Kuni-no-Tokotachi

In Shinto faith, Kuninotokotachi (国之常立神; Kuninotokotachi-no-Kami, in Kojiki) (国常立尊; Kuninotokotachi-no-Mikoto, in Nihon Shoki ) or Kuni-toko-tachi is one of the two Gods born from "something like a reed that arose from the soil" when the Earth was chaotic. In the Kojiki, he is the first of the seven generations of Divinities born after the first five divinities were born at the time of the creation of the Universe. In the Nihon Shoki, he is the first of the three divinities born after Heaven and Earth were born out of chaos, and is born from something looking like a reed-shoot growing between heaven and earth. He is known by mythology to reside on top of Mount Fuji (富士山).
