Anayama clan

Encyclopedia : A : AN : ANA : Anayama clan

The Anayama clan was a japanese clan that was descended from Takeda Nobutake, whose fifth son Yoshitake was given Anayama in Kai Province in the mid-14th Century of Japan. Due to this fact the Anayama split into two branches which went on to serve loyally under the Takeda clan following the Sengoku Period of the 16th century. However, following the annihilation of the Takeda during the year of 1582, the Anayama were virtually never heard of again.
