Shimazu Tadamune was the fourth head of the Shimazu clan, and fourth Shimazu jitô & shugo of Satsuma province.
He fought alongside his father, Shimazu Hisatsune, in the 1281 defense against the second Mongol invasion, and became clan head upon Hisatsune's death in 1284. Around that time, either Hisatsune or Tadamune became the first Shimazu head to relocate from Kamakura and take up permanent residence in Kagoshima. From then on, the Shimazu would administer their territory relatively directly, rather than appointing representatives (shugo dai) to administer in their stead.[1]
Tadamune was known for his poetry, as well as for his participation in battle and rule. Two of his waka were included in the Shin-gosen wakashû, and one in the Zoku senzai wakashû.[2]
