Minamoto no Nariyori

Minamoto no Nariyori (976–1003) was a mid-Heian noble of the Uda Genji line, the eldest son of the councillor Minamoto no Sukenori. The Sonpi Bunmyaku gives him junior fifth rank and posts in the imperial guards.

Genealogies relate that he settled on the Sasaki Manor in Gamō District, Ōmi Province, and was the ancestor after whom the Sasaki clan named itself, although modern scholars note this identification is debated. Skilled with bow and horse, he died in 1003, aged only twenty-eight.
