Yasaka-no-magatama

      Yasaka-no-magatama, which is one of the Three Sacred Treasures, is supposed to be a necklace made of precious beads. Izanagi-no-mikoto bestowed it on Amaterasu-oomikami, when he had borne her with washing his left eye after coming back from the death land and had ordered her to reign the Takamanohara. The next scene that Yasaka-no-magatama referred in the Kojiki is the time when Susanou-no-mikoto appealed to the Ukehii with Amaterasu-oomikami. It is Yasaka-no-magatama with that Susanow-no-mikoto blew off five male deities including father of Ninigi-no-mikoto, Masakatuakatukatihayahi-Amenoosihone-no-mikoto.
