Funai Domain
The Funai Domain (府内藩, Funai-han) was a Japanese domain of the Edo period, located in Bungo Province (present-day Ōita Prefecture in southern Japan).
History
Funai had been the castle of the Ōtomo clan; however, Toyotomi confiscated it during the lordship of Ōtomo Yoshimune. In 1600, Takenaka Shigetoshi, the cousin of Takenaka Shigeharu (Hanbei), received Funai Castle, and land rated at 20,000 koku; he had switched sides during the Sekigahara Campaign to support Tokugawa Ieyasu. The domain was then given to Hineno Yoshiakira in 1634; however, as he died heirless, the domain was given to the Matsudaira (Ogyū) clan. The Matsudaira clan remained lords of Funai until the Meiji Restoration.
