Movement · period · 1185–1333
Dates. The start depends on which step of Minamoto no Yoritomo’s rise counts: 1185, when he won the right to appoint military governors (shugo) and land stewards (jitō) after the Taira were defeated at Dan-no-ura — the prevailing view1; 1192, his appointment as shōgun2 — the older view, still used by the Tokyo National Museum; or 1183, the court’s recognition of his rule over the east3. It ends in 1333, when the supporters of Emperor Go-Daigo took Kamakura and the shogunate fell4.
