Hachijōjima 八丈島

One of those defeated at Sekigahara ended up here, the first of about 1,900 exiles in 265 years.

For 265 years the island was a place of exile: about 1,900 people were sent here (「この265年間に約1,900人の流罪人が流されてきました」). The first was Ukita Hideie, one of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's Five Elders and commander of the army defeated at Sekigahara: he arrived in 1606 with a retinue of thirteen people and died here in 1655, forty-nine years later. His tomb is a cultural property of the island.
