...It is a word that has been used for a long time from ancient times to modern times, meaning to intervene, interfere, go between, or act as a middleman.

Kuchiiri kannushi refers to the priest who mediated between the donors and the shrine when the Mikuriya (kitchen) was established at Ise Shrine.
