Kikkawa Tsunemitsu

Kikkawa Tsunemitsu (1192–1267) was the fourth head of the Kikkawa clan and a mid-Kamakura gokenin. He fought for the Kamakura shogunate in the Jōkyū War of 1221 and won distinction at the Battle of Uji Bridge outside Kyoto.

Besides his family's Kikkawa Manor in Suruga and Fukui Manor in Harima, he was appointed jitō of Ōasa Honjō in Aki Province, the foothold in which the clan later settled. His sons founded the Aki, Iwami and other branches of the Kikkawa.
