Isetsuhiko-no-mikoto (伊勢都彦命 or 伊勢都比古命) is an obscure Japanese god of the wind who appears in both the Fudoki of Ise Province (surviving only in the form of excerpts found in other writings) and the Fudoki of Harima Province.
Two stories about Isetsuhiko appear in the extant fragments of the Ise Fudoki.
One excerpt[1][2][3] involves his surrender of his land (what would become Ise) to Amenohiwake-no-mikoto (天日別命), who claimed it in the name of the Emperor Jimmu.
It is said in the Ise Fudoki: Isetsuhiko-no-mikoto (伊勢都比古命) is also mentioned in passing in the Fudoki of Harima Province as the son of Iwa-no-ōkami (伊和大神), god of Iwa Shrine, believed to dwell in Iseno (伊勢野, part of modern Hayashida-chō, Himeji City) with his sister, Isetsuhime-no-mikoto (伊勢都比売命).
[7][8][9][d] Since the Edo period, a number of authors - among them the Kokugaku scholar Motoori Norinaga[10][11] - have attempted to identify Isetsuhiko with the god Takeminakata who briefly appears in the Kojiki, due to perceived parallels between the two deities.
