Grave of “Sumiyoshi Urachika ” or “Mori Kohei”

Mori Kohei was a Kyoka poet. He composed Kyoka poetry, or comic/satirical tanka poems. He used the name “Sumiyoshi Urachika” as a poet. His works sometimes appeared in Utamaro's work.

There are two tombstones. The left tombstone is considered to be his grave because his name and the year he died are written on the right side.

(kyoka:comical and satirical tanka poem in five lines of 5,7,5,7 and 7 syllables)
