Saonetsuhiko is a Japanese deity..[1][2][3][4] He was the ancestor of the Yamato clan and key figure in Jimmu's Eastern Expedition [en].[1][2] He was the first lord of the Yamato Province.[5] He is recognized for helping Emperor Jimmu navigate through the sea on his journey to the east.[1]

He has alternative names including Shinetsuhiko, and Uzuhiko[a][1] and Yamato no Sukune.[6]

His grandfather is Furutama [simple; en:draft; ja; fr].

Encounter with Emperor Jimmu

[change | change source]

Saonetsuhiko is featured in two main Japanese historical texts, the Nihon Shoki and the Kojiki.[1] And is mentioned in the Harima Fudoki.[2] The Nihongi mentions the meeting with Jimmu right after his departure from Hyūga Province, whereas the Kojiki places it fifteen years later, after Jimmu had traveled through several regions. Both texts, however, agree on Saonetsuhiko's importance as the first spirit to offer his services to Jimmu and as an ancestor to important Yamato clans.[1]

According to the Nihon Shoki, Saonetsuhiko met Emperor Jimmu during the emperor's campaign to the east. The meeting took place when Jimmu was leaving Hyūga Province by ship. At the "straits of Hayasui," Jimmu saw Saonetsuhiko fishing from a turtle's back or, in another version of the story, from a small boat, and using sails or wings. When Jimmu asked for his name, Saonetsuhiko introduced himself as a kunitsukami [en; fr] with a deep understanding of the sea routes. This was the first use of the term which refers to local earth gods in Shinto. He offered his services to Jimmu, who then pulled Saonetsuhiko into his ship using the tip of a pole.[1] This was the first usage of the term kunitsukami [en; fr].[1] This act led to his name Saonetsuhiko, which means "pole-root-man."[1][2][7]

Saonetsuhiko played a major role in Jimmu's Eastern Expedition [en]. He observed and reported on a magical divination that Jimmu performed to defeat a group of eighty bandits in Shiki of Yamato. This divination involved collecting earth from the Heavenly Mount Kagu for the ritual. Saonetsuhiko, and a group of special forces infiltrated enemy lines to collect this earth. Furthermore, Saonetsuhiko was a military strategist, he used a "weak army" as a decoy to attract the enemy's forces, then defeating them with a "strong army."[1]
