(14105) Nakadai is an asteroid of the main belt , which on 6 October 1997 by the Japanese astronomer Kin EnDate and Kazuro Watanabe at Kitami Observatory ( IAU code 400) in Kitami , sub-prefecture Okhotsk in Hokkaido was discovered.

The asteroid belongs to the Eos family, a group of asteroids, which typically have large semiaxes from 2.95 to 3.1 AU , bounded inward by the Kirkwood gap of the 7: 3 resonance with Jupiter , and orbital inclinations between 8 ° and 12 °. The group is named after the asteroid (221) Eos . The family is believed to have emerged from a collision more than a billion years ago.

(14105) Nakadai was named on July 22, 2013 after the Japanese actor Tatsuya Nakadai (* 1932), who through his roles in films by the director Akira Kurosawa , for example Kagemusha - The Shadow of the Warrior (1980) and Ran (1985), got known. In 2011 the asteroid (254749) was named Kurosawa after Kurosawa .
