[[under construction}} Jingo-keiun (神護景雲) was a Japanese era name (年号,, nengō,, lit. "year name") after Tenpyō-jingo and before Hōki. This period spanned the years from 767 through 770. The reigning empress was Empress Shōtoku-tennō (称徳天皇). This was the same woman who had reigned previously as the former Kōken-tennō (孝謙天皇).[1]

Change of era

  • 767' Jingo-keiun gannen (神護景雲元年): The new era name was created to mark an event or series of events. The previous era ended and the new one commenced in Tenpyō-jingo 3, on the 18th day of the 8th month of 767.[2].

Events of the Jingo-keiun era

  • September 8, 669 (Jingo-keiun 3, 4th day of the 8th month]): In the 5th year of Shōtoku-tennō 's reign (称徳天皇5年), the empress died; and she designated Senior Counselor Prince Shirakabe as her heir.[3]
  • 770 (Jingo-keiun 3, 4th day of the 8th month): The succession (‘‘senso’’) was received by a 62-year-old grandson of Emperor Tenji. [4]
  • 770 (Jingo-keiun 3, 1st day of the 10th month): Emperor Kōnin was is said to have acceded to the throne (‘‘sokui’’) in a formal ceremony;and the nengō was changed to Hōki on the very same day.[5]
