*''Reign: 29 BCE - [[70]] CE''
*''Japanese'': 垂仁天皇 ''(Suinin tennou)''
Emperor Seimu is an early emperor considered the 11th [[emperors of Japan|Emperor of Japan]] by the "traditional" counting. It is unclear whether he was a historical figure, or should be regarded as more purely legendary.
His consort (or one of his consorts) is known as Hibasuhime no mikoto; a mausoleum traditionally said to be hers neighbors those of [[Emperor Seimu]] and [[Empress Koken|Empress Kôken]], a short distance to the northwest of the [[Heijo Imperial Palace|Heijô Imperial Palace]].
The ''[[Nihon shoki]]'' tells of a prince from [[Silla]] named [[Ame no Hiboko]] who traveled to Japan during the reign of Emperor Suinin, bringing ritual objects and offering his services to the emperor.<ref>J.
