Shimazu Hisataka, also known as Bungo, Matahachirô, and Shikibu, was a prominent Shimazu clan retainer, who served under three 19th century daimyô: Shimazu Narioki, Nariakira, and Tadayoshi. Born into the clan ruling over Kajiki, he served as a jôdai karô under Narioki and Nariakira. He was named Ryûkyû-gakari upon the death of Zusho Shôzaemon in 1848/12, and thus came to oversee affairs at the Ryûkyû-kan in Kagoshima.[1]
