Yanushioshihodakewogoro

Yanushioshihodakewogoro (屋主忍男武雄心命) is mentioned during the reign of Emperor Keikō.

A divination was made to see if the Emperor should go to Kii to make sacrifice to all the kami.

After an unlucky divination the Emperor does not go and instead sends Yanushioshihodakewogoro (alternative readings in the nihongi state the man was called Takewigoro).

He ventures to Kashihara in Abi to make the sacrifice and then remains there for nine years and marries Kagehime and together they had a son called Takeuchi no Sukune.1
