Yōwa (養和) was a Japanese era name (年号,, nengō,, lit. "year name") after Jishō and before Juei. This period spanned the years from July 1181 through May 1182.[1] The reigning emperor was Antoku-tennō (安徳天皇).[2]
Change of era
- 1181 Yōwa gannen (養和元年): The new era name was created to mark an event or a number of events. The previous era ended and a new one commenced in Jishō 5, on the 14th day of the 7th month of 1181.[3]
Events of the Yōwa era
- 1181 (Yōwa 1, 25th day of the 11th month): Tokuko, former consort of the late Emperor Takakura, adopts the name of Kenreimon-in.[4]
- 1181 (Yōwa 1): A famine that lasts for two years blights this era.[5]
