However, it is plausible that the Yasaka-no-magatabma, which Amaterasu-oomikami bestowed Niniginomikoto at his departure from the Takamanohara, is not able to identify with the others mentioned above, because Ya means number, 8, and saka length, the Japanese foot. We can understand it literally a long necklace made of precious beads of green jadeite like curved drops, magatama. Hence, Amaterasu-oomikami would have made it newly for one of farewell presents to her grandson, Ninigi-no-mikoto.
