History

The Tamaki moved into this territory from Yamashiro during the Nanbokucho Period (1300's) establishing castles at (Kii) Tsuruga Castle and Tedori Castle from which they established their territory abolishing the Kawakami who ruled it from (Kii) Yamazaki Castle.

The Tamaki ruled for around 200 years splitting the Hidaka River basin with the Yukawa at (Kii) Kameyama Castle.

In 1585, in response to Hideyoshi's invasion of Kishu, Naoharu Yukawa, the lord of Kameyama Castle, proposed that they join forces to oppose Hideyoshi, but the Tamaki refused. They set fire to the Yukawa's lands and the Yukawa attacked Tedori Castle in response. In the face of impending invasion but Hideyoshi, the Yukawa took Tedori Castle. When attacked by Hideyoshi's forces under Sengkou Hidehisa the Yukawa set fire to the castle and escaped. The Tamaki remained as minor allies of Hideyoshi and retained Tedori Castle. The Tamaki sided with the Western Forces at the Battle of Sekigahara and were exiled following their loss. The castle was abandoned at this time
