Yamato no Kuni no Miyatsuko was a title held by the clan[a] who ruled the central region of the later Yamato Province.[1] Kuni no Miyatsuko were regional rulers subordinate to the Emperor of Japan. After the position was abolished they remained prominent as the priests of Ōyamato Shrine. Other kuni no miyatsuko this happened to include the Izumo clan of Izumo-taisha, the Aso clan of Aso Shrine, the Owari clan of Atsuta Shrine, the Munakata clan [ja] of Munakata Taisha,[2] and the Amabe clan of Kono Shrine[3]
Their Ujigami or clan god is Yamato Okunitama of Ōyamato Shrine[4] Some scholars interpret the kami as being a variant or epithet of Ōmononushi who has much more widespread worship.[5][6]: 22 There is a complex myth about the origins of modern worship of Yamato Okunitama during the reign of Emperor Sujin.[7][8][9][10]
