The Kamakura period is considered to be the beginning of Japan's feudal era, and some believe it is the first stage in the evolution of Japan's feudal system from an aristocratic lordship to a samurai lordship.
In the early Kamakura period, the ancient manor system of the Heian period continued. A manor consists of several "famous fields". The famous owner obtains the private rights of the famous fields from the manor lord and manages them independently.
The Kamakura period was the era of the samurai regime in Japanese history with Kamakura as the national political center. It began with the establishment of the Kamakura shogunate in 1185 (the first year of the Bunji period) and ended with the demise of the shogunate in 1333, a journey of 149 years.
