Hatakeyama Kunikiyo

Hatakeyama Kunikiyo (d. 1362 or 1364), clerical name Dōsei, was a son of Hatakeyama Iekuni and a leading general of the early Ashikaga bakufu. After fighting at Tatarahama in 1336 he was made shugo of Izumi, later holding Kii and Kawachi. In 1353 he became the first Kantō kanrei, adviser to Kamakura kubo Ashikaga Motouji, and in 1358 arranged the murder of Nitta Yoshioki.

Ousted in 1361, he rebelled in Izu, surrendered at Shuzenji Castle, and died soon after. He is regarded as the founder of the Kawachi Hatakeyama line.
