Prince Munetaka


Prince Munetaka (宗尊親王) (December 15, 1242 – September 2, 1274) was the sixth shogun of the Kamakura shogunate of Japan who reigned from 1252 to 1266.

He was the first son of the Emperor Go-Saga and replaced the deposed Kujō Yoritsugu as shogun at the age of ten. He was a puppet ruler controlled by the Hōjō clan regents.

The deposed shogun became a Buddhist monk in 1272. His priestly name was Gyōshō. He was a writer of Waka poetry.

The years in which Munetaka was shogun are more specifically identified by more than one era name or nengō.
