Hollow - Hollow

Japanese: 窪所 - くぼどころ

The guard force of the Kenmu government. The only known related articles are that they were called Kubosho and had Iga Kanemitsu, Yuki Chikamitsu, Tomibe Nobutsura, and Takano Moronao as their generals (Baisho-ron), and that in February 1336 (Engen 1 | Kenmu 3), 13 military commanders including Nitta Yoshitaka and Kanemochi Hiroharu were placed in the Kubosho in a four-rank system (Kenmu-ki). The actual nature of the Kubosho is almost unknown. In terms of time, the former is thought to be a situation shortly after the establishment of the Kenmu government, while the latter is a name given to the Kubosho after Ashikaga Takauji defected. The relationship between the Kubosho and the Musha-dokoro is also unclear, but if we compare the existing names of the two from 1336, there are many overlapping names, so even if they were separate organizations, they are thought to be similar in nature.

Japanese:

建武政府の警備隊。関係記事としては，窪所と号して伊賀兼光･結城親光･富部信連･高師直らを衆中としたこと(《梅松論》)，1336年(延元1∥建武3)2月新田義高･金持広栄ら13名の武将を4番制の窪所に配置したこと(《建武記》)が知られるぐらいで，窪所の実体はほとんど不明。時期的にみて，前者は建武政府成立後まもないころの状況とみられ，後者は足利尊氏離反後の交名（きようみよう）である。窪所と武者所との関係も不明確であるが，現存する36年の両者の交名を比較すれば重複者が少なくないので，別々の機構だとしても性格的には近いと考えられる。
