Sunpu jōdai
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sunpu jōdai (駿府城代 Sunpu jōdai?) were officials of the Tokugawa shogunate in Edo period Japan. Appointments to the prominent office of castle warden at Shizuoka were exclusively fudai daimyō.[1] Conventional interpretations have construed these Japanese titles as "commissioner" or "overseer" or "governor."
This bakufu title identifies an official responsible for holding and defending Sunpu Castle (Sunpu-jō), also called Shizuoka Castle.[2]
