Ichikishimahime is a Kunitsukami she is one of the three daughters of Susanoo born by his challenge with Amaterasu who are worshipped at Munakata Taisha.[3][4][2][5]
She was moved from Tashima Shrine to Munakata Taisha, so that shrine is called Moto-Munakata.[6][7][page needed]
She is also called Sayori-hime,[1][2] and is not to be confused with Matsura Sayohime who is said to be buried at Tashima Shrine.[8][9][10]
She is worshipped at Yagi Shrine under the name Sayori-hime no Mikoto.[1]
She was syncretized with many other deities in medieval times such as a younger sister of Empress Jingu, or as Benzaiten or as a daughter of Sagara.[5]
Syncretism with Benzaiten[change | change source]
Due to her status as a water deity, Benzaiten was also linked with nāgas, dragons, and snakes. Over time, Benzaiten became identified with the Japanese snake kami Ugajin. She also became identified with the kami Ichikishima-hime.
Benzaiten was also adopted as a female kami in Shinto, with the name Ichikishima-hime-no-mikoto (市杵島姫命).[11] This kami is one of three kami believed to be daughters of the sun goddess Amaterasu, the ancestress of the imperial family.
She is also believed by Tendai Buddhists to be the essence of the kami Ugajin, whose effigy she sometimes carries on her head together with a torii (see photo below).[12] As a consequence, she is sometimes also known as Uga (宇賀) Benzaiten or Uga Benten.[13]
