Mōri Tsunemitsu

Mōri Tsunemitsu was a Kamakura gokenin and the fourth son of Mōri Suemitsu, his name granted by the shōgun or regent; he later took monk's vows as Jakubutsu.

During the Hōji War of 1247 he was in Echigo and escaped the ruin that killed his father and brothers: the Sagami estate was lost, but through the Nagai family's intercession he kept the jitō posts of Sahashi in Echigo and Yoshida in Aki. He later passed Yoshida to his fourth son Tokichika, ancestor of the warlord Mōri Motonari.
