Link: Earliest historical Japanese monarchs, AT
Some while ago, I prepared an ancestor table about Japanese monarchs around the time when pre-historical era turned into historical era in central Japan.
This is my view of many aspects of what happened when a loose kingdom of Yamato mutated towards centrally administered state. And, in my interpretation, around the same time a male-line dynasty (the current one) got established, being in several different ways descendant of several separate male-line royal families which held part or almost all Yamato, but sporadically.
This also shows some fundaments in background of my suspicion towards so-called unbrokenness of male line on the Japanese throne.
Better display should be at:

But, if for some reason it does not open without trouble, the same should also be at:
