The title Sukune (which was written as "宿禰" or "足尼" in Japanese) was, particularly from the fourth century to the sixth, often added after the name of influential gozoku (local ruling families, who are not related to the royal family) (e.g., NOMI no Sukune, TAKENOUCHI no Sukune, TAKARI no Sukune and so on). |
宿禰(足尼とも書く)の称号は4世紀から6世紀にかけて、しばしば(王族ではない)有力豪族の名に下接して使われていた(例:野見宿禰・武内宿禰・多加利足尼など)。 |
