Utsuro-bune (うつろ舟 ‘hollow ship’), also Utsuro-fune and Urobune, is the term for a mysterious object that is said to have washed ashore in 1803 on the northern coast of Japan.
The legend is told in a book called Hyōryū kishū (漂流紀集 ‘diary and stories of the castaways’), composed during the Edo period.
Modern UFO-believers consider the legend of the Utsuro-bune to be the earliest credible document of a close encounter of third kind phenomenon.[1]
