Tomobuchi-so

Japanese: 鞆淵荘 - ともぶちのしょう

A manor in Naga County, Kii Province. The area is centered around Nakatomo-buchi in Kinokawa City, Wakayama Prefecture. Also called Tomobuchisono, it was the property of Yamashiro Iwashimizu Hachiman-gu Temple during the Heian and Kamakura periods, and was the property of Mount Koya after the Northern and Southern Courts. At Tomobuchi Hachiman Shrine in Nakatomo-buchi, a portable shrine (national treasure) that was sent from Iwashimizu Hachiman-gu in 1228 still remains. Around the time it became the property of Mount Koya, violent armed conflicts broke out between the Geshi (lower rank) Tomobuchi clan and the peasants who were strengthening their ties with the So (general authority), and the peasants began to flee repeatedly, but the chaos ended when Mount Koya began to expel the Geshi. According to an inspection in 1428, the total area was over 41 cho.

紀伊国那賀(なが)郡の荘園。現和歌山県紀の川市の中鞆淵を中心とした一帯。鞆淵薗ともいわれ，平安〜鎌倉期には山城石清水(いわしみず)八幡宮寺領，南北朝以降は高野山領。中鞆淵の鞆淵八幡神社には1228年石清水八幡宮から送進された神輿(しんよ)（国宝）が現存。高野山領となったころから，下司(げし)鞆淵氏と惣(そう)の結合を固めつつあった農民との間で激しい武力衝突が起こり，農民は逃散(ちょうさん)を繰り返すようになったが，高野山が下司追放に乗り出して混乱は収束した。1428年の検注によると総面積41町余。
