BFC0473 Japanese Matsuya Crests
Japanese Crests, or Ka-mon, were first used around A.D. 603 on military flags and banners. By the 700's, Ka-mon became very popular but were only allowed to be used by the imperial family, lords and samurai. They became specific to a family and the crest could often be used to trace lineage. By the Meiji Revolution in 1868, Ka-mon were used by everyone, even the common folk. There are over 12,000 Ka-mon presently in use. They are not used as prevalently now as in the past, but can still be seen on ceremonial dress.
