Description
Ichikishima-hime-no-Mikoto is a deity name preserved in the Kokugakuin University Deity Name Database. The database notes the ukehi (oath) section of Kojiki (712 CE) as the place of attestation. This entry preserves the Kojiki orthography of the name and is treated as the database-level record corresponding to the broader Munakata-goddess tradition. Interpretations of meaning and identification vary across commentaries, so IZANORA treats source attestation as the anchor for adding relationship lines.
