DescriptionYoroi, early 14th–early 15th century 02.jpg
English: This armor was donated to the Kurama Temple, near Kyoto, by one of the Ashikaga shoguns. During the late Edo period, it passed into the possession of Sakai Tadamochi (酒井忠用, 1723-1775), daimyō (lord) of the Obama fief in Wakasa province and military governor of Kyoto from 1752 to 1756. Sakai had the armor refurbished and its silk lacings replaced with leather ones in the style of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. The oldest part of the armor, the helmet bowl, dates from the late Kamakura period (early fourteenth century).
