Wakasa Province Guardian's Office

Japanese: 若狭国守護職次第 - わかさのくにしゅごしきしだい

A chronological record of the successive Shugo of Wakasa Province. One volume. The original form was created during the Showa era (1312-17) at the end of the Kamakura period, and it was repeatedly added up until around 1422 (Oei 29) before taking on its current form. Beginning with the appointment of Tsutsumi Uemon Jiro Tadaki as Shugo in 1196 (Kenkyu 7), it records not only the appointment of Shugo Shoin, but also the appointment periods of Shugo Daikan and Shugo Mata Daikan. Along with Nagato Province Shugoshoku Shidai (included in Zoku Gunsho Ruiju), it is a valuable historical document. Included in Gunsho Ruiju. [Oda Yuzo]
