Sakenobe Hidetsuna (鮭延 秀綱; 1563 – 1646) was a Japanese samurai and commander of the Sengoku period. He was a chief vassal of the Mogami clan.[1] He was also the castle lord in command of Sakenobe castle.[2][3]
In 1581, he surrendered when his Sakenobe castle was attacked by Mogami Yoshiaki and soon he became Yoshiaki's chief vassal.[1]
In 1600, during the Battle of Sekigahara, he participated in the Siege of Hasedō.[1] He fought against Naoe Kanetsugu of the Western Army and showed a remarkable performance as a commander.[4][1][5]
In 1622, after Mogami clan was demolished by the Tokugawa Shogunate, he became a vassal of Doi Toshikatsu.[6][3][7]
