Abstract
It was not until 1183 that Yoritomo received the official imperial seal of approval to defend it and Japan from the rule of Kiyomori and the Taira Clan. Then it was not until 1184 that the imperial court gave Yoritomo approval to set up a military government or Bakufu in Kyoto. And it was not until 1185, when the Taira had finally been defeated at the Battle of Dannoura, that Yoritomo was able to establish the Bakufu in Kamakura and in the process giving rise to the birth of the Kamakura period. At the heart of the Kamakura was the legacy it left for the future of Japan.
