San Diego, California

Japanese Kamon: According to Encyclopedia Japan, a kamon "refers to a crest used in Japan to indicate one's origins; that is, one's family lineage, blood line, ancestry and status from ancient times. It is also referred to simply as 'Mondokoro' or 'Mon'."  (No, it's not the swordfish; it's the petaled flower.) Mount Hope Cemetery. [2020]
