They specialise in mind related techniques, and they own and run a [[Yamanaka Flowers|flower shop]] in the village.<section end=summary /> == Overview == [[File:Yamanaka's flower shop.PNG|thumb|left|Yamanaka's flower shop.]] The members of this clan specialise in mind-centred techniques which makes them experts at intelligence gathering and espionage. They have also displayed [[sensor|sensory]] abilities and their techniques include transferring consciousness, reading minds and communicating telepathically. The flower symbol of this clan is the [[Wikipedia:Lespedeza|bush clover]] which symbolises a "positive love".<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 610, pages 12-13</ref> Most members of the Yamanaka clan wear their hair in a long ponytail, which appears to be traditional. The Yamanaka clan has a [[Yamanaka, Nara, and Akimichi Clan Memorial|special relationship]] with the [[Akimichi]] and [[Nara clan]]. For generations, members of these three families have formed an "Ino–Shika–Chō Trio", named after the first part of the names of the members. The Yamanaka members are the "Ino" in the trio. To strengthen the unity between the three clans, a member of the [[Sarutobi clan]] will give them special earrings to present to each generation head when they are promoted to [[chūnin]] after which they will swear their oaths. The earrings also symbolise that they are considered adults by their respective clans. == Trivia == * The name "Yamanaka" means "in the middle of the mountain". * [[Wikipedia:Lake Yamanaka|Lake Yamanaka]] is a Japanese lake that is located at the base of [[Wikipedia:Mount Fuji|Mount Fuji]]. * "Ino", "Shika" and "Chō" are the names of three cards needed for a highly prized trick of "Inoshikachō" in the Hanafuda. * In Chōji's flashback, when his father took him to the [[Yamanaka, Nara, and Akimichi Clan Memorial]]. Chōza stated that all three of these clans had mastered [[Hiden|secret]] techniques.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 533, page 12</ref> None of the Yamanaka's techniques are currently known to be secret, and in fact it had been previously stated that the Yamanaka clan's techniques weren't secret techniques. == References == <references/> [[de:Yamanaka-Clan]] [[ru:Клан Яманака]] Summary: Minor edit Follow this page Cancel
