Usui Sadamitsu
Japanese · mortal · mid heian · Recorded classification
A short record, and deliberately so: the sources reachable in this session establish that he existed in the legend, that he is the third of four, and no more. He is here rather than blocked because the Shitennō are a named group of four and this programme has spent five traditions objecting to groups held as fractions. What is not known is stated as not known.
