The start of festival

540-71  Aoi Festival (Kyoto) 
     863  Gion Festival (Kyoto)
     923  Hojoe (Fukuoka)
     951  Tenjin Festival (Osaka)
   1179  Hakata Matsubayashi (Fukuoka)
   1241  Hakata Yamagasa (Fukuoka) 
Namahage, Nebuta, and Awaodori are the very famous Japanese festivals  and these start from ancient times and no one knows when they started.

It's new for any festival to have the start year known to us so I call these Namahage, Nebuta, and Awaodori are the Japan Three Big Festivals
