Six Degrees Below Hanzo Hattori

A. In this Six Degrees Below post, I'm looking at the familial genealogy of Hanzo Hattori. Hanzo Hattori was a famous samurai of the Sengoku Period who was in the service of the Matsudaira Clan an then, later the Tokugawa clan.. He was known to be an expert tactician and a spear fighter. He was a military commander with no ninjitsu training, but he was the boss of the Iga ninjas. He lived the last several years of his life as a monk named Sainen, dying at the age of 55.
