Besides, the position of 'provincial constable' was not established this time; the establishment of 'provincial steward' and 'General Constable' in each province for the purpose of searching and capturing MINAMOTO no Yoshitsune and MINAMOTO no Yukiie, which was of nominal priority, ordered in 1185, and the origin of provincial constable which would continue until the Muromachi period lay in the authority which was agreed between Cloistered Emperor Goshirakawa, Kanezane KUJO and Yoritomo to enforce 'provincial constables in all the provinces' when Yoritomo came out to Kyoto for the first time in 1190.
また、「守護」職はこのときではなく、1185年での要求は源義経・源行家の捜索・追捕を名目とした一国単位の「国地頭」と「総追捕使」であって、室町時代にまで繋がる守護職の発端は1190年（建久元年）に頼朝が初めて上京し、後白河法皇や九条兼実らと合意した「諸国守護」を奉行する権限にあるとされている。
