Miura Yoshiaki

Miura Yoshiaki (1092–1180) was lord of Kinugasa Castle in Sagami Province and head of the Miura clan. As Miura-no-suke he followed Minamoto no Yoshitomo in the Hōgen Disturbance of 1156 and the Heiji Disturbance of 1160, and later contacted the exiled Yoritomo.

When Yoritomo rose in 1180, he sent his son Yoshizumi with the clan host while staying, aged 89, to defend Kinugasa Castle against Hatakeyama Shigetada. After letting his kinsmen escape to Awa, he was killed when the castle fell.
