certainly the story has grown more fantastical, and less connected to the ancient history of the Kibi region, but it still may have its origin in a much more standard legend of a founding prince of the ancient Kibi kingdom that was later changed into a fairy tale.   More likely, the castle was built by a Baekje nobleman, often thought to be a prince, who settled in the area.  There is the possibility that the demon's name “Ura” came from a mistranslation of his name, or it is also possible that he was unrelated to the story at all.  The Kibitsu Hiko legend may have incorporated the castle, Kinojo, at a later date, once people had forgotten when and why the castle was actually built. It would make sense if Kinojo had been built as part of the defenses for Yamato, as that area overlooks a large part of the fertile plains of Okayama and out beyond Kojima to the Seto Inland Sea -- it is perched over a key overland route from the western edge of Honshu to Yamato, and there would have been several ways to signal boats to put to sea to intercept forces on the water.  . This all suggests to me that Kinojo was probably part of Naka no Oe's castle-building effort, even if it isn't specifically remembered in the Chronicle.  But building castles wasn't enough to bring peace of mind that Yamato would survive a Tang invasion, and it is possibly as a defensive measure that Naka no Oe would go on to do something truly incredible—he would eventually move the capital from Asuka and Naniwa all the way to the shores of Lake Biwa itself, establishing the Ohotsu palace.  This was a truly extreme step that didn't endear Naka no Oe to the court, but it had several advantages.  For one thing, this move pulled the capital further away from the sea routes, meaning that if they were attacked, they had a more defensible position.  Even more so than Yamato, the Afumi region around Lake Biwa is surrounded by mountains, with a few narrow passes that restricted movement in and out. One of these is the famous Sekigahara, which remained a choke point even up to modern times.  The name even means the Field of the Barrier, indicating the barrier and checkpoint that had been set up there in ancient times.  Moving the capital also pulled the court away from some of the previous political centers, which may have been another feature that made it attractive to Naka no Oe.  Many capital moves have been made, at least in part, to get farther away from strong Buddhist temples, and this certainly would have moved things out of the Asuka region, which by now was a hotbed of Buddhist temple activity.
