[edit] Shosoin is a proper noun

Shosoin is today a proper noun that specifically means only the treasure house at Todai-ji. This is the likely cause of some confusion seen in the previous text.

Referrals to the treasure houses (called 宝物庫 etc. in Japanese) at other temples are removed from this page.

The second sentence is still open for review. --OhMyDeer 05:06, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Agree. Imperial House Agency uses SHOSOIN, so we should use SHOSOIN as term. See: http://shosoin.kunaicho.go.jp/
