Moreover, what has to be noticed is that each of complies of the Chronicle of Japan and the Kojiki expressed the mission of Jimmu-Tennow entrusted by his ancestral deities when Ninigi-no-mikoto had descended upon the Earth from the Heaven differently. In the Chronicle of Japan, the mission that the posterities of deities must accomplish in the Earth was to shine their glory all over the nation. In the Kojiki, on the other hand, the complier described it to govern the nation well. In brief, the expression of the former suggests that the essential role of the Tennow was to reign, while that of the later rather to rule respectively.
