Bito clan

The Bitô were a minor daimyô in Sanuki province. They submitted to the Chôsokabe and were later confirmed in their lands after Hideyoshi's invasion of Shikoku in 1584. The Bitô sent troops to serve in the invasion of Kyushu (1587) and in the course of the campaign performed in a cowardly manner, losing their homelands as a result.
