Kisitsu Shushi

Japanese: 鬼室集斯 - きしつ・しゅうし

Years of birth: Years of birth and death unknown. A Baekje nobleman who fled to Japan after Baekje's downfall (660). In February of the 4th year of Tenchi (665), when it was decided how Baekje's official ranks corresponded to Japanese crown ranks, the rank of Baekje's Tatsuru, which should have been the equivalent of a Japanese mountain rank, was originally given the rank of Shokin-ge due to the efforts of Kimura Fukushin in the Baekje restoration war, so perhaps he was Fukushin's son. In the 8th year of the same year, he and over 700 other men and women were moved to Gamo District, Omi Province (Gamo District, Shiga Prefecture). In January of the 10th year of the same year, the Nihon Shoki states that he was a gakuto (gakuto), which would later be the head of the Daigakuryo (university) under the Ritsuryo system. His grave is located in the grounds of Kimura Shrine in Hino Town, Shiga Prefecture. <References> Koguchi Yasuo, "Regarding the Tomb of Kimura Shusi" (Nihon Shoki Research, No. 11)

生年：生没年不詳
百済滅亡(660)後に日本に亡命した百済の貴族。天智4(665)年2月,百済の官位と日本の冠位がどのように対応するかを定めたとき,本来は日本の山位に相当するはずの百済の達率であったが,百済復興戦に尽力した鬼室福信の功によって小錦下の位を授けられているので,あるいは福信の子か。同8年,余自信ならびに男女七百余人と共に近江国蒲生郡(滋賀県蒲生郡)に移住させられた。同10年1月にはのちの令制の大学寮の長官に相当する学頭職であったことが『日本書紀』にみえる。墓は滋賀県日野町の鬼室神社の境内にある。<参考文献>胡口靖夫「鬼室集斯墓をめぐって」(『日本書紀研究』11号)
