Tōyama Kageshige

Tōyama Kageshige, called Saburōhyōe, was a Kamakura-period warrior of Mino Province and the second son of Tōyama Kagetomo, founder of the Tōyama clan. He inherited the Awaki district, also called Tamuke, in the southern Tōyama manor, and in 1247 built Akechi Castle there.

From that seat he founded the Akechi Tōyama, one of the three leading Tōyama houses alongside the Iwamura and Naegi lines, and was succeeded by his son Kagenaga.
