Emperor Senka

Senka (467–539), the 28th emperor of Japan in traditional order, was the second son of Emperor Keitai and the full younger brother of Emperor Ankan. He took the throne in 536 after Ankan's death and ruled a little over three years; his reign marks the close of the Kofun period on the eve of the Asuka period.

His empress was Tachibana no Nakatsu, a daughter of Emperor Ninken. Their daughter Ishi-hime became empress to his half-brother and successor, Emperor Kinmei.
