was a head of Japan's Minamoto clan who is perhaps most notable for having led, along with his son Minamoto no Yoshiie, the Imperial forces against rebellious forces in the north. This campaign would be called the Zenkunen War, and would be followed some years later by the Gosannen War. He held the title, passed down from his father, of ''Chinjufu-shogun'', Commander-in-chief of the Defense of the North. Yoriyoshi accompanied his father Minamoto no Yorinobu on his own missions to defend the Empire, quelling rebellions and disturbances. Thus he gained much of his knowledge of tactics and strategy. The Zenkunen War in which he fought began in 1051 and lasted, with some brief breaks, twelve years. In 1063, Yoriyoshi founded Tsurugaoka Hachiman-gū in Kamakura〔(鶴岡八幡宮 ) "History of Tsurugaoka Hachiman Shrine" (in Japanese) retrieved on February 4, 2009〕 which was to become, roughly a century later, the primary shrine of the Minamoto clan when they began the Kamakura shogunate. His son was Minamoto no Yoshiie, who "would go on to be admired by his contemporaries as the greatest warrior."〔 ==See Also== * Iwashimizu Hachimang%C5%AB * Hachiman 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Minamoto no Yoriyoshi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
