Description
Iwatsuchi-biko-no-Kami (also Ihatsuchi-biko-no-Kami) is a deity name preserved in the Kokugakuin University Deity Name Database. The database notes the kuni-umi / kami-umi (land- and kami-generation) section of Kojiki (712 CE) as the place of attestation. Interpretations of meaning and identification vary across commentaries, so IZANORA treats source attestation as the anchor for adding relationship lines.
