Kugyō (Minamoto no Yoshinari)

Kugyō (Minamoto no Yoshinari)

, also known as Minamoto no Yoshinari, was the second son of the second Kamakura shogun of Japan, Minamoto no Yoriie. Kugyō assassinated the third Kamakura shogun, Minamoto no Sanetomo, on the steps of the stone stairway at the center of the Tsurugaoka Hachiman-gū, a major Shinto shrine in the shogunal capital of Kamakura. Kugyō was himself killed immediately after the assassination.

The assassination is chronicled in the "Azuma Kagami".
