Description
Utsushikunitama-no-Kami is a deity name preserved in the Kokugakuin University Deity Name Database. The database notes the Suga-no-Miya (Suga Palace) and Ne-no-Katasu-Kuni Homon (visit to the Ne-no-Katasu-Kuni) sections of Kojiki (712 CE) as the places of attestation. Interpretations of meaning and identification vary across commentaries, so IZANORA treats source attestation as the anchor for adding relationship lines.
