The Daidōji clan were a Japanese samurai kin group in the Kamakura period.[1]
History
The Daidōji were descendants of the Taira.[1]
Daidōji Masashige was the governor of Suruga Province with an annual income of 180,000 koku. In 1590, his forces were defeated by Maeda Toshiie. In 1591, Masahige killed himself (harakiri).[1]
The Daidōji were important retainers under the Hōjō clan during Japan's Sengoku period. However, when the Hōjō home castle of Odawara fell in 1590, the Daidōji were nearly all killed.[citation needed].
