From this time onwards his family were hereditary ministers of foreign affairs, and the traditions of their blood naturally led them to love and reverence foreign culture and institutions, whereas other native princes tended to the strict conservation of national customs. For the responsibility of government usually re- mained with the powerful aristocracy who surrounded the throne, and carried out THE ASUKA PERIOD 91 mandates with the sanction of the imperial name. This is the survival of that... " Assembly of the Gods " who were held to have given counsel to the supreme Godhead in Takamagahara.
