Yokozuna Stone, Stone monument at Tomioka Hachiman Shrine, Japan.
The Yokozuna Stone stands 3.5 meters tall and weighs 20 tons, displaying inscribed names of distinguished sumo champions throughout Japanese history.
Jinmaku Kyugoro, the 12th yokozuna, established this memorial stone in 1900 to commemorate the achievements of grand champion sumo wrestlers.
The stone represents the strong connection between Tomioka Hachiman Shrine and sumo wrestling, marking the location where Kanjin-zumo tournaments originated in 1684.
Visitors can find the stone monument within the shrine grounds, where names of yokozuna from the past to present, including Terunofuji Haruo, are engraved.
The monument contains a complete chronological record of every yokozuna grand champion, serving as an official historical register of sumo's highest rank.
