The Saitō clan (斎藤氏 Saitō-shi?) was a Japanese samurai kin group from Echizen Province.[1]
History
The clan claimed descent from Fujiwara Toshihito.[1]
Saitō Dōsan (1494–1556) was the father-in-law of Oda Nobunaga. Dōsan was attacked by his own son, Saitō Yoshitatsu; and he died in battle.[2]
Saitō Tatsuoki was the son of Yoshitatsu. Tatsuoki was defeated by Oda Nobunaga in 1564; and the clan disappeared.[1]
