Yamatototokamiasachihara Maguhashihime
Yamatototokamiasachihara Maguhashihime was a person mentioned in the nihongi during the reign of Emperor Sujin.
She is said to have had a dream alongside Ohominakuchino Sukune saying that Ohotataneko needed to be placed as head priest of Ohomonomushi and Ichishinonagaochi as head priest of Ohokunidama as this would help abate the plague affecting the country. (Both of these kami names are names for Ōkuninushi).1
