Shimazu Hisatoyo was the eighth head of the [[Shimazu clan]].
A son of 6th clan head [[Shimazu Ujihisa]], he aided his elder brother [[Shimazu Motohisa]] in the management of the clan's territory from his base at [[Mukasa castle]] in [[Hyuga province|Hyûga province]]. When Motohisa suddenly died in [[1411]], since his only son, [[Shimazu Morikuni]], also known as Chûô-ôshô, had already taken the tonsure and become a monk, Hisatoyo returned to [[Kagoshima]] to become Motohisa's heir, succeeding him as head of the clan.
[[Ijuin Yorihisa|Ijûin Yorihisa]], a relative of Motohisa's father-in-law, joined with the Sôshû branch of the Shimazu clan in rising up against Hisatoyo, but Hisatoyo managed to crush the rebellion by [[1413]]. Yorihisa was forced to commit suicide in [[1417]], following the suicide of his ally, [[Shimazu Hisayo]] (grandson of [[Shimazu Korehisa]] of the Sôshû Shimazu); Hisatoyo then defeated Korehisa's son [[Shimazu Tadatomo]] in [[1421]], and Korehisa's son (and father of Hisayo) [[Shimazu Morihisa]] the following year.
Hisatoyo died in [[1425]] at the age of 51, and was buried in the Shimazu clan cemetery at [[Fukusho-ji|Fukushô-ji]]. He was succeeded by his son [[Shimazu Tadakuni]]; Hisatoyo's other two sons, [[Shimazu Mochihisa]] and [[Shimazu Suehisa|Suehisa]], founded new branches of the family.
