Early life
Hisataka was born into the fifth generation of the Shimazu family line, adopting 'Kabayama' as his surname in respect to the birch (樺, kaba)-covered mountaintop (山, yama) upon which his castle domain had been constructed.

In 1609, Hisataka led military forces of the Shimazu clan against the Kingdom of Ryukyu. The Invasion of Ryukyu was successful.
