Sasaki no Yoshikiyo

Sasaki no Yoshikiyo (c. 1160–c. 1248), fifth son of Sasaki no Hideyoshi, was a Kamakura gokenin and ancestor of the Izumo Genji. He fought for the Taira against Minamoto no Yoritomo at Ishibashiyama in 1180 before changing sides after Fujigawa and serving the shogunate.

After the Jōkyū War of 1221 he won the shugo posts of Oki and Izumo, and escorted Go-Toba to Oki. In old age he yielded office to his sons and was last recorded in 1248, near ninety.
