An overview of the battlefield of Sekigahara. North is to the upper-right. Mount Nangu dominates the center of the picture, Mount Matsuo is to the left, and Mount Sasao is towards the upper-right. The town of Sekigahara is nestled in the small valley to the left of center.

This view, looking roughly towards the south-west, is similar to what Tokugawa Ieyasu's unit would have seen towards the beginning of the battle. Mount Nangu is at the left, Mount Sasao towards the right, and Mount Matsuo to the left of center. Mount Tengu, where Ukita Hideie's unit of 17000 men were situated, is to the right of center.

Looking towards the south at the location of the city of Sekigahara. Ieyasu's attack would come from the left of the screen to the right, where Ishida Mitsunari's troops would receive the brunt of the attack.
