History[]
| “ | The watermill first appeared in Japan in 610 CE. Watermills have long held economic significance in Japan, playing an integral role in industries such as rice and grain milling, as well as papermaking. Water wheels became particularly important during the Edo period. One especially famous example from this time is the Asakura water wheels, which have been operating for over 230 years and still provide water to the surrounding rice fields. | ” |
