Also called the Amago clan, they were descended from Takahisa, a grandson of [[Rokkaku Takauji]]. Takahisa is said to have taken the name 'Amako' since he had been raised by a nun (ama (nun), ko (son)). He took [[Tomita castle]] in [[Izumo province]] for the Kyôgoku shugo and his descendants were powerful in Izumo from the 14th Century until the mid-16th Century. From their headquarters at [[Gassan-Toda castle]], the Amako challenged, with mixed results, the [[Ouchi clan|Ôuchi]] and, later, the [[Mori clan|Môri]]. They were destroyed as daimyô by [[Mori Motonari|Môri Motonari]] in [[1566]] and disappeared as a military force with the suicide of [[Amako Katsuhisa]] in [[1578]].
