abstract
  • The Uesugi clan (上杉氏, Uesugi-shi or Uesugi-uji), sometimes romanized as the Uyesugi clan, is one of the few samurai families from ancient times to remain active in Japan today. For Samurai Warriors, they are represented in gray or white clothing. The clan's origins date as far back as the Fujiwara family and their ancestors were from the Kanjujiryu branch of the clan. The clan's founder was the second son of Fujiwara no Kiyofusa, Uesugi Shigefusa. He started the Uesugi name when he moved to Ayabe, Kyoto in the Kyoto Prefecture. Specifically, he changed his family name to the particular part of land under his command, Uesugi Town. His sons chose various paths after his passing and spread across the countryside in different places. There are at least eight different branches of the family, some of whom lasted longer than others or merged into other branches or clans. A few branches include the Yamaura-Uesugi, Fukuya-Uesugi, Sanponji-Uesugi, Hachijo-Uesugi and the Jojo-Uesugi. The most famous branches would be the Yamanouchi-Uesugi and Yonezawa-Uesugi. Kenshin was known for being fond of his various war banners and was said to have used them to signal the tide of battle. For instance, he would ride with his horse insignia while marching his army into battle. When he wanted his army to charge, the banners would then switch to the "dragon" flags. His Bishamonten standard was said to have been reserved for his entrances and victory marches.
