Hidden village of Tametomo Minamotono

thicket of trees is located on the eastern hill where you can see the bustling city of Kamiooka, and the area is called Hachiro Valley.
Tame morning was the eighth child of Tameyoshi Minamotono, and was called Chinzei Hachiro, but in the rebellion of Hogen, both his father and his father fought along with Emperor Takashi Toku, and became a deceased person due to his break. It is said that he lived here.
On the steep cliff of this hill, there is a "Tame Dynasty Shrine", which is still being memorialized by neighbors on April 25.
Also, at the foot of this hill, there is a Kasaishi, which is said to be the tomb of the wife of Tamutomo.
And in 1869, when the cliffs of this hill collapsed, and when a pot with an old mirror was found in the side hole, it was said that this was a hiding hole in the morning. .
It is said that Tame Dynasty worshiped the gold guardian of children and travelers on a daily basis, and it is said that the child education Jizo near Fuji Misaka in Hachirogaya has a connection with Tame Dynasty.
Although it has nothing to do with the legend of Tame Dynasty, there is a plate monument in the places of Kamiookahigashi, and there is an old house that has a legend with the descendants of Takeshi Kamakura.
There are many hidden villages of Heike throughout the country, but there is another rare hidden village of Genji in Konan Ward.
It is a place called Usagigaya, which is close to Kasuga Shrine.
Minamoto no Yoritomo, who founded Kamakura shogunate, was washed away by Hiruga Kojima in Izu when he was a child. My younger brother, Yoshitsune, was sent to Kurama-ji Temple in Kyoto.
Yoritomo's uncle, Juro Aramiya, became a trainee in the form of mountain ascetic hermit, and asked the samurai and walked in search of the revival of Genji.
I don't think we should forget the achievements of the Gyoke, who passed the Heike and added the clue to creating the world of Genji.
However, Yoritomo had this gyoke and his younger brother, Yoshitsune. Among the servants of the Gyoke, there was a samurai from Tainosho in Kii no Kuni (Wakayama Prefecture).
It is reported that these people lived secretly in Usagigaya at the back of the Hinokawa tributary after Yoritomo and Gyoke became friends.

It is a story recorded in "Old Story of Hometown Konan 50 Episode".
