Ota Gyuichi (太田牛一; 1527 – 1613) was a Japanese scribe and former samurai who served under Oda Nobunaga.
Biography
In June 1582, following Nobunaga's death during the Honnō-ji incident, Gyuichi met Nobunaga's former retainer Yasuke, who had become a rōnin follower his lord's death. Gyuichi sought Yasuke's help in locating kamons belonging to various clans in hopes of collecting them to fit in with his notes. When Yasuke asked why Gyuichi did not approach the crest owners directly, he claimed that he did not wish to involve his subjects, for fear that they would influence his writing or claim his work as their own. Yasuke subsequently agreed to help Gyuichi collect the kamons from castles across Japan.[1]
