The Great Buddha of Kamakura is a large bronze statue of Buddha located in Kamakura, a historic city south of Tokyo.

The compact disc (CD) was co-invented by Philips and Sony in the 1980s and has since replaced vinyl records as the primary means of music storage.

The Kamakura period, which lasted from the 12th to the 14th century, was a time of political upheaval and marked the rise of the shogunate.
