Kawano no Michikiyo

Kawano no Michikiyo was a late-Heian warrior chieftain of the Kawano clan in Kazahaya District, Iyo Province, and a son of Chikakiyo. When Minamoto no Yoritomo rose against the Taira in 1180, Michikiyo raised troops, drove out Taira no Koremori's provincial deputy and brought Iyo under his control.

In 1181 a Taira army under Taguchi Shigeyoshi and Nuka Nyūdō Saijaku invaded; Michikiyo held Takanawayama Castle until betrayed from within, then charged out and died fighting.
