Kikkawa Tomokane

Kikkawa Tomokane (1159–1200) was the second head of the Kikkawa clan and a Kamakura gokenin. He fought under Minamoto no Yoritomo in the Ōshū campaign of 1189, earning recognition for his bravery, and stood guard at the Fuji no Makigari hunt of 1193 during the Soga brothers' revenge.

In 1200, in the revolt against Kajiwara Kagetoki, he detected Kagetoki's party in Suruga and joined local warriors in attacking them. He slew Kagetoki's third son Kagemochi, famed for his courage, but died of his own wounds. His son Tomotsune was rewarded with the jitō post of Fukui Manor in Harima.
