Kunisu - Trash

Japanese: 国栖 - くず

Also written as Kunisu or Kunisu. A resident who is said to have lived in Yoshino District, Yamato Province, and Ibaraki District, Hitachi Province. (1) In the Kojiki, Emperor Jimmu's chapter, the national deity Iwaoshiwakunoko is described as "the ancestor of Yoshino Kunisu." In the Nihon Shoki, the entry for the 19th year of Emperor Ojin's reign, it is said that "he was a very simple person, and would always pick and eat mountain delicacies, and also boil frogs as a seasoning, which he called Momi." When Emperor Ojin visited Yoshino Palace, the Kunisu people offered sake, and in court ceremonies, this was called "Kunisu-no-musu," and examples of this included offering sacrifices and playing songs and flutes at various Shinto ceremonies such as the Daijo-e and the New Year's Sechie. (2) The Hitachi no Kuni Fudoki states that Kuninsu in the same province was also called “Tsuchikumo” or “Yatsukahagi.”

国樔，国巣とも書く。大和国吉野郡，常陸国茨城郡に居住したといわれる住民。 (1) 『古事記』神武天皇の段には，国神イワオシワクノコを「吉野国巣之祖」とする。また『日本書紀』応神天皇 19年の条によれば「その人となり，甚だ淳朴なり，毎 (つね) に山の菓を取りて食う，また蝦蟆 (かえる) を煮て上味とす，名づけて毛瀰 (もみ) という」と伝える。応神天皇が吉野宮に行幸した際，国樔人が醴酒 (こざけ) を献じた故事にちなみ，宮中儀礼では「国栖奏」と称し，大嘗会，元日節会 (せちえ) などの神事諸節会に，御贄を献じ歌笛を奏するを例とした。 (2) 『常陸国風土記』には同国の国巣は「つちくも」「やつかはぎ」とも称したとある。
