The Gamô of [[Omi province|Ômi province]] were descended from [[Fujiwara Hidesato]] (ca.[[940]]), governor of Shimotsuke Province who clashed with [[Taira Masakado]] and beheaded him in 940. Hidesato's descendant [[Gamo Narutoshi|Gamô Narutoshi]] settled in the Gamô district of Ômi Province and took its name. Narutoshi's son [[Gamo Toshitaka|Gamô Toshitaka]] served [[Minamoto Yoritomo]] during the [[Gempei War]] ([[1180]]-[[1185|85]]) and the Gamô would later support [[Ashikaga Takauji]]. They came to be retainers of the [[Rokkaku clan]] and served them into the Sengoku Period. In [[1523]] an internal struggle broke out between the brothers [[Gamo Takasato|Gamô Takasato]] and [[Gamo Hideyuki|Hideyuki]], prompting [[Rokkaku Sadayori]] to intervene and force Hideyuki to abandon his castle (an action on Sadayori's part which is sometimes described as foreshadowing the later 'shirowari' (or one castle policy). The Gamô joined [[Oda Nobunaga]] in 1568 and would grow powerful in the service of Nobunaga and, later, [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]]. The Gamô survived into the Edo Period but died out with the passing of [[Gamo Tadatomo|Gamô Tadatomo]] in [[1634]].
