The archer featured on these manhole cover Nasu no Yoichi of the Minamoto/Genji Clan during the Battle of Yashima.
It's interesting what might motivate you to do research and learn history, no? In my case, the things I happened to step on made me learn more about Japanese history. Similarly, I started looking up on Korean history through watching "sageuks/사극" which is Korean for historical drama. The need to know the true historical facts of the era kinda making me "study" again. It's one thing watching a historical drama. It's another when someone is quite OCD about getting the facts right. xD
