Who was Yamanaka Yukimori?

Yamanaka Yukimori, also known as Yamanaka Shikanosuke or Shikasuke, was a Japanese samurai of the Sengoku period. He served the Amako clan of Izumo Province.

In art, his portraits conventionally show a crescent moon on the front of his helmet, but he was in fact born under a harvest moon. The crescent moon ornament he wore on his helmet was a token of good luck.
