*''Reign: [[1259]]-[[1274]]''
*''Japanese'': 亀山天皇 ''(Kameyama tennou)''
Emperor Kameyama was an emperor of the [[Kamakura period]], reigning from [[1259]] to [[1274]].
As Retired Emperor, in [[1291]], Kameyama established the Buddhist temple [[Nanzen-ji]] on the grounds of one of his Kyoto villas.
His villa in the Arashiyama area of Kyoto was transformed in the 14th century into the Buddhist temple [[Tenryu-ji|Tenryû-ji]]. He is buried there alongside [[Emperor Go-Saga]] (r. [[1242]]-[[1246]]).
Alternation in the imperial succession between the [[Daikakuji and Jimyoin lines|lineages]] of his descendants, and those of his elder brother [[Emperor Go-Fukakusa]], developed in the 14th century into the [[Nanbokucho Period|Nanbokuchô Period]] of Northern and Southern Courts - multiple emperors at once with competing claims to the throne.
