Original Note:
NNN "samuraI" is somewhat of an elastic term and has been used for mercenaries, confidants, militants, and police, all regardless of tradition. This is supported by the fact that the sources provided by the person who wrote the note also refer to Yasuke as "the black samurai". https://web.archive.org/web/20200114161630/http://www.rfi.fr/hebdo/20150102-yasuke-samurai-samourai-etranger-africain-mozambique-japon/
