Hongô Tadaoki was the 19th head of the [[Hongo clan|Hongô clan]], also known as the Miyakonojô [[Shimazu clan|Shimazu]]. He later took on the name Hisatatsu.

Tadaoki accompanied [[Satsuma han]] ''daimyô'' [[Shimazu Yoshitaka]] on the latter's [[1710]] ''[[sankin kotai|sankin kôtai]]'' mission, arriving in [[Edo]] in the 11th month that year. He was meant to remain in Edo for an extended period, but fell ill, and with Yoshitaka's permission, returned to [[Kagoshima]] early the following year alongside the returning [[Ryukyuan embassy to Edo]].
