Ohoyenomiko

Ohoyenomiko (大江王) was the son of Emperor Keikō and Kagurohime.

The kojiki says his mother was the daughter of Sumeiroohonakatsuhiko, who was the great-grandson of Yamato Takeru. This would have to be an error in the records as it would mean the Emperor married his great-great-granddaughter.1
