[[File:Kawai-suno.jpg|right|thumb|400px|Bust of Kawai at [[Himeji Shrine]]]]
*''Born: [[1767]]/5/24''
*''Died: [[1841]]/6/24''
*''Other Names'': 川合道臣 ''(Kawai Michiomi)''<ref>Kawai changed his surname from the 川合 used by his father to 河合, used by his earlier ancestors, in [[1810]]. Both are read as "Kawai."</ref>
*''Japanese'': [[河合]] 寸翁 ''(Kawai Sun'ô)''
Kawai Sun'ô was a [[Sakai clan]] ''[[karo|karô]]'' and ''[[sonno|kin'ô]]'' ("serve the emperor") adherent. He is known for his roughly 30 years of service to [[Himeji han]], including overseeing significant financial reforms.
Born the son of ''karô'' [[Kawai Munemi]]<!--川合宗見--> in [[1767]], he was granted the name Michiomi by lord of Himeji [[Sakai Tadamichi]]. He succeeded his father to become Sakai ''karô'' in [[1787]], at age 20. In [[1808]], he was elevated to a leadership (''katte'') position, and undertook financial reforms in an effort to return the domain government to financial well-being. These efforts included expanding land reclamation for agricultural and salt-making use, establishing a number of workshops for raising [[silkworms]], weaving, and dyeing as well as pottery kilns, and expanding the production and sale of [[cotton]], ''Higashiyama-yaki'' pottery, Tatsuyama stone, and [[ginseng]].
In his later years, he took on the name Sun'ô.
