Historical Context
Editorially reviewedKenmon Shokamon (c. 1467–1470) already draws an opened folding fan with a roundel for Mino Satake. The later index name 扇に日の丸 (Satake Izumi-nyūdō) is a label on that class of drawing; it does not make the disc a sun. Azuma Kagami Bunji 5 (1189) records a fan-object (出月) on a banner, which is not a kamon start and must not be used to back-date the Edo Kubota 五本骨扇に月丸. The public period remains Muromachi–Edo for the Kenmon Mino Satake plate.
Provenance: Kenmon Shokamon: Mino Satake fan-with-roundel. Later index 扇に日の丸 for Satake Izumi-nyūdō is a label; the disc is moon (月丸 / 出月), not sun. Azuma Kagami Bunji 5 (1189) is a banner fan-object, not a kamon start. Edo Kubota 五本骨扇に月丸 is a later named cut, not this Kenmon plate and not 1189.

2 referencesKenmon Shokamon (見聞諸家紋)
Kenmon Shokamon (見聞諸家紋), compiled c. 1467–1470. Album of house-paired drawings; later catalogues apply type-names as labels on those drawings, not as Muromachi captions on the plates.
Supports: Mino Satake opened folding fan with a roundel. Already splits ogi from hiōgi, uchiwa, and gunbai/tō-uchiwa. Okudaira is 唐団扇, not ogi. Later index 扇に日の丸 for Satake Izumi-nyūdō is a label, not a sun identity for the disc.
Azuma Kagami, Bunji 5 (1189)
Azuma Kagami, Bunji 5 (1189), records a fan-object (出月) tied onto a banner. That is a flag object, not a kamon start, and it does not lock a rib count or convert the disc into a sun.
Supports: Named in the approved meaning as a fence against back-dating Edo Kubota 五本骨扇に月丸 to 1189 and against reading the Satake disc as a sun.
