*''Other Names'': 三宅三郎高徳 ''(Miyake Saburou Takanori)''
*''Japanese'': 児島高徳 ''(Kojima Takanori)''
Kojima Takanori was a supporter of [[Emperor Go-Daigo]] of the Southern Court during the wars of the 14th century [[Nanbokucho|Nanboku-chô period]], and appears in the warrior epic ''[[Taiheiki]]''. He has come to be regarded as a model of Imperial loyalty. Traditionally, Takanori has also been worshipped as the progenitor of the [[Miyake clan]], though many historians consider this connection specious.<ref>''Edo Daimyô Hyakke'' 江戸大名百家.

The [[Ukita clan]] of [[Bizen province]] also claim descent from Takanori.
