English: According to Taiheiki, the number of samurai that committed suicide by disembowelment was 283 in the Hojo clan, and their vassals numbered 870, but this could be an exaggeration to highlight their tragedy.

English: The folklore of the region maintains the war dead of Tosho-ji Temple were removed and buried here.
Japanese: 昔から東勝寺での戦死者の遺体をこのやぐら群に葬ったとの伝承があった。
English: When housing lots were developed during the decade from 1965, the caves were destroyed and a part of a gorinto (a gravestone composed of five pieces piled up one upon another) was found, in which the date "July 18, 1333" was inscribed.
Japanese: 昭和40年代の宅地開発の際にやぐらが破壊され、「元弘三年五月廿八日」の銘のある五輪塔の一部が発見された。

English: Unlike temples, shrines, churches of old-line religions, that are implicitly assumed to be part of some sort of religious schools, sects, and superior organizations, the term Tanritsu, that mainly refers to 'Tanritsu-jiin' (nonsectarian temples) (Buddhism), 'Tanritsu-jinja' (independently incorporated shrines) (Shinto), and 'Tanritsu-kyokai' (non-denominational churches) (Christianity), is in many ways used to show that they are exceptional beings and that they are not assumed to be part of any religious schools, sects or superior organizations.
Japanese: 主に「単立寺院」（仏教）「単立神社」（神道）「単立教会」（キリスト教）というように、何らかの宗派・教派・上位組織に属している事が暗黙に前提される伝統宗教の寺院・神社・教会等に対して、その前提に立たない特例的存在であることを示す際に用いられることが多い。
English: Tanritsu Shukyo Dantai refers to Tani Shukyo Dantai (a unitary religious organization) that doesn't belong to any Hokatsu Shukyo Dantai (comprehensive religious organizations that take in religious schools, sects, and religious communities).
Japanese: 単立宗教団体とは、いかなる包括宗教団体の傘下にも属さない単位宗教団体のことである。
English: Any Tanritsu Shukyo Dantai that are certified as religious corporations are called Tanritsu Shukyo Hojin (single religious corporations).
Japanese: 単立宗教団体のうち、宗教法人として認証されたものを単立宗教法人という。
English: Tani Shukyo Dantai refer to religious organizations that are contained in the category of article 2, number 1 of the religious corporation act, such as shrines, temples, churches, and places for missionary work.

English: Hokatsu Shukyo Dantai refer to religious organizations, that are contained in the category of article 2, number 2 of the religious corporation act, that take in Tani Shukyo Hojin such as religious schools, sects, and religious communities.
Japanese: 包括宗教団体とは、宗教法人法第2条第2号の範疇に含まれる宗教団体で、宗派・教派・教団など単位宗教法人を包括する宗教団体である。
English: Being Tanritsu does not mean it has uniqueness in the aspects of its belief or thought, because it is only a matter of the legal system.
Japanese: 単立であるというのは、あくまで法制度上の問題であって、単立だからといって必ずしも思想・信条的な面で独自性があるとは限らない。
English: As seen in XX-shu (sect) Tanritsu, and XX-ha (school) Tanritsu, it is not unusual that some Tanritsu follow tenets and rituals of traditional religious schools or sects.
Japanese: ○○宗単立、○○派単立などというように、教義・儀礼は伝統宗派や教派に則っていることも珍しくない。
English: There are examples of Tanritsu that broke away from Hokatsu Shukyo Hojin through personnel tug-of-war.
Japanese: 人事を巡る争いから包括宗教法人を離脱し、単立となったような例も存在する。
English: In general, the term Tanritsu is understood as 'a religious corporation that is set up independently,' however, one theory holds that they linked one temple to 'Tan,' the space that every priest has in a meditation hall at a temple, to create the term Tanritsu to express a condition in which one is independent from a religious school.
Japanese: 一般に「単独で設立された宗教法人」の意味と理解されているが、一説に寺院の僧堂内にある各僧侶1人1人のスペースを「単」といい、そこから1寺院を単になぞらえ、宗派という集団から独立した状態を指すようになったともいう。

Japanese: 勘合符の主な目的は、朝貢国と明との国家間の位置づけを明確にすること(中華思想)と公私船の区別を行うことである。
English: The private ships in those days (partaking in private foreign trade) as typified by the wako (Japanese pirates) carried out trade in such a rough way that it caused a weakening of the Yuan dynasty which could not be overlooked.
Japanese: 当時の私船(民間貿易)は、倭寇に代表される手荒い貿易方法で、元(王朝)の衰退を惹起させる程のもので看過できないものであった。
English: As the Ming dynasty required Japan (that is, the bakufu [Japanese feudal government headed by a shogun]) to crack down on the wako, the bakufu continued to trade using official ships and prohibited private foreign trade in the hope that they could exercise total control over existing profits from private foreign trade; thus, trade using Kangofu was implemented.
Japanese: 明は日本(幕府)に倭寇の取り締まりを求め、幕府も公船で貿易を行ない、私貿易を禁止すれば、既存の民間貿易の利得を幕府側で一手に引き受けることが可能になるという目論見から、勘合符を用いる貿易が推し進められることとなった。
English: Between Japan and the Ming dynasty, Nichiji Kango or Nichijigo Kango (a tally or a trading license with the Japanese letter of nichi [日]) and Honji Kango (a tally or a trading license with the Japanese letter of hon [本]) were used; to trade, a Honji Kango (of which there were one hundred copies: Honji Nos.1 to 100) was brought by the Japanese envoy ship to the seaport in Ming (Ningbo), and compared with the Honji Kango teibo that the Ming dynasty possessed.
Japanese: 日明間では、日字勘合(日字号勘合)と本字勘合があり、本字勘合(百道：本字一号～百号)を日本の遣明船が明の港(寧波)に持参し、明の所有する本字勘合底簿と照合する。

English: The real Kangofu no longer exists, however, 'Boshi Nyuminki' (The Account of the Visit to Ming in 1468), the Zen priest Tenyo Seikei's travel report to Ming, includes an illustration of 'Honji Ichigo' (Honji No. 1).
Japanese: 勘合符の実物は残されていないが、禅僧の天与清啓が明への渡航を記録した「戊子入明記」に「本字壱号」（本字壹號）の勘合符の例図が描かれている。
English: Basically, the Kangofu was a long sheet of paper, large in size (82 cm long by 36 cm across), on which the matching seals with letters in red ink and handwritten Chinese kanji numbers (one of which was written in red ink) were printed, and on the other side of the document the type and number of articles for presentation, supplementary cargo, the number of passengers including the chief delegate were listed.
Japanese: 基本的には、朱墨の半印がされた文字と、筆記の漢数字(一方は朱：赤で記載)のある大きめの縦長(縦：82cm横：36cm)の紙で、裏面には献上物、数、付帯貨物、正使以下の乗船者数などを記入したもの。

Japanese: 月山富田城の戦い（がっさんとだじょうのたたかい）とは1542年-1543年・1565年-1566年に尼子氏の本拠である出雲国の月山富田城（現；島根県安来市）を巡って発生した合戦である。
