Unveiling Edo’s Secret Warriors: Half of Samurai Were Women, British Museum Reveals Shocking Truth!
John C. Weber Collection, John Bigelow Taylor/The British MuseumFemale samurai who lived and worked in Edo Castle were trained to protect the women’s quarters from fire. This jacket and hood was worn by one of these female firefighters.
These items will be on display at the British Museum until May 2026 for anyone interested in learning more about the true history of Japan’s samurai — particularly the forgotten women who held the title.
As Buckland told The Guardian, “This rediscovery of female samurai history reframes centuries of gendered myth and challenges the hyper-masculine image of the samurai that still dominates film, anime, and gaming.”
After learning about the new British Museum exhibition that reveals the true history of Japan’s female samurai, go inside the story of the soldaderas, the female warriors who fought in the Mexican Revolution. Then, read about Yoshiko Kawashima, the Chinese princess who spied for Japan.
