Signature

This 15th-century sovereign was named after the 12th-century Emperor Tsuchimikado and go- (), translates literally as "later"; and thus, he could be called the "Later Emperor Tsuchimikado", or, in some older sources, may be identified as "Emperor Tsuchimikado, the second," or as "Emperor Tsuchimikado II."
