The Kamisato clan (神里氏, Kamisato-shi) were the daimyō of the Satsuma han, which spread over Satsuma, Ōsumi and Hyūga provinces in island of Daichi, Teiko. The Kamisato clan together with the Akashi clan and Mibu clan is famous for being the three largest and most influential clans in feudal Teiko.
In 1848, the Kingdom of Teiko was established and Kamisato Tetsuya acceded to the Throne of Teiko. Since then all Princes of Teiko are direct descendants from the Kamisato clan.
