The Kuroda were descended from the [[Sasaki clan|Sasaki]] family although their early history is hazy. They emerged in the Sengoku Period as retainers of the [[Odera clan|Odera]] of [[Harima province]]. After [[1577]] they entered the service of [[Oda Nobunaga]] and through the efforts of [[Kuroda Yoshitaka]], a close companion of [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]], they rose in importance. Yoshitaka and Nagamasa supported [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]] in the [[Sekigahara Campaign]] and afterwards their family held a considerable fief in [[Chikuzen province]].
