Legendary Super Saiya-Jin 4 wrote: When Hagoromo said his mother had the Byakugan and power of the Sharingan he simply meant that she had the Byakugan and the third eye which is a Rinnegan with the Sharingan powers. This can be proven by Madara who also had the same eye yet it was called a Rinnegan and Sasuke who also had the same eye yet it was called a Rinnegan in his case too. Especially since the Rinnegan came before the Sharingan (stated numerous times) and Kaguya is the mother of all dojutsu so clearly she had a Rinnegan too. Madara and Sasuke are also able to utilize Sharingan jutsu through the eye so that further reinforces the point.

i am sorry but non of what you say is correct. if hagoromo meant she had the Rinnegan he would have said so. his exact words were"beside the byakugan my mother had the power of the sharingan" he did not say she had the byakugan and the sharingan via the Rinnegan. that would not even make any sense. the Sharingan came first thats a fact. she had a sharingan that is another fact. the third eye is a concept in Hinduism of an eye that mirrors the persons inner being. since madara has the Rinnegan his third eye is by extension a Rinnegan and sasuke's eye is not the same eye as madara and kaguya. it has different tomoes. there is no ifs ands or buts about it. the third eye on her four head is a sharingan.
