Okuninushi and Tagorihime, one of the Munakata goddesses, are the parents of Ajisukitakahikone and Shitateruhime as recorded in the Kojiki.
During the ukei oath trial with Amaterasu, Susanoo's sword Totsuka-no-Tsurugi was chewed and spat forth as three female kami — Tagorihime, Tagitsuhime, and Ichikishimahime — the Munakata goddesses whom he claimed as his daughters.
⚠ The Kojiki attributes the three goddesses to Susanoo as the owner of the sword, though Amaterasu performed the chewing. The Nihon Shoki offers variant attributions.
