Dolls have been used since ancient times as objects of worship and the tool of curse and were called "Hitogata" or "Katashiro" with the meaning of a substitute for plague or misfortune.
During the Heian period (794-1185), when aristocratic culture flourished, the magical purpose of these dolls gradually faded and aristocratic girls started using them as playthings, and the tradition continued for a thousand years until the 21st century.
In Japan, March 3 is the popular "Hinamatsuri", a day to celebrate the birth and growth of children, and Kyo dolls are often displayed.
