During Toyotomi Hideyoshi's conquests of Korea in the 1590s, he collected 68,000 Korean and Chinese noses, which are now enshrined at the Mimizuka shrine in Kyoto, Japan. At least 1 million Koreans and Chinese were slaughtered by the Japanese, and at least 215,000 heads were taken by the Japanese as war spoils.
