Mōri Tokichika

Mōri Tokichika (c. 1250 – 1341) was a Kamakura-period gokenin and the fourth son of Mōri Tsunemitsu, inheriting from him in 1270 the jitō stewardship of Yoshida manor in Aki and founding the Aki Mōri line.

After the shogunate's fall in 1333, he saved his house: his son Sadachika and grandson Chikahira joined the Southern Court, but in 1336 Tokichika arranged their submission to Ashikaga Takauji in Aki. In 1337 he passed Yoshida manor to his great-grandson Motoharu, ancestor of the later Mōri lords.
