[[File:Shimazu-tadataka.jpg|right|thumb|320px|Grave of Shimazu Tadataka at [[Fukusho-ji|Fukushô-ji]] in [[Kagoshima]]]]

*''Japanese'': [[島津]]忠隆 ''(Shimazu Tadataka)''
Shimazu Tadataka was the 13th head of the [[Shimazu clan]].
The second son of [[Shimazu Tadamasa (1463-1508)|Shimazu Tadamasa]], he became ''[[shugo]]'' of [[Satsuma province|Satsuma]], [[Osumi province|Ôsumi]], and [[Hyuga province|Hyûga provinces]] upon the death of his older brother [[Shimazu Tadaharu]] in [[1515]].
He is said to have prevented an invasion of the [[Ryukyu Kingdom|Ryûkyû Kingdom]] plotted by [[Miyake Kunihide]] in [[1516]]; other sources indicate, however, that this is a falsehood concocted by the Shimazu clan, as part of schemes to place Ryûkyû into Satsuma's debt, so that the Shimazu could push for a monopoly on trade with Ryûkyû. The plot is discussed in a letter dated 1533/9/16, from the [[karo|House Elders]] under [[Shimazu Takahisa]], sent to the [[Sanshikan]] (chief royal advisors) of Ryûkyû.
He died on [[1519]]/4/4 at the age of 23; as he had no heir, he was succeeded by his younger brother [[Shimazu Katsuhisa]].
