*Died: 663
*Japanese: 朴市田来津
Little is known about Echi no Takutsu. The details of his life are not covered well in the [[Nihon Shoki]], one of the oldest Japanese history texts. The date of his birth is unknown, but it is known that he died in [[663]] at the [[Battle of Hakusukinoe]].
The Nihon Shoki records that, in [[661]], [[Naka-no-Oe]] (soon to be the Emperor Tenji) sent a group of generals to help the country [[Paekche]] in its fight against [[Tang]] China and the kingdom of [[Silla]]. In almost what could be considered a side-note, the text states, "Takutsu, Hada no Miyakko, of Lower Shousen rank..." was sent to help Paekche.
Echi no Takutsu is said to have died a heroic death at Hakusukinoe, slaying "tens of men."
