Description
Tsuranagi-no-Kami is listed in the Kokugakuin University Classical Cultural Studies Project deity-name database. The source attestation is the country- and deity-making passage in Kojiki (712 CE) Upper Volume, where the name appears within the cluster of water-related deities born to Hayaakitsuhiko-no-Kami and his consort. Paired with Tsuranami-no-Kami, the name is read as a water-foam or shore deity by various commentators. IZANORA registers the name as a node and draws relations only from the cited source.
