The Amakusa were a minor power on [[Amakusa Island]]. They rebelled with others against [[Konishi Yukinaga]] in [[1589]] and were put down. Although the name Amakusa is famous thanks to [[Amakusa Shiro|Amakusa Shirô]], the spiritual leader of the [[Shimabara Rebellion]] of [[1637]]-[[1638|38]], Shirô was not related to the Amakusa family, instead being a son of a certain [[Masuda Yoshitsugu]].
