Tagori-hime-no-mikoto is one of the three Munakata goddesses, deities born from Susanoo's sword when purified by Amaterasu, and enshrined among the Munakata Taisha shrines in Kyushu. She is traditionally associated with the sea and safe passage across it, reflecting the maritime concerns of the ancient Munakata clan who served as guardians of trade and travel between Japan and the Korean peninsula. Her worship is closely tied to fishing communities and seafarers who have long looked to her for protection during voyages, though such benefits are matters of tradition and belief rather than established fact.
