In Japanese History, Kitabatake Chikafusa is refered as "kuge (公家)", never as Samurai. Historical term 'Samurai' means mainly military servant, neary equal 'Bushi'. Kitabatake family is rarely refered as Samurai. If we regard them as Samurai, it is since Chikafusa's son, Akiie's generation. Chikafusa was the highly office holder Kugyo (公卿) as Court nobility Kitabatake family of Murakami-Genji (村上源氏). Murakami-Genji was Court nobility, not was military nobility like Seiwa-Genji (清和源氏). If you can read Japanese, please refer ja:北畠家, ja:北畠親房, ja:侍, and ja:武士.--Kotoito
You are obviously more well-informed on this subject than myself. I assumed that since Chikafusa and his son both led forces in battle, they must have been samurai. I defer to your judgment. LordAmeth 02:12, 30 January 2006 (UTC)Reply
