The origin of the name for Prince Yamashiro no Otsutsukimawaka seemed to been taken from a location; this fact was supported by the writings of the "Wamyo Ruijusho" (Kango [Chinese characters]-Japanese Dictionary in mid Heian period): 'Tsutsuki, Tsuzuki, Tsuzuki-gun County, Yamashiro Province' (the current location is the area of Fugen-ji shimo in Kyotanabe City.) |
